Abstract

This research aims to provide a comprehensive assessment of the environmental impact and energy efficiency of magnetocaloric refrigeration systems compared to conventional vapor compression refrigeration. Through life cycle assessment (LCA) and thermodynamic modeling, this article will quantitatively analyze the potential reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption achievable with magnetocaloric cooling technologies. The results will contribute to the ongoing efforts to develop more sustainable refrigeration solutions. Since magnetocaloric refrigeration is still in the development phase this study aims to fill the void of knowledge for this technology and its applications.
