Domestic refrigeration refrigerants.

Author(s) : McINERNEY E., HAWORTH J., JOHNSON R., et al.

Summary

Although good progress is being achieved in the phase-out of R12 (replaced with R134a and R600a), CFC 12 continues to dominate the field service demand. Actions designed to lower the emissions during servicing are investigated, but indirect emissions (of CO2) dominate the global warming influence of domestic refrigerators and energy efficiency improvements are most important.
