Which gas is used in refrigerators?
cfc
What is the relationship between deplete the ozone layer and the refrigerants?
Ozone depletion is due to CFC's. These CFC's are released from refrigerators.
Does refrigerator release CFC outside of cabinat while working?
I THINK there is a ban on CFC refrigerators in many countries already.
Give name of a few of CFC that werw used in a refrigerator.?
Some common CFCs used in refrigerators were R-12 (dichlorodifluoromethane) and R-22 (chlorodifluoromethane). However, most refrigerators now use HFCs (hydrofluorocarbons) such as R-134a as a more environmentally friendly alternative.
What do people use in their refrigerators to damaged the ozone layer?
People use CFC's. They react with ozone and deplete it.
What are the sources of cfc's in the atmosphere?
the source of cfc is mainly from refrigerators n ac's...increase in the emission of cfc may lead to a hole in the ozone layer,the result of which is harmful rays such as ultra violet rays reaching out to people which causes skin cancer
What are the uses of chloroflourocarbon?
CFC's have uses in household as well. It is used in deodorant, refrigerators, air conditioners, aerosol sprays etc.
What is being done to reduce the amount of gas released from old refrigerators?
To dispose of the dangerous components in old refrigerators (HFC'S AND CFC'S) which rotted away the Ozone layer, the dangerous parts are either prior to shredding or recycling.
What first caused the ozone layer depletion?
In the past the chemical CFC (chlorofluorocarbons) was used in refrigerators however a few decades ago it was phased out
What are the appliances use by us has harmed the ozone layer?
Various appliances release CFC's which harm the ozone layer. These are refrigerators, air conditioners etc.
What year was freon stopped used in refrigerators?
Freon, specifically CFC-12, was phased out of use in new refrigerators in 1994 due to its harmful environmental impact on the ozone layer. It was replaced by more environmentally friendly refrigerants, such as HFC-134a.
What is used in refrigerators instead of CFC's?
Refrigerators now primarily use hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) or hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) as refrigerants instead of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). These alternatives have lower ozone depletion potential and are less harmful to the environment. Some newer refrigerators also use natural refrigerants like carbon dioxide or propane.
