Emissions des équipements frigorifiques et de conditionnement d'air utilisant des HFC : développement historique et tendances futures.

Emissions from HFC-based refrigeration and air-conditioning equipment: historical development and future trends.

Auteurs : CLODIC D.

Résumé

Analyses performed since refrigerants have been subjected to regulations and indicate that the average emissions of systems in all refrigerating applications is in the range of 15% for a "business as usual" scenario. This average emission rate hides significant differences according to the various applications (household refrigerators, mobile air conditioning equipment). At disposal of equipment, the refrigerant is not systematically recovered. Owners of refrigerating equipment in various sectors have implemented both more rigorous leak tightness inspections and refrigerant recovery for servicing operations. This change aims at extending the lifetime of equipment using refrigerants that are becoming rare and expensive. Consequences of that situation occurring during the transition towards other refrigerants, and the fact that commonly used HFCs have high GWP, are investigated.
