Carbon dioxide: new uses for an old refrigerant.

Author(s) : PEARSON A. B.

Summary

The paper traces the development of the old carbon dioxide systems, considers the technical, commercial and social reasons for their slow development and subsequent decline and examines the recent renaissance across a surprisingly broad range of applications, from transcritical car air conditioners to low-temperature industrial freezer plants. The paper then concentrates on industrial refrigeration systems and concludes with a review of possible future developments.
