Summary
Because CO2 is not ozone depleting and does not contribute to global warming, recovery equipment is not needed and this reduces the logistics burden for maintenance of military ECUs (environmental control unit). In order to evaluate the performance of CO2 ECUs it is necessary to first establish an R22 baseline. A US Army MIL-STD (military standard) 36,000 BTUh ECU was tested as the baseline ECU and the results are contained herein.
