  1. Refrigeration And Air Conditioning Ozone Depletion NAME: JAFFAR HUSSAIN HAROON

  2. Learning Out Comes: 1- student should be know what is Ozone Depletion.

  3. Ozone Depletion

  4. Where is Ozone layer?

  5. What has gone wrong with ozone layer?

  9. AFFECT FISH AND OTHER OCEAN LIFE SKIN CANCER SUPPRESS BODY IMMUNE SYSTEM EYE DAMAGE What happens if Ozone layer is damaged? Ozone layer filters UV-B portion of sun rays, If UV-B reaches earth, it causes:

  10. What are the consequences of ozone depletion? • Most serious effect of ozone depletion is that the ultraviolet radiation coming from the suncan reach the surface of earth. • It can cause cancer of skin. • More cataractor even blindness. • Suppression of human immune system. • Degradation of paint and plastics (Loss 2.5 billion US$/year in USA alone). • Reduction of chlorophyll in plants, lower yield of crops (Loss 2 billion US$/year in USA alone). • Other ecological disturbances.

  11. Ozone depleting potential (ODP) • The relative ability of a substance to deplete the ozone layer is called its Ozone depletion potential(ODP). • Chlorine containing refrigerantsCFC-11 and CFC-12 have highest (worst) Ozone depletion potential value (ODP=1). • Table on next slide shows the ozone depleting potential (ODP) of common refrigerants.

  12. Ozone depleting potential (ODP) of common refrigerants.

  13. Ozone depleting potential (ODP) • From the table on previous slide, it can be observed that less the value of the ODP better the refrigerant is for the ozone layer and the environment. • HCFCrefrigerants have a relatively low Ozone depletion potential value. • HFC do not cause any ozone depletion, their ozone depletion potential value (ODP=0).

  14. Evaluation question: 1- What is what is Ozone Depletion?
