“RURAL FRIDGE” THAT DOES NOT REQUIRED ELECTRICITY:
A potter by caste, Mansukhbhai Raghavbhai Prajapati grew up with clay. In 2005, he thought, “why not build a rural fridge that would not need electricity”?, so he came out with Mitticool fridge.
The Mitticool fridge uses the same principal of cooling as the clay pots in which villagers store drinking water in India. At the top is a storage chamber for 10 liters of water, & the bottom compartments can hold 5-7 kg of vegetables, fruits, milk at a temperature that is 8-10 degrees lower than the room temperature, irrespective of the location. Vegetables & fruits stay fresh for around a week, he claims.
