Digest 358 CFCs in buildings

Abstract
Summarises recent and proposed changes to the current phase-out timetables for the CFCs and halons, and options for their replacement. It is now generally accepted that emissions of CFCs and other chlorine-containing substances, including HCFCs and halons, are causing depletion of the ozone layer and that production of these substances must be phased out as soon as is possible. The Montreal Protocol on substances that deplete the ozone layer, and an EC Regulation, now require the CFCs and halons to be completely phased out.
