Development of the refrigeration industry in Russia (from the second half of the 19th century to 1917)
In Russia in the 19th century, there were mainly two types of glaciers: deep in the ground and above-ground (similar to Canadian glaciers). Construction of glaciers of the first type required a lot of work, care in construction, and was more expensive. Therefore, such glaciers were built mainly by wealthy owners and businessmen-traders. The second type of glaciers, more simple, was built in almost every peasant household. In the 1990s, engineers Sokolovsky, Volkov, and later Vasiliev improved an ordinary village icehouse, adapting it for cold stores of food companies, as well as for the needs of artels and large agricultural producers.
