Summary
CO2 technology is also used now in skating rinks. In a growing number of countries it is not allowed anymore to use big amounts of ammonia in areas occupied by many people. So new skating halls with direct ammonia systems are not built anymore although those systems are the best solutions concerning ice quality and energy consumption! An indirect of NH3 brine-glycol system uses 25% more energy and by using (H)CFC's instead NH3, it might even be more! During the last years, CO2 has proven to be an excellent secondary refrigerant also in skating rinks!
