LCA and Smoke Test of Dielectric Fluids Based on Natural Esters

摘要

Natural esters for electrical applications are universally recognized as environmentally friendly and less impact on non-renewable resources consumption. In the framework of an Institutional Group promoted by the University of Roma “La Sapienza”, the National Firefighters Authority, the National Institute for Insurance against Accidents at Work (INAIL) and the Department for Geological Survey of Italy (ISPRA) there were performed several experimental comparative fire/smoke simulations of both mineral and natural ester liquids.
