HPMP Achievement and Goal

Stage I (2011-2018): Total target of phasing out 164 ODP tonnes of HCFC (39 ODP tonnes of HCFC-22 and 126 ODP tonnes of HCFC-141b). Of this, (88 ODP tonnes) 53% is being phased out by UNIDO. Stage II (2016-2023): Total target of reaching complete phase out in the foam sector, i.e. reduction of 88 ODP tonnes of HCFCs. Of this, 56% (49 ODP tonnes) will be phased out by UNIDO. This will help the country reduce its total consumption of HCFC (162 tonnes) by 2022.

Foam sector: Conversion from HCFC 141b to Cyclopentane

• Conversion to alternative blowing

agent (Cyclopentane)

• Retrofitting of existing foam

equipment requires explosion proof specifications, sensors, ventilations, etc.

• Lower operating cost due to low

cost of cyclopentane

• Investment for safety due to the

flammability

• Tehran, Tabriz, Masshad, etc.

4

TVTOs (Technical Vocational Training Organizations)

• 6 TVTO centers to have

equipment needed for alternative refrigerants including hydrocarbons

• Memorandum of Understanding

between National Ozone Office and TVTOs to be signed

• Civil work required in the TVTO

facilities

• UNIDO provide equipment
• Training to be provided by UN
