Hello do you think almost all jobs in the co2 space are traveling jobs? I’m a dev refrigeration tech for Walmart and have a great understanding of rack refrigeration. I have a wife with 2 kids but I’m worried about traveling too much. I like to stay in one place. You think it’s best to just work my ways up with Walmart and have the stores that I’ll take care of? I really want to get into co2 design work possibly, wouldn’t mind even working from home, just trying to find the best path for my family to provide well for them!
@@MichaelLirette-rx5rs you and your wife are the only people who can answer that. If you do not have any CO2 sites right now in your area it is will be a travel job for now. CO2 will be local to you at some point. Transcritical or secondary CO2 systems will get installed with these new regulations start in North America in 2025/2026. We work demanding jobs and part of the learning growth might be travelling. I first suggest sitting down and discussing it with the family before any decisions are made so everyone is onboard and understands why you’re doing this. Because you want to grow your skills and knowledge to support all of you. Remember when you’re travelling that the easy part, home with the kids is the hard part. Second sort out help for your spouse and kids while you’re gone. If you’re travelling to learn CO2 don’t get sucked into the late dinners and drinks. Learn as much as you can while you’re there. I would recommend CO2 startup and commissioning jobs as it can be the most stressful but the fastest way to learn but not install. When you have an opportunity to invest in yourself seize that opportunity. Good luck.
hi trevor. i was a refrigeration engineer with NH3 experience and a working knowledge in CO2. However finding some employer to practice my CO2 knowledge is limited. is there any company that you could help me with so i can get a position? thank you.
It cost energy to create CO2 refrigerant for refrigeration system, it has a GWP of 1 which is not as bad as other refrigerants and it cost technicinans time to recharge and end users money to just blow it off CO2 to atmosphere. There are many indirect emissions when relaseing refrigerant charge to the environment.
I release R744. Trying to recover it is Total nonsense. At 0.04% of the atmosphere, releasing C02 is of no concern to any sane person. Besides, I doubt recovery equipment exists.

How is leaking CO2 that is returning to the environment that it is taken from bad for the environment?
