Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the search for alternatives to the identified ozone-depleting substances used in numerous fire suppression technologies. Historically used for their efficacy and safety, these substances have been linked to ongoing damage to Earthâs protective stratospheric ozone layer. Scientific investigation is urgent: the author reports that current production and use of these ozone-harming agents must be phased out by the year 2000. The book outlines promising principles for designing new suppressants that maintain the favorable qualities of todayâs commercial halons without posing threats to the ozone layer. These range from chemical modifications of existing compounds to entirely new candidate families. Together, the collected findings and recommendations in this book will both accelerate the search for suitable replacements and inform global efforts to protect the ozone layer. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
