DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Gianluca Rigoletti (CERN)\nThe development and evalu
 ation of environmentally sustainable gas mixtures for Resistive Plate Cham
 bers (RPCs) have become increasingly important due to the high Global Warm
 ing Potential (GWP) associated with the currently mostly used gases\, C2H2
 F4 and SF6. The ECOGAS collaboration\, which includes ATLAS\, CMS\, ALICE\
 , LHCb/SHiP\, and the CERN EP-DT group\, is dedicated to investigating the
  long-term performance of RPC detectors under irradiation using eco-friend
 ly HFO/CO2-based gas mixtures. These long-term tests conducted at the GIF+
 + facility complement existing research on alternative gas mixtures aimed 
 at reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The experimental setup and the tools
  utilized to monitor the system are designed to study the impact of HFO/CO
 2 gas mixtures on RPC performance over extended periods and high integrate
 d charge. This abstract presents the latest results from test beams and ag
 ing test and it discusses future plans for continued evaluation of environ
 mentally friendly gas mixtures in the context of RPC detectors.\n\nhttps:/
