Question

co2 refrigerator also called as​

Answer 1

Answer:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is not new to refrigeration systems. Alexander Twining proposed using CO2 as a refrigerant in a British patent granted him in 1850. Thaddeus S.C. Lowe, perhaps best known for his experimentation with CO2 military balloons, designed an ice machine using CO2 in 1867. Lowe also developed a machine for marine transportation of frozen meat.

The use of CO2 became more and more prevalent, peaking in the period from 1920 to 1940, and waning thereafter due to technical problems with the high pressures and leaks. Then DuPont began successfully marketing CFC refrigerants.

In the 1990s there was renewed focus on the advantages of CO2. Concerns with ODP (ozone depletion potential) and GWP (global warming potential) began to result in restrictions on the use of CFCs and HFCs and in restrictive charge limits for large ammonia systems.
