An international conference on "New applications of Natural Working Fluids in Refrigeration and Air Conditioning" will take place in Hannover, Germany on 10-13 May 1994. It is organized by the International Institute of Refrigeration in cooperation with the European Commission's THERMIE programme for the promotion of energy technologies in Europe.

In the context of the increasing concern about the direct global warming impact of HFC substitutes which are replacing ozone-depleting refrigerants, the meeting will focus on the extended usage of natural working fluids such as ammonia, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons, noble gasses, air and water in refrigeration and air conditioning. The objective of a reduction of the overall global warming effect also requires new and energy-efficient design of systems using natural working fluids.

An exhibition of industrial solutions for the application of natural fluids will also take place. In addition, a short course on hydrocarbons will be held prior to the conference, and technical visits are planned.
