The Industrial Refrigeration Consortium (IRC) is a research and technology center formed through a collaborative effort between the University of Wisconsin–Madison and industry. This non-profit technology center headquartered in the College of Engineering at the UW–Madison has a simple mission: to improve the safety, reliability, efficiency, and productivity of industrial refrigeration systems.
The IRC pursues its mission by conducting applied research, delivering knowledge transfer, and providing technical assistance. Although their efforts are focused on industrial refrigeration systems that utilize anhydrous ammonia, they also work with systems that use other refrigerants.
Famous quotes containing the word industrial:
“If you do not regard feminism with an uplifting sense of the gloriousness of woman’s industrial destiny, or in the way, in short, that it is prescribed, by the rules of the political publicist, that you should, that will be interpreted by your opponents as an attack on woman.”
—Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)
