Résumé

In its UN environmental report, the United Nations concluded that the only way to limit the effects of global climate change is to radically reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. The European Union has taken a leading role in this, having already passed, in 2006, a directive calling for the reduction of certain fluorinated greenhouse gases, which will come into effect in July. The 'F-Gas Directive' includes regulations specifying that refrigeration and air-conditioning systems have to be serviced regularly by qualified staff and tested to ensure they are not leaking. This aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Eurammon is a joint European initiative of companies, institutions and individuals who advocate an increased use of natural refrigerants. This article describes two examples of refrigeration systems which use natural refrigerants (propane and an ammonia-carbon dioxide system) on board of seagoing vessels.
