Scenario analysis of hydrofluorocarbons emission reduction in China's mobile air-conditioning sector
With the Kigali Amendment (KA) coming into effect in China, the control of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) emissions has become more imperative. The mobile air-conditioning (MAC) sector is one of the important HFCs consumer sectors, and therefore studying its ...

The estimated schedule and mitigation potential for hydrofluorocarbons phase-down in China
As the major producer and consumer of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), China is obligated to phase-down HFCs to mitigate global warming if China ratifies the Kigali Amendment (KA) to the Montreal Protocol.

Rethinking time-lagged emissions and abatement potential of fluorocarbons in the post-Kigali Amendment era [PDF]
The Montreal Protocol has been successful in safeguarding the ozone layer and curbing climate change. However, accurately estimating and reducing the time-lagged emissions of ozone-depleting substances or their substitutes, such as produced but not-yet ...

The prospect of using ozone-safe refrigerants with low global warming potential in scroll compressors. Research and practice of using R744 and R290. Part 2 [PDF]
Scroll compressors currently operate successfully on various natural refrigerants, among which the most popular are propane R290 and carbon dioxide R744. This is due to the performance characteristics of the refrigerants studied in the previous article.
