Global Refrigerant Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029
A refrigerant is a substance or mixture, usually a fluid, used in a heat pump and refrigeration cycle. In most cycles it undergoes phase transitions from a liquid to a gas and back again. Many working fluids have been used for such purposes. Fluorocarbons, especially chlorofluorocarbons, became commonplace in the 20th century, but they are being phased out because of their ozone depletion effects. Other common refrigerants used in various applications are ammonia, sulfur dioxide, and non-halogenated hydrocarbons such as propane.
Market Overview:The latest research study on the global Refrigerant market finds that the global Refrigerant market reached a value of USD 11573.27 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 14794.61 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.18% during the forecast period.
Market Risk
Due to the continuous discharge of CFCs and other chemical wastes from all over the world, they enter the atmosphere, form chlorine, bromide ions, float around, and combine with oxygen ions. The oxygen ions in the atmosphere gradually decrease, causing the ozone layer to be destroyed. It will increase the amount of ultraviolet radiation reaching the earth by 5% to 10%, causing direct damage to humans, animals and plants. At the same time, CFCs, HCFCs and HFCs refrigerants are considered greenhouse gases.
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has introduced regulations to phase out certain HFCs refrigerants in many applications. Some regulations based on the SNAP policy have been formally implemented, and more regulations will be fully implemented in the next few years. Therefore, the US HVAC industry is continuing to study safety equipment using new refrigerants
