What Are the Alternatives to Harmful Refrigerants?
The development of environmentally friendly and safer alternatives to traditional refrigerants is an ongoing area of research. Natural refrigerants, such as ammonia, carbon dioxide, and hydrocarbons (e.g., propane and isobutane), are gaining popularity due to their lower environmental impact and reduced health risks. These alternatives are often more energy-efficient and have a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) compared to traditional refrigerants.
