Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Technology Better: The Next Generation of Cooling
- Low-GWP Synthetics: R-32 (with a GWP of 675 vs. R-410A’s 2,088) is becoming standard for split ACs, offering higher efficiency and lower refrigerant charge.
- Natural Refrigerants: CO2 (R-744), Ammonia (R-717), and Propane (R-290) have near-zero GWP. CO2 systems, once impractical, now dominate commercial refrigeration in supermarkets due to advancements in transcritical booster systems.
- A2L Mildly Flammable Refrigerants: New safety standards now allow these highly efficient, low-GWP refrigerants, striking a balance between safety and climate impact.
