Question

why is compulsory rule that refrigerator manufacturing companies must produce CFC free fridges​

Answer 1

Answer:

It is because CFCs from fridges react with ozone in the atmosphere and destroy the shield leading to the depletion of the ozone layer.

Explanation:

• CFC refers to the Chlorofluorocarbon which is one of the major ozone-depleting substances (ODS) that comes out from air conditioners and refrigerators.

• This ODS often reacts with atmospheric ozone present in the stratosphere layer and depletes the same followed by creating holes in it.

• The $O_{3}$ layer protects the earth from the harmful effects of UV rays such as skin cancer, loss of eyesight, allergy etc.

• CFCs contribute to 14% of the total depletion of the ozone layer which is why the holes are getting bigger day by day.

Hence to reduce pollution and protect the environment, it is now a compulsory rule that refrigerator manufacturing companies must produce CFC free fridges.

Answer 2

CFCs from refrigerators react with ozone in the atmosphere and destroy the shield leading to the depletion of the ozone layer.

Any number of halocarbon compounds made up of carbon, hydrogen, chlorine, and fluorine is known as a chlorofluorocarbon (CFC). CFCs were historically widely utilized as propellants and refrigerants in aerosols.

• It is which is one of the major ozone-depleting substances (ODS) that comes out from air conditioners and refrigerators.
• This ODS often reacts with atmospheric ozone present in the stratosphere layer and depletes the same followed by creating holes in it.
• The  layer protects the earth from the harmful effects of UV rays such as skin cancer, loss of eyesight, allergy etc.
• CFCs contribute to 14% of the total depletion of the ozone layer which is why the holes are getting bigger day by day.

Hence to reduce pollution and protect the environment, it is now a compulsory rule that refrigerator manufacturing companies must produce CFC free fridges.
