 | | FIT FOR THE FUTURE? | | | eurammon | | 06/08/2008 | | | Frankfurt, - The European initiative for natural refrigerants eurammon will present information on key aspects of refrigeration using natural refrigerants at Chillventa, the new international trade fair for refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pumps from 15-17 October 2008 in Nuremberg.
eurammon's tradeshow presence will include a series of lectures presented in English headed "Refrigeration Applications with Natural Refrigerants".
These lectures are intended to be of interest to planners, operators and contractors of refrigeration equipment and will update them on the latest refrigeration applications using natural refrigerants. The lectures will all take place on the second day of the show, 16 October, between 9.30 and 11.30am at Congress Center CCN East (Room Kiev, Level 2). Refrigeration experts will give twenty-minute presentations about the use of carbon dioxide in air-conditioning for buildings and refrigeration in supermarkets, the advantages of using ammonia in the meat processing industry, and the current status and prospects for future applications of ammonia in refrigerant plants in the Ukraine. Those attending will hear examples of recent installations using natural refrigerants and will gain a greater insight into natural refrigeration system designs, latest developments on the technology front, and trends and perspectives in refrigeration.
"For instance, from 1 January, 2010 no new HCFCs may be used throughout Europe," explains Monika Witt, Chairwoman of eurammon, the European initiative for natural refrigerants. "This is forcing the refrigeration industry to rethink. Natural refrigerants like ammonia, carbon dioxide and hydrocarbons are an obvious solution. They are carbon-neutral, energy-efficient and available inexpensively in large amounts."
After the lectures, eurammon will host a "Brunch for Friends of Natural Refrigerants" at the eurammon booth (Hall 1, No. 314), giving interested parties an opportunity to follow up on the information presented and network with people in the international refrigeration/air-conditioning community.
About eurammon
eurammon is a joint European initiative of companies, institutions and individuals who advocate an increased use of natural refrigerants. As a knowledge pool for the use of natural refrigerants in refrigeration engineering, the initiative sees as its mandate the creation of a platform for information sharing and the promotion of public awareness and acceptance of natural refrigerants. The objective is to promote the use of natural refrigerants in the interest of a healthy environment, and thereby encourage a sustainable approach in refrigeration engineering. eurammon provides comprehensive information about all aspects of natural refrigerants to experts, politicians and the public at large. It serves as a qualified contact for anyone interested in the subject. Users and designers of refrigeration projects can turn to eurammon for specific project experience and extensive information, as well as for advice on all matters of planning, licensing and operating refrigeration plants. The initiative was set up in 1996 and is open to European companies and institutions with a vested interest in natural refrigerants, as well as to individuals e.g. scientists and researchers. | |
