Eurammon symposium continues online

GERMANY: “Natural” refrigerant group Eurammon is to continue with its annual symposium in an online format next month with a week-long journey into a sustainable and energy-efficient future.

Following the digital format of recent years, the symposium will comprise a series of online lectures and a virtual panel discussion from 4 to 8 July.

“The Eurammon 2022 online symposium builds on the success of last year and looks at the use of natural fluids for cooling and heating applications across a wider range of industries,” explained Rob Lamb of Star Refrigeration, chairman of the steering committee.

The subjects on day one will help set the scene for the rest of the week. They will include the European Green Deal, the UK Institute of Refrigeration’s Beyond Refrigeration initiative and developments in the use of ammonia as a fuel. 

Day two will focus on regulatory news, dealing with the proposed changes to the EU F-gas regulation and providing updates on the IEC 60335-2-40 and EN378 standards. 

Days three to five will look at the new technologies and case studies that are helping industry move to a sustainable future.

Registration for the symposium is now open via e-mail to cornelia.roth@eurammon.com.
