Abdul-Kazeem Kasimu Bayero: Promoting HC Refrigerants as alternatives to HCFCs in Nigeria

Kasimu Bayero discussed the rapidly increasing servicing sector for hydrocarbons in domestic refrigerators and air conditioning in Nigeria.

Bayero looks at their efforts to streamline the production of hydrocarbons for both safety and supply reasons. Bayero explained how Nigeria’s ‘pilot hydrocarbon production project’ looked to design, construct and start a pilot distillation and bottling of hydrocarbon refrigerants as well as the distribution and marketing of products along with a good practice programme. Bayero noted that a full commericalisation of their hydrocarbon production plant is expected by October 2015.
