ATMOsphere announces World Summit

BELGIUM: Natural refrigerants group ATMOsphere has announced its inaugural online World Summit conference to take place online for 24 hours on March 30-31.

Formerly known as Shecco, the group is well known for its ATMOsphere events around the world which have become the forum to discuss the business case for “natural” refrigerants. This new event is designed to build on the success of last year’s ATMO Virtual Trade Show. 

The World Summit 2022 will be a free-to-attend full day (24 hours) online event with on-the-hour webinars starting at 10:00 March 30 in the Central European time zone, followed by the Americas and then Asia Pacific. 

The organiser says the format will allow for more global webinars from industry leading companies working with “natural” refrigerant technologies, to discuss the future of cooling and heating worldwide. This will include webinars and presentations covering refrigerants like CO2 (R744), hydrocarbons, ammonia/NH3 (R717), water and air.

The programme include presentations from leading companies including Alfa Laval, Danfoss, Dorin, Energy Recovery, GEA, Johnson Controls, TEKO, and Temprite. Topics will range from technology to market trends and policy.
