Spotlight on HFOs at IOR conference in September
31 May 2018
This year the IOR is bringing to the UK the first ever IIR International Conference analysing real-life applications of HFO refrigerants HFOs are being marketed as the environmental solution to growing restrictions on the use of high GWP HFCs, but what will their future?
This break-through conference will provide the first critical analysis by the international refrigeration community of how HFOs are being applied in practice, the lessons that have been learned so far and the environmental and safety challenges still to be addressed.
Hear from 70 of the top experts in system design, component manufacture, end users as well as independent researchers with direct experience of the use of HFOs.
The variety of applications covered by our speakers will include chillers, residential and commercial air conditioning, transport, component operation, lubricants, heat pumps and foams. Issues such as risk assessment, leakage and flammability will also be included.
Find out:
- Where and how HFOs are being used now
- What the experience of those applying these new refrigerants has been so far
- What challenges the move to HFOs is presenting
You will be able to take away over 70 independently peer reviewed papers, hear from and question the authors at presentations, attend related short courses and visit site tours. Most importantly meet and network with the leading experts in this field and make useful contacts.
2-5th September 2018 in Birmingham.

Opportunity For Employers To Influence Future Skills
10 Dec 2024
BESA, on behalf of the Engineering Building Services Skills Authority (EBBSA,) are setting up Sector Groups (SG’s) in occupations within Building Services. The SG’s purpose is to bring employers within specific occupation groups together to determine the roles that exist within that occupational area, thereafter determine a competency framework for these roles. The IOR is pleased to be invited to support this work and to help co-ordinate outputs with its own plans to map skills needs and roles in the RACHP sector.
