HCFC 123 is the raw base material use to produce a halogeanated, safe/effective and environment friendly fire extinguishing chemical agent called "halotron I". It was introduce in early 1990's to replace the "banned" fire extinguishing agents like, Halon 1211 and BCF's, which were found to have a severe ozone depleting potentials. In contrast, hcfc 123 base fire extinguishing agents has a near zero ozone depletion potentials.

What is the difference between dry chemical and hcfc 123 fire extinguisher?

The difference between a dry chemical and a hcfc 123 fire extinguisher is the material used to extinguish. Dy chemical fire extinguishers typically contain a fine white powder composed mainly of monoammonium phosphate. This powder extinguishes the fire but creates a lot of smoke and is highly corrosive. Hcfc fire extinguishers use Halon instead. Halon is a liquefied, compressed gas that cuts off the combustion reaction while it is happening. Halon has very few risks and very little is needed to extinguish fires.

Which gas is used instead of CFC in Refrigerators now-a-days?

LPG - Liquid propane gas or other Hydrocarbon derivatives... Soft CFC's, they added hydrogen to the CFC's previously used that were called hard CFC's. By doing this it won't allow the CFC's to travel up to the stratosphere, where it breaks down the ozone. With the added hydrogen will stop it in the troposphere and combine to form compounds such as CO2 + HCl (or HF), therefore not harmful to the ozone. Examples CH2Cl (HCFC-22) or CHCl2-CF2 (HCFC-123)
