What Is SF6? and How Is It used?Is SF6 A Danger to Human Health?How Environmentally Damaging Is It?Has The Environmental Impact Even Been Underestimated?Is The Mitigation of SF6 Emissions Difficult? Do Better Solutions Exist?ConclusionSF6 is a long-lived, highly potent greenhouse gas. It is manmade and combines excellent electrical properties with chemical stability and low toxicity. Moreover, It's non-flammable and low in cost. These characteristics have led to its widespread and enthusiastic adoption by the electrical industry, which uses approximately 80% of all SF6produced (Powell, 2002: 6).

Get PriceSF6 is a member of the GHG group of compounds known as fluorinated gases. While fluorinated gases made up only 3% of the GHG emissions in 2017, they are a concern because of their high GWP. GWP is a calculation of how long the GHG remains in the atmosphere relative to carbon dioxide (CO 2) and how strongly it absorbs infrared radiation (energy).
