Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a method for cooling one of: a chemical, a pharmaceutical or a biological material (6), wherein a liquid cryogen (C) or a gaseous phase (C') derived therefrom is passed (e.g. from a container (2)) to a heat exchanger (4) that is arranged in a compartment (5) in which said material (6) is arranged in order to cool said material (6), wherein the liquid cryogen (C) or gas (C') takes up heat in said heat exchanger (4) such that a warmer gaseous phase (C") of the cryogen (C) is generated which is guided out of the compartment (5) and re-used in the gaseous phase in another application (9). Further, the invention relates to a corresponding system (1).
