In addition, it adopts a water - based cooling technology instead of using chemical refrigerants such as chlorofluorocarbon and
hydrochlorofluorocarbon for cooling, thus making it safer and more environmentally - friendly.
EPA proposed a rule that will extend the servicing and disposal of air conditioning and refrigeration equipment requirements
for other ozone - depleting substances (like chlorofluorocarbons and
hydrochlorofluorocarbon) to HFCs.
While HFCs are not Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) and therefore an acceptable substitute
for chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and
hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) under the Montreal Protocol, they have high global warming potentials (GWPs) and contribute to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
Their use is growing because they are being widely adopted as replacements
for O3 - depleting substances (ODS), including chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and
hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), which are being phased out under the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer.
This served as a starting point
for discussions I had with a number of folks at the UN climate meeting in Poland last month who are pushing the idea of using the Montreal Protocol to control
hydrochlorofluorocarbons.
In addition, it adopts a water - based cooling technology instead of using chemical refrigerants such as chlorofluorocarbon and
hydrochlorofluorocarbon for cooling, thus making it safer and more environmentally - friendly.
Today, DuPont manufactures
hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) as alternatives to CFCs
for the air conditioning and refrigeration industries.
