Subsequent to a request from the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Industry Association (ARIA) for the certification of technicians in order to have better regulation of the Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Sector, the National Ozone Unit (NOU) approached the National Training Agency (NTA) on possible collaboration in establishing such a system based on the National Guidelines Document developed by the NOU. The NTA indicated that it would include this Professional Certification in its work programme, and a team was established between NTA, the NOU and key stakeholders in the sector, including the School of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning (SORAC), Metal Industries Company Limited (MIC), National Energy Skills Center (NESC), and the Youth Training and Employment Partnership Programme (YTEPP), to develop this Professional Certification. Consultations were held in Trinidad and Tobago and the proposal revised accordingly. The System was been finalized based on input from all stakeholders and is now being administered by MIC. The Certification System is also a component of this country's Hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) Phase out Management Plan, implementation of which is conducted by the National Ozone Unit and facilitated by the United Nations Development Programme …

The National Guidelines for Good Refrigeration Practices has been developed by the National ozone Unit (NOU) Environmental Policy and Planning Division, Ministry of Planning and Development, and supports the regulatory framework for the total phase out of Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) in Trinidad and Tobago by recommending technological options and best practices to reduce the demand for ODSs. These National guidelines are designed to: 1. Define minimum standards of good practices for servicing refrigeration and air conditioning systems, 2. act as a resource document in technicians training and the development of training materials, 3. help to initiate communication between relevant stakeholders, including service companies from the informal sector, 4. Reduce ODS consumption in a cost effective manner, 5. help ensure a smooth transition from ODS to non-ODS refrigeration technology by allowing existing refrigeration systems to run until the end of their useful life, thereby avoiding premature replacement, and 6. Improve safety quality. It is intended that the Guidelines be used as a reference resource for the reduction of refrigerant hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC) and hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) emissions into the atmosphere. It applies to the industrial/commercial, residential domestic appliances, marine refrigeration and air conditioning, mobile refrigeration and mobile air conditioning sectors. National Cooling Strategy The drafting of the NCSTT was guided using a multisectoral consultative approach which spanned a period of over eighteen (18) months. Several key stakeholders involved in the cooling industry, and well as other sectors, in particular as it relates to energy efficiency and alternative refrigerants were consulted across Trinidad and Tobago. These stakeholders included, all Government Ministries, the Environmental Management Authority; the Trinidad and Tobago Bureau of Standards; the National Training Agency; training institutions in the RAC Sector such as the Metal Industries Limited, the National Energy Skills Centre, and the School of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning; research entities such as the University of the West Indies; and Non-Governmental Organizations such as the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Industry Association and the Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Association. The NCSTT was circulated to all professionally certified RAC technicians. Comments received were used to finalize the document, under the guidance of the Cabinet Appointed National Coordinating Committee to Guide the Implementation of the Montreal Protocol. The development of the NCSTT was facilitated through funding provided by the Kigali Cooling Efficiency Programme administered through the United Nations Development Programme. …

The leading technology in the global change to natural refrigerants is the CO2 transcritical booster system, with many sizing options and efficiency technologies like ETE, there is a solution for any retailer. Epta’s Full Transcritical Efficiency system FTE provides high energy efficiency in transcritical refrigeration systems with medium and low temperature applications. With only standard components, it allows an increase of the evaporation temperature and an elimination of superheat in the medium temperature loads. Epta high pressure parallel compression ETE provides high reliability for transcritical systems in hot ambient conditions with no limit in external temperatures. It includes a subcooling unit in the refrigeration circuit and no additional systems like water spray, external subcooling or adiabatic gas coolers are needed. …

The system based on FTE and ETE technology uses CO2 as a refrigerant fluid and provides a substantial energy saving (at least 10%) compared to traditional CO2 technology at all temperatures (also >>40°C). The carbon footprint of the system is reduced over the entire value chain based on a Life-Cycle climateå performance (LCCP) approach. …

According to a survey by a health insurance company in Germany, one in three people has trouble sleeping in summer temperatures. This poses a threat to health, concentration and performance.That's why the new, actively cooling E.COOLINE blanket now helps you to get a restful night's sleep - even when there are heat records. The soft material fits softly against the body, allowing you a healthy night's rest wherever you are. In addition, the cooling textiles are hygienic, antibacterial and washable. No external energy source or refrigerator is needed for cooling. This means that the products cool CO2-free and thus not only protect peoples health, but also protect the climate and your wallet. Cooling curtains and room dividers will also be available soon. This makes it possible to cool rooms in an environmentally friendly way with the COOLINE SX3 green cooling technology. …

Many times we find that products are designed to meet quick timelines, rushing to achieve the best performance possible in as short an engineering cycle as can be obtained. This often leads to a "trial and error" approach. Mathematically rigorous optimization can find a LOT of room for improvement - and doesn't have to be time consuming or delay product development cycles. Leveraging the right approach and software can make a big difference in achieving greater product performance. …
