| Ironbridge Technologies,
Inc. (IBT), located in Austin Texas, is developing a novel
self-heating food packaging (SHFP) technology based on a
low-cost, food-safe solid-state fuel. The IBT SHFP
technology is designed to heat prepared foods in their
containers simply, safely and efficiently with a flameless,
thermal reaction. The composite fuel is formulated to give
high specific energy, high conversion efficiency, and high
heat transfer efficiency at a controlled heating rate. Early
opportunities are ready-to-serve soups and gourmet coffees. |
