Latest Refrigerant-related Activities in Japan 'Risk Assessment of Mildly Flammable Refrigerants for Proper Utilization'

摘要

In the air conditioning and refrigeration (AC&R) industry, a shift from the existing types of refrigerants to next-generation types of refrigerants with low global warming potentials (GWPs) must be implemented as soon as possible. However, since many of the next-generation types of refrigerants are mildly flammable, they must be subjected to risk assessment based on scientific findings.
