Ammonia has been used in industrial applications since the 1930s and is generally acknowledged as the most efficient refrigerant. It has a low boiling point and is favoured because it is a highly energy efficient refrigerant which also has minimal environmental impact. Ammonia is environmentally friendly, having zero ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) and zero GWP (Global Warming Potential).
It can be used in a wide range of refrigeration applications including:
- Thermal storage systems
- HVAC chillers
- Process cooling and air conditioning
- Food processing
- Supermarkets.
