ABSTRACT:
A heat exchange unit for use in containers for cooling a food or beverage. The heat exchange unit includes inner end outer vessels with inner vessel having a plurality of thermally conductive discs in thermally conductive contact with an inner surface thereof. An adsorbent material is disposed between adjacent discs is compacted between them to provide maximum adsorbent material per unit volume. The outer surface of the inner vessel defines a plurality of grooves and is in thermally conductive contact with the inner surface of the outer vessel. The grooves provide flow paths for a gas such as carbon dioxide which is adsorbed onto the adsorbent material to flow and exit the heat exchange unit and to carry with it, the heat contained in the food or beverage, thereby lowering its temperatures.
