- characteristics of HFO refrigerants
- design issues for systems, components and controls
- safety issues (flammability risk analysis, design considerations, operating experience)
- legislation, codes of practise and standards

The conference will also accept papers that include comparisons with other low and moderate GWP fluids such as R32, ammonia, CO2 and hydrocarbons.
