Summary
R22 accounts for approximately 50% of the total refrigerant charge in Sweden. The recently initiated activities towards a replacement of R22 imposes a new set of problems to the field. The paper summarises the efforts and the lessons learned from both laboratory and field tests in co-operation with several industrial partners. The retrofit options covered in the paper include R407C, R404A, Isceon 59, R134a, etc. The choice of the retrofit refrigerant is dependant on many factors such as equipment design, age, possible plant oversize, etc.
