Résumé

The 2016 Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol aims to limit the impact of global warming by phasing down hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). It has led to an increased demand for a more sustainable cold chain, accelerated the transition to natural refrigerant solutions and driven technological innovation.
Traditionally, CO2 was used mainly in commercial refrigeration, facing strong opposition from fluorinated refrigerants in other applications. However, recent advances have made it both technologically and economically feasible to replace fluorinated refrigerants with CO2 throughout the entire cold chain.
The development of larger CO2 compressors is rapidly expanding the refrigerant’s use into industrial applications such as cold storage facilities, while a growth in smaller CO2 applications can also be seen thanks to manufacturers expanding their offerings.
This paper shows, with the help of the latest market data and trends, how CO2 can be used throughout the entire cold chain, completely removing any need for fluorinated gases.
