Summary:The author described the importance of refrigeration in Italy for fruits and vegetables. After a brief review of the Italian species of fruit involved in controlled atmosphere storage, specific equipments are shown and described in relation to the applied ULO and LECA techniques as well as for high CO2 treatments. Specific relationships between the characteristics of ULO, C.A. rooms and refrigeration equipment are also described. Application of collateral technologies such as ethylene scrubbers by means of chemical adsorber and catalytic converter or volatiles pull down by means of water towers are also described L'autore descrive l'importanza della refrigerazione in Italia per i frutti e gli ortaggi. Dopo una breve rassegna delle specie italiane di frutti conservati in atmosfera controllata vengono illustrate le attrezzature per effettuare l'atmosfera controllata e le attrezzature collaterali quali gli assorbitori chimici o catalitici di etilene, i convertitori di azoto e gli assorbitori di volatili, rappresentati da torre ad acqua
