"It is not often you get a chance to have a 0.5-degree centigrade reduction by taking one single step together as countries - each doing different things perhaps at different times, but getting the job done, said US Secretary of State John Kerry.
Adopted in 1987, the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer is the most successful UN environmental agreement in history. Ratified by 197 parties, it has led to a 98 per cent decrease in the production and use of ozonedamaging chemicals, helping the ozone layer to start recovering, saving an estimated two million people each year by 2030 from skin cancer and contributing to mitigating climate change. /UNEP.ORG

R449A as a replacement to R404A results Not a drop-in replacement Suitable to replace R404A (comparable COP, slightly lower capacity) Suitability should be assessed prior to replacement Significantly higher discharge gas temperature (especially important for LT systems and/or high superheat) Lower massflow

Final remarks International regulations have set clear environmental targets for refrigeration industry The development path will depend on upcoming standards and regulations Effsys Expand P08 will continue to compile and generate knowledge in the field and update Swedish industry We have reached the limits of chemistry in terms of new refrigerants Selection of refrigerants is still a trade-off, but environmental properties are given very high weight now
