9X invented a refrigerator that can save 1.5 million people every year

Concerned about the situation in which people in developing countries find it difficult to access vaccines, British boys have developed mobile refrigerators that can keep vaccines easy, low cost.

In the face of millions of people in developing countries dying every year due to a lack of vaccines, Will Broadway, a student in Industrial Design and Technology at Loughborough University (UK), has a lot of concerns.

Finally, he invented a portable refrigerator capable of preserving the vaccine at the ideal temperature during transport and named Isobar , the BBC said.

Boys do not intend to make money from this invention but just want to support people in poor countries.

"My daily job is to make products for people who already have everything. But I want to do something for people who have almost nothing. I think vaccination is a basic human right." , 22-year-old male student shared.

Will will not apply for a patent because of concerns that this will hinder the process of making Isobar widely used in many places.

This invention helps him win the James Dyson award , an annual award for students around the world that has a highly innovative invention.

Isobar is capable of maintaining a temperature of 2 to 8 degrees Celsius for 30 days. It works based on the combustion of ammonia and water, creating vapor in ammonia for the cooling chamber.

According to the BBC, Will came up with the idea of ​​inventing a portable refrigerator in 2012 after traveling to Cambodia and some other countries in Southeast Asia. The trip motivated him to do something to help solve the problem of vaccination for the poor.

Before that, he worked in the field of medical device consulting and understood the process of big companies making money to protect health products.

Isobar can save about 1.5 million people worldwide every year.

"This type of product has a large price difference between regions due to transportation costs. Therefore, people in many countries cannot afford to buy them. Meanwhile, the best things should be widely spread to protect people, " said the young scientist.

It is estimated that Isobar can save about 1.5 million people around the world every year - an impressive figure.

Recently, Will Broadway has just received a diploma. He plans to bring Isobar into production.

In addition to vaccines, portable refrigerators also serve other medical needs such as blood storage. Even in developed countries, users can use it when traveling or in the case of a power outage.

However, the boy 9X confirmed that Isobar's main purpose is to preserve vaccines during transport in developing countries.
