Unchecked emissions of R23 challenge climate and sustainable refrigeration goals
Despite regulations under the Montreal Protocol, emissions of R23, a high-GWP HFC used in ultra-low temperature refrigeration, remain unexpectedly high, raising concerns for sustainable refrigeration practices.
R23, a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) with a global warming potential (GWP) of 14,700, poses significant challenges to climate goals despite its limited use in ultra-low temperature refrigeration. Recent findings highlight substantial emissions of this gas, which is primarily generated as a byproduct of...
