Seminar 23 -- The Future of Refrigerants: Policy and Technical Considerations PDF

This product is a PDF that contains links to files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker (recorded presentation), PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3) as noted.

With the transition from chlorinated compounds to HFCs well underway, the refrigerant market should have settled for the HVAC&R industry. But instead the market seems to be moving towards another transition from HFCs to HFOs or natural refrigerants. What are the international actions giving momentum to these next-generation refrigerants? What are the multiplicity of considerations that are important to refrigerant selection? This seminar addresses the European, US, and international policies which are impacting HFCs, HFOs, and natural refrigerants. It also discusses both technical and environmental factors important to refrigerant selection.
