Chlorofluorocarbons have been used widely in the production of refrigerants like Freon. 氯氟烃已广泛用于氟利昂等制冷剂的生产。
A robust plan for the safe handling and recovery of the refrigerant when the units are disposed of will be put into place.
The thermodynamic properties of the refrigerant are identical.
However, no specific assessment has been made of the risks to public safety from the use of volatile and flammable hydrocarbons as refrigerants.
Should new rules become necessary to require the use of the more beneficial refrigerants as they become commercially available, then we would introduce them.
Also, it is not a simple matter of substituting one refrigerant for another.
We are encouraged that some products using hydrocarbon refrigerants are already on the market, both in domestic and in commercial appliances.
The refrigerant evaporates at the evaporator and collects heat from the water.
The standard allows for hydrocarbons, which are flammable, being used as a refrigerant in certain circumstances instead of the usual hydrofluorocarbons, which are inert.
