Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6007261

The object of the project was to investigate the possibility of alternate uses for surplus CFC/halon chemicals as these are replaced in their traditional service roles. These uses may be beneficial new products or substances that are nonhazardous to the environment. The CFC/halons investigated in the study were: CFC-11; CFC-12; HCFC-22; CFC-113; CFC-114; CFC-115; R-500; R-502; Halon-1211; Halon-1301; Halon-2402. The emphasis of the study was on the U.S. market; however, where data were available, global estimates were sought. The study had three major components: (1) Identification of potential transformation technologies; (2) Identification of potential U.S. markets for transformation; (3) Engineering evaluation of the transformation technologies.
