Some selected case histories (“tales”) will be examined and reviewed. Session will review common ammonia processes, e.g. refrigeration, power plant use, and others as well as containers and selected transportation packaging. Followed by Students receiving valuable hands on training with an ammonia cargo trailer (MC-331). Get a terrific combo of both lecture and hands on training.
