China Household Electrical Appliances Technology Conference recently held in Ningbo, Zhejiang. In the same period, held the room air conditioner industry HCFC-22 alternatives International exchange meeting, MEP FECO deputy Ren Yuli said the wind, the phase-out of HCFCs compliance achieved remarkable results, has successfully achieved the 2013 freeze target.
I Lifa said that in June 2014, international verification show that China's 2013 HCFC production compared to the baseline year (2009 to 2010 averages) has decreased by 8.38%, consumption baseline decreased by 9.14% compared exceeded 2013 freeze target.
It is understood that in the field of consumption, HCFCs phase-out compliance work has been completed the first phase of 76.36% compliance tasks, the smooth realization of the 2013 freeze target, with remarkable results. "Room air conditioner HCFCs phase-out plan, since launched in 2011, has made significant progress, there are 15 enterprises and Foreign Economic Cooperation Ministry of Environmental Protection signed HCFCs alternative transformation contract to design the transformation of production lines are 24, plans to phase out HCFC-22 in a total of more than 8,000 tons, the first phase-out plan can be completed more than 80%, of which more than 60% of the production line using the R290 alternatives. "Yu Li said the wind.
HCFCs are internationally recognized major ODS (Ozone Depleting Substances) one, it has a strong greenhouse gas effect, while HCFC-22 production which is one of the largest varieties.
Accordance with the "Montreal Protocol on Ozone Depleting Substances Control" (hereinafter referred to as "the Protocol") requirements, use of HCFCs as a refrigerant will be completely phased out by 2030. And according to the "Protocol" and the accelerated phase-out schedule for HCFCs, before the end of 2013, China should freeze the production of HCFCs to the baseline year (ie 2009 to 2010) average; by 2015, the baseline based on the reduction of 10%; 2020 and 2025 reductions from baseline by 35% and 67.5%; complete phase-out by 2030, leaving only 2.5% of the baseline level to meet the needs of the remaining 2030 and 2040 refrigeration servicing sector. As the world's home air conditioning manufacturing power, alternative technology of choice to a large extent influence the future direction of the global air-conditioning industry refrigerant.
China Household Electrical Appliances Association, said Jiang Feng, the current room air conditioner industry is at an important period from the traditional to the new refrigerant HCFC-22 conversion. Refrigerant air conditioning system as whole blood, replace it with the future direction of the industry is closely related to a room air conditioner. It can be said, for the purpose of environmental protection alternative development work also officially opened the room air conditioner industry has a "new era." Such a "new era" means the dispute, which means opportunity, means challenging.
Currently HCFC-22 refrigerant over alternative technologies in the world do not have a clear answer. "I believe that the active participation of companies to which this can be achieved in the process of self-transcendence, to master the key technology in the process, in order to firmly grasp the initiative in the future development of the industry."
