Abstract:

The problem of the destruction of the protective ozone layer by chlorofluorocarbons is studied. Alternative strategies for the industrial use of different freons are discussed. A number of scenarious of emission of chlorofluorocarbons into the atmosphere for the period up to the year 2050, which correspond to the strategies, is presented. Numerical experiments on the prediction of the changes in the total ozone content, the vertical distribution of ozone, and the accumulation of active chlorine in the atmosphere up to the year 2050 were performed based on a one-dimensional photochemical model of the atmosphere using the indicated scenarios. It is concluded that the industrial use of the any chlorine-containing freons is potentially dangerous from the standpoint of the effect on the ozonosphere.
