Abstract

Portable Lactate Storage is a storage specifically designed and developed to store breastmilk. Now there are also some brands or former containers that have been marketed. However, this product has some additional features that can maintain the maximum breast milk up to five degrees Celsius within eight hours. Some experiments have been conducted with a questionnaire to find out consumers' needs and ensure that these products are able to maintain the breast milk freshness within a minimum of eight hours. Through the first creation and experimentation, the product uses expanded polystyrene and foil aluminium as the main structure and heat insulation material. Both of these materials are ideal for the formation of breast milk storage sites because they are light and able to withstand from the loss of large amounts of temperature at a time. The main device used for cooling is Peltier. This Peltier is connected to a rechargeable lead acid (12V battery). Cool surfaces are directed towards the product while the hot surface is directed out of the product. Using the coding set of Arduino Uno, this product will only operate if the temperature inside the Portable Lactate Storage exceeds 5 degrees Celsius. If the temperatures are less than five degrees Celsius then the system in this product will be deactivated except the main fan. The main fan is not disabled for the purpose of avoiding process condensation from occurring. As a result, this product can save battery life for long periods and the temperature can be maintained to keep the breast milk fresh.
