R22 is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) refrigerant that is being phased out due to its negative environmental impact. R22a is a hydrocarbon refrigerant blend that is used as an alternative to R22 in some systems, but it is flammable and requires special handling precautions.

No, you should not mix R22 and R22a refrigerants together. Mixing different refrigerants can lead to system inefficiency, reduced cooling capacity, and potential damage to the equipment. It is important to use the correct refrigerant specified by the manufacturer for your system.
No the whole system need to be evacuated of the r22 before you put r22a in the system. It's against the law to mix 2 different freons together and also dangerous.
R410A refrigerant was introduced to replace R22, as R22 is ozone-depleting and harmful to the environment. R410A is a more environmentally friendly alternative with zero ozone depletion potential.
One refrigerant that is chlorine free is cfc-22. This refrigerant has gained popularity in the past few years in many homes.
No, an R134a compressor cannot directly replace an R22 compressor due to differences in refrigerant properties and system requirements. R134a and R22 operate at different pressures and have different lubrication needs, so using an R134a compressor in an R22 system could lead to inefficiency or damage. If converting from R22 to R134a, the entire system, including the compressor, evaporator, and condenser, typically needs to be modified or replaced to accommodate the different refrigerant.
