This paper addresses the fugitive emission factors of Reefer Container at use-phase and disposal-phase. The residual quantities and operation time of thirty nine Container were weighed, using a commercial recover of refrigerants to determine the emission factors at the use-phase. The emission factor at the disposal-phase, refrigerant is accomplished has not recycled, the residual rate was assumed that the emission factor. The average residual rate of thirty nine Container is determined to be $70.8{\pm}4.0%$. The emission factor at the use-phase is estimated to be $4.9{\pm}0.9%/yr$ in the case of using average age of 8.1 years and the average residual rate determined here. We estimate 162.7 g/yr for the average emission quantity of refrigerant per operating Container, while 2038.1 g for that per waste Container. Since the chemical compositions of refrigerant of waste Container were the same as those of new refrigerant, it is expected that the refrigerant recovered from waste Container can be reused for refrigerant.

The cold chain system in South-East Asia is requiring to maintain freshness of refrigerated or frozen food. In this study, Thermal storage system using Phase change material (PCM) was developed and evaluated its performance about temperature and cold keeping time. For various application of cold chain system, we developed portable cold box, cold roll container and freezing station. Keeping time on laboratory tests of portable cold box in case of refrigeration and freezing were 6 hours and 4 hours, respectively. Cold container was developed to 2.5 ton scale. Evaluation in Indonesia, it was showed to keep the setting temperature of $-10^{\circ}C$ over 40 hours at $30^{\circ}C$ of ambient air. Freezing station using PCM was kept over 24 hours under $-20^{\circ}C$.
