ABOUT THE EVENT

The ATMOsphere Networking side event on “PFAS and persistent chemicals: the state of play in Europe with focus on refrigerants in HVAC&R systems” will be held during the 45th Open Ended Working Group (OEWG) of the United Nation’s Montreal Protocol in Bangkok, Thailand.

Beside ATMOsphere’s experts, representatives of the Norwegian Environment Agency and the German environmental consultancy Öko-Recherche will explain to the Parties’ delegates the grounds for this policy initiative tackling “forever chemicals”, with specific reference to refrigerants used in HVAC&R systems.
