The gases studied inmclude CFCs, HCFCs, HFCs, PFCs, SF6 and NF3. Two of these fluid groups - CFCs and HCFHs are ozone depleting substances that are being phased out under the Montreal Protocol and EC regulations. All the other gases studied make a contribution to global warming. The study has two aims to evaluate progress towards the phase out of certain ozone depleting substances and to establish emission inventories for certain global warming gases.
