Experimental Performance of R-1234yf as a Drop-in Replacement for R-134a in Domestic Refrigerators

open access: yes, 2012
Concerns about anthropogenic climate change have generated an interest in low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants and have spawned policies and regulations that encourage the transition to low GWP refrigerants. Recent research has largely focused

A Review of Sensing Technologies for New, Low Global Warming Potential (GWP), Flammable Refrigerants

open access: yes, 2023
Commercial refrigeration systems currently utilize refrigerants with global warming potential (GWP) values ranging from 1250 to 4000. The advent of low GWP alternatives (GWP 150) is expected to significantly curtail direct emissions from this segment and

A Social Entrepreneurship Perspective of De‐Carbonising the Footprint through Recycling Compensation: A Case Study of the NGO Madre Coraje

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research analyses the carbon footprint of the NGO Madre Coraje, using an integrated methodology that combines the calculator provided by REAS (Red de Economía Alternativa y Solidaria) Navarra and the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). It quantifies emissions across the three scopes of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, evaluating both direct and ...

A Reduced GWP Replacement for HFC-134a in Centrifugal Chillers: XP10 Measured Performance and Projected Climate Impact

open access: yes, 2012
The performance of XP10, a new refrigerant with a reduced GWP, in a centrifugal chiller designed for HFC-134a with a cooling capacity of 1969.44 kW (560 tons) was measured under full and part load conditions and compared to performance with HFC-134a ...

Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...

Variations in Line Profiles of Atomic Transitions in RR Lyrae Stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We have investigated the absorption shapes of atomic lines and H α in RR Lyrae stars. We used the database of high-resolution spectra gathered with the Las Campanas Observatory du Pont Telescope, analyzing a set of about 2700 short exposure spectra of 17

Lithium Metal Anode Fabrication: Methods, Challenges, and Strategies

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of four representative fabrication techniques for thin lithium metal anodes: extrusion, molten lithium infusion, electroplating, and physical vapor deposition (PVD). ABSTRACT The pursuit of ultra‐high energy‐dense lithium‐metal batteries (LMBs) has reignited the drive to fabricate ultrathin high‐quality lithium metal anodes. This

Global meta-analysis reveals different grazing management strategies change greenhouse gas emissions and global warming potential in grasslands

open access: yesGeography and Sustainability
Grazing management significantly influences greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and the global warming potential (GWP) in grasslands. Yet, a limited understanding of the impact of grazing and grazing exclusion on GHG emissions and GWP in grasslands hinders ...

Unintentional unfairness when applying new greenhouse gas emissions metrics at country level

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2019
The 2015 Paris Agreement sets out that rapid reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are needed to keep global warming to safe levels. A new approach (known as GWP *) has been suggested to compare contributions of long- and short-lived GHGs ...
