Ban on HFOs in EU, what is the probability?

I've been reading that EU has a bill in their parliament for banning HFOs because they leaving behind Purified Telephthalic Acid (PTA). Can someone from the EU help us understand how likely/unlikely this is going to be? And if the ban is likely, then which refrigerants are going to be used in home applications, commercial vehicles and industrial applications?

Edit: Maybe the ban is not because HFO1234yf leaves behind PTA but because the HFOs leave behind PFAS (forever chemicals). The question still stands.

Professional Assistance

Good Afternoon my fellow tradesman.

I have been reading Refrigeration for HVAC technicians. I am a journeyman Air Plumber. I take care of my father in laws dunkin donuts franchises.

Can you please recommend to me a good brand freezer for a walk in box. Box needs to be at -22, currently has three pipes for hot gas discharge. I have been battling ice accumulation, replacing evap fans, and five years ago had to replace the compressor. I am in the northeast so I would need low ambient.

I would also like to know you guys's charging procedure. I charged until sight-glass was full, and continued to charge until and then another 1 lb.

Thank you in advance.
