Abstract
Various embodiments relating to insulated and ventilated shellfish storage, for transport for example, are disclosed. An insulated container includes a bottom and walls defining an interior space to accommodate live shellfish. A COhandling feature to handle COthat is released into the interior space by the live shellfish is also provided. The COhandling feature could include, for example, a ventilated wall having a vent at a location toward the bottom of the insulated container, COscrubbing, a COaccumulation structure to accumulate CObelow the live shellfish, and/or a ventilated wall substantially parallel to the bottom to divide the interior space into an animal section to accommodate the live shellfish and a COaccumulation section to accumulate CO. Embodiments are based on a discovery by the inventor that COis a limiting factor for storage time of crustaceans out of water.
