Abstract
Through the ordinance on CFCs and halons, the Swedish Government has decided to phase out CFC use in Sweden. As regards of CFCs as cleaning and degreasing agents, the ban enters into force on Jan 1, 1991. The present report indicates the various alternatives to CFCs for cleaning and degreasing purpose, e.g. technologies that eliminate the need for cleaning, aqueous (water-based) cleaning, cleaning with other organic solvents than CFC-113 and HCFCs as well as cleaning with other chemicals. The report presents guidelines for best available technology for cleaning with solvents and recommendations from the TRE project concerning the alternatives to CFCs in the electronics industry. The purpose of the report is to provide guidance to companies, county administrations and municipalities. (au).
