As natural refrigerant solutions become more popular in the United States, participants in the event are hearing how there is increasing competition between different natural refrigerant-based technologies – whether R744, hydrocarbons or ammonia – for commercial and industrial refrigeration.
Indeed, the boundaries between solutions typically applied in either commercial or industrial refrigeration are dissipating – with low-charge ammonia or NH<sub>3</sub>/CO<sub>2</sub> cascade solutions entering the commercial refrigeration sector, and CO<sub>2</sub> transcritical being applied in industrial refrigeration applications.
