What is Nitrogen Trifluoride ?
Nitrogen Trifluoride is mainly used during manufacture of Television and computer screens (LCD screens). It also widely used in making of thin-film photovoltaic cells. In fact, Nitrogen Trifluoride was opted in 2000 as a substitute for perfluorocarbons. Effects of Nitrogen Trifluoride on Environment : When it is placed as an environmentally effective substitute, environmentalists thought that only just about 2 percent of the gas used in manufacturing will be escaped into the environment. But, the effective and potent greenhouse gas has proved that environmentalists’ thoughts are absolute illusions. Which Gas is Hotter For Global Warming? When compared over a 100 years of time, Nitrogen Trifluoride is more potent with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) about 17,000 times greater than that of Carbon Dioxide. According to the statistics of Intenational environmental agencies, in 2008, the total estimated content of Nitrogen Trifluoride is more than 5,000 metric tons, increasing at more than
