|
| Think of the ozone hole of the 1980s as the climate of the 21st century and chlorofluorocarbon as coal and you might get a preview of the humiliation awaiting the current champions of coal-fired energy. |
|
| However, he points out that halogen oxidants also form during the sunlight-triggered breakdown of industrial chemicals such as chlorofluorocarbon refrigerants. |
|
| Halon and chlorofluorocarbon production have been completely phased out, and efforts to end methyl bromide production are under way. |
|
| Polystyrene foam was formerly made with the aid of chlorofluorocarbon blowing agents—a class of compounds that has been banned for environmental reasons. |
|
| The new product uses hydrofluoroalkane, instead of chlorofluorocarbon, to propel the medication out of the canister and into the lungs. |
|
| He shared the honour with American chemists Mario Molina and F. Sherwood Rowland, who discovered in 1974 that manufactured chlorofluorocarbon gases also contribute to ozone depletion. |
|
| The chlorofluorocarbon metered-dose inhalers listed in Annex I shall not be placed on markets where the Competent Authority has determined chlorofluorocarbons for metered-dose inhalers on those markets to be non-essential. |
