Voorbeelden van hydrofluorocarbon

• The standard allows for hydrocarbons, which are flammable, being used as a refrigerant in certain circumstances instead of the usual hydrofluorocarbons, which are inert.

• What recent representations he has received on the use of hydrofluorocarbons at the millennium dome.

• Only very small amounts of hydrofluorocarbons would have been purchased since 1995.

• Information on the amounts of hydrofluorocarbons purchased since 1995 is not collected in the form requested.

• It is anticipated that all equipment using hydrofluorocarbons will be replaced by equipment using more acceptable refrigerants within the present deadline.

• The voluntary policy on reducing leakage of hydrofluorocarbons has had a positive impact in terms of raising awareness.

• The policy also states that hydrofluorocarbons should only be used where other safe, technically feasible, cost effective and environmentally acceptable alternatives do not exist.

• These estimates are based in part on assumptions about charges and leakage rates of hydrofluorocarbons from refrigeration systems in nine different refrigeration and air conditioning sectors.
