CFCs and BCM Ozone layer.
Phase out CFCs and halons by 1996.
Europe has been described as being awash with illegal CFCs.
CFCs have been forbidden in industrial countries since 1996.
As it stands aircraft containing CFCs in the foam insulation could not be exported.
CFCs and methyl bromide can be phased out more quickly.
Scientists F. Sherwood Rowland andMario Molina suggest for the first time that CFCs damage the ozone layer.
CFCs were invented by Thomas Midgley, Jr. in the 1930s.
Each time we have come up against a serious problem, for example PCBs,DDT or CFCs- we have been taken completely by surprise.
He total amount of CFCs emitted by humans into the atmosphere reaches 15 million tons.
There is also evidence that some other countries in eastern and central Europe are not obeying the current agreement on ending the production and use of CFCs.
The contraband CFCs that have been discovered are surely a mere fraction of what is being smuggled into the Union.
It was the intention of the Regulation to restrict only the export of refrigeration andair-conditioning equipment containing CFCs in the foam.
Hair Spray Organic contains no CFCs, preservatives, acrylamides, synthetic fragrances, silicon or mineral oil.
The original Montreal Protocol focused on the protection of the ozone layer, mainly by restricting CFCs, and that goal was quickly tightened up almost to zero.
So CFCs started to be replaced with HCFCs, for example, which were a lot less harmful to the ozone layer.
In some cases, an input/output may contribute to more than one EFimpact category for example, chlorofluorocarbons(CFCs) contribute to both Climate Change and Ozone Depletion.
Besides destroying the ozone layer CFCs also contribute to, uh, the greenhouse effect which is heating up the Earth's atmosphere.
Firstly, they must be justified in the eyes of the people.This means that the changes which will occur in our daily life with regard to HCFCs, CFCs and halons must be correctly explained.
The CFCs and halons that have the strongest ozone-depleting effect have been completely eliminated, save for a limited number of exceptions.
Draft Proposal for a Regulation concerning metered dose inhalers and medical drug pumps containing CFCs, amending Regulation(EC) No…/2000 on substances that deplete the ozone layer.
Even if the CFCs are taken out of the compressors in such equipment before export there is still about twice as much CFC contained in the rigid insulating foam in these products.
The first refers to the export of metered dose inhalers containing chlorofluorocarbons(CFCs) to developing countries and the second to the export of medical drug pumps containing CFCs.
Today, the production of CFCs is only 45% of what it was in 1988, and the production of CFCs from propellents(the most serious type of pollutant) has fallen to 10% of its 1987 figure.
The major focus of Article 11 is to stop the growing export trade in used refrigeration and air-conditioning equipment, in particular domestic refrigerators and freezers, containing CFCs to developing countries.
In addition developing countries are now starting to phase out CFCs and many have indicated that they do not wish to be recipients ofsecond hand products and equipment that contain CFCs.
This amendment would be beneficial to the European pharmaceutical industry in that it would provide the legal certainty that they could continue to exportmetered dose inhalers and medical drug pumps both of which contain CFCs.
As we know, CFCs are much more environmentally damaging than HFCs, being ozone-depleting gases which we have very successfully grappled with under the auspices of the Montreal Protocol.
The Committee advocates the establishment of a new action dealing with the research needed to identify products which could be substituted for highly environmentally-damaging products, such as PCBs,PCTs, CFCs, asbestos etc.
While CFCs were phased out already in1995(and halons in 1994), there are still too many cheap CFCs on the European market, a situation which is delaying the switch to alternatives.
