Natural refrigerant mixture alternatives retrofit eco efficiency comparative study case.

Number: pap. n. 858

Author(s) : TARLEA G., VINCERIUC M., ZABET I., et al.

Summary

This paper has focused on the natural alternatives: ammonia, CO2 and mixtures with zero and low global warming potential (GWP). The theoretical study analyzed one stage refrigeration system that currently works with R 404A. To implement the International Legislation, in the future it is necessary to retrofit HFC refrigerant with an ecological refrigerant R717 or R744. The comparative study of these facilities followed the coefficient of performance of a plant and also the TEWI factor (Total Equivalent Warming Impact – in respect with EN 378-1). Energy efficiency is directly related to global warming and greenhouse gases emissions.
