Probability in ammonia refrigeration risk assessment.

Author(s) : LINDBORG A.

Summary

Designers and users of ammonia in refrigeration and heat pumps consider it a safe and economical refrigerant. The number of injuries and lethal accidents are extraordinarily rare compared to other risks in society. This is not generally known and myths which depict ammonia as very dangerous continue to influence regulators and society at large. This paper demonstrates that ammonia's dangers have been greatly exaggerated.
