Sentences with phrase «other fluorinated»

The rule, Listing of Substitutes for Refrigeration and Air Conditioning and Revision of the Venting Prohibition for Certain Refrigerant Substitutes, lists four climate - friendly hydrocarbon refrigerants as «acceptable» substitutes for ozone depleting substances and other fluorinated gases which are hundreds and thousands of times more damaging to the climate than CO2.

-- For a covered entity described in section 700 (13)(C), 1 emission allowance for each ton of carbon dioxide equivalent of fossil fuel - based carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, or any other fluorinated gas that is a greenhouse gas (except for nitrogen trifluoride), or any combination thereof, produced or imported by such covered entity during the previous calendar year for sale or distribution in interstate commerce.

Not exact matches

Another major advance in lithium - ion batteries is reported in the Nature Communications paper, «Mitigating oxygen loss to improve the cycling performance of high capacity cation - disordered cathode materials,» which shows that disordered materials can be fluorinated, unlike other battery materials.

They examined the vegetation - caribou - wolf food chain in the area, where the presence of other organic contaminants such as legacy pesticides and fluorinated surfactants suggested that CUPs might be found in the vegetation and animals.

In a separate study, researchers report that all samples drawn from 45 crocodiles at five sites in and around South Africa's Kruger National Park contained detectable levels of four PFAAs, often in different combinations with other of the 15 fluorinated organic compounds tracked.

Other heavily fluorinated gases are very long - lived, almost permanent, in the atmosphere and are still being emitted.

Requires the EPA Administrator to change the definition of «covered entity» and compliance obligations with respect to non-HFC fluorinated gases and establish other requirements if the EPA Administrator determines that such emissions can best be regulated by designating downstream emission sources as covered entities.

If the Administrator determines, based on consideration of environmental effectiveness, cost effectiveness, administrative feasibility, extent of coverage of emissions, competitiveness and other relevant considerations consistent with the purposes of this title, that emissions of non-HFC fluorinated gases can best be regulated by designating downstream emission sources as covered entities with compliance obligations under section 722, the Administrator shall, after notice and comment rulemaking, change the definition of covered entity and the compliance obligations under section 722 with respect to non-HFC fluorinated gases accordingly, consistent with the purposes of this title, and establish such other requirements as are necessary to ensure compliance for such entities with the requirements of this title.

Demand for semiconductors and other electronics products manufactured using fluorinated GHGs (e.g., flat panel displays, micro-electro-mechanical systems and photovoltaic cells) is expected to continue to rise given high demand for high - tech products and renewable energy.

Like other long - lived greenhouse gases, most fluorinated gases are well - mixed in the atmosphere, spreading around the world after they are emitted.

Unlike many other greenhouse gases, fluorinated gases have no natural sources and only come from human - related activities.

Many fluorinated gases have very high global warming potentials (GWPs) relative to other greenhouse gases, so small atmospheric concentrations can have proportionately large effects on global temperatures.
