Replacement of ozone depleting substances used as refrigerants
The development of the refrigeration industry, which is an indispensable link in the modern food production chain (as well as in many other areas of modern human activity), was due to the invention and development in the 30s of safe liquid refrigerants, which were halogenated carbons. At that time, these substances were received with great enthusiasm as a miracle of science, because they are chemically inert, non-flammable (some of them are even used as fire extinguishing agents), low toxicity and effective as refrigerants.
