Among the innovations are improved filters and systems that draw in more outside air.<\/p>\n<p>With some vaccines requiring super cold temperatures for storage and distribution, the refrigeration industry is also making important contributions to the battle against COVID.<br \/>\nAir conditioning and air quality in hospitals will be among the topics under discussion at RefriAmericas, which will bring together some 1,000 professionals from Latin America and the Caribbean, for a conference and exhibition in Miami on July 20-21.<\/p>\n<p>Innovation is sure to be on display among the booths of 74 exhibitors at the Miami Airport Convention Center.<\/p>\n<p>With rising fuel costs and concern about refrigerants that have high global-warming potential and are destructive to the environment, the industry is transitioning toward more sustainable and efficient HVAC and refrigeration technologies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat we\u2019re trying to do is the mitigation scenario,\u201d said Gildardo Y\u00e1\u00f1ez Angli, a refrigeration specialist at Bohn M\u00e9xico and a speaker at the conference.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 18px\">RefriAmericas<\/h3>\n<p>When: July 20-21.<br \/>\nWhere: Miami Airport Convention Center, 711 NW 72nd Ave., Miami.<br \/>\nRegistration: The exhibition is free.
