Supply of CFC-12 and alternative refrigerants.

Author(s) : LAMB H. J.

Summary

Millions of pieces of mechanical equipment designed to operate using CFC-12 as a refrigerant remain in service. Automobile air conditioning, domestic refrigerators, water coolers, supermarket display cases and chillers are all competing for a limited pool of refrigerant to meet the collective service need. The purpose of the paper is to examine the demand for CFC-12 in all types of equipment for the next several years. An estimate will be made of the amount of refrigerant that is available to service the equipment over the next several years as a result of reclaim, recycle and retrofit activities in all use sectors.
