About this document
R290 as a Replacement for R22 by Si Acok is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document evaluates propane (R290) as a potential replacement for R22 in refrigeration systems. It analyzes the thermodynamic properties and environmental impacts of both refrigerants. R290 has similar or better thermodynamic properties compared to R22, including a higher latent heat of evaporation and critical temperature. Environmentally, R290 has an atmospheric lifetime less than 1% of R22, zero ozone depletion potential, and a global warming potential of 20 compared to 1700 for R22. While flammable,
