A fresh look at hydrocarbon refrigeration: experience and outlook.
Author(s) : PAUL J.
Summary
Hydrocarbons belong to the "gentle five" natural refrigerants upon which future refrigeration technology will be based. These five substances are: ammonia, air, water, carbon dioxide and hydrocarbons. These substances make it possible to design and operate refrigeration systems and plants of the "Double-Zero" type, i.e. they have neither ozone depletion potential (ODP) nor (significant) global warming potential (GWP). Some examples are given, including plants with secondary refrigerant like Flo-Ice.
