Cooling Club welcomes virtual event

GERMANY: GEA is discussing the subject of natural refrigerants in its first virtual Cooling Club webinar of 2020.

Formed at the end of last year, GEA’s Cooling Club was designed as a forum for specialist planners for technical building equipment, contractors, investors, and operators from the refrigeration and air conditioning industry.

The free webinar, entitled Back to the future – refrigeration technology with natural refrigerants in times of climate change, will feature presentations from Professor Michael Kauffeld of Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences and David Blankley, product manager advanced refrigeration, GEA Refrigeration Technologies. They will look at the regulations surrounding the phasing out of F-gas plants and their economic replacement with natural refrigerants, such as ammonia and CO2. 

The webinar will be at 15.00pm CET on Thursday, May 28, 2020.
