Summary

R22 will be phased out, which means that an alternative will be required. One alternative is ammonia, which requires the application of an indirect system on board refrigerated cargo vessels. Another alternative is a drop-in HFC replacements such as R407C. The article takes a look at the environmental impact of R407C, the requirements for conversion and the results of a laboratory test.
