Author(s) : STOLK A. L.
Type of article: Article, IJR article
Summary
The need to be careful with CFC emissions is acknowledged, due to the possible influence on the ozone layer around the globe and the greenhouse effect. A brief overview of the scientific and political conferences on this problem is given with the resulting conclusions and resolutions. Activities of the IIR on the subject of using CFCs in refrigeration technology are described. The possibilities of decreasing CFC emission and eventual substitution of these media are also discussed. The application of alternative systems and media creates many problems. The consequences of restrictions on the use of CFCs in refrigeration must be considered very seriously to obtain optimal solutions from both the ecological and economical point of view. This is very important for the well-being of mankind.
