Economics of refrigerant Recovery and Reclamation 1
Refrigerant Recovery- Reasons? * DU - Dobson unit CFCs & HCFCs because they destroy the ozone layer and threaten life on earth and also cause global warming HFCs because they cause global warming 2
Recovery, Recycling, Reclamation Recover: Remove Refrigerant & store in another container without any testing or processing Recycle: Extract appliance refrigerant & clean it for reuse without meeting the purity of the original refrigerant. Process: separation of oil, moisture, acidity and particulate matter reduction & removal of non-condensable. Reclaim: Reprocess of used refrigerant to a purity level equivalent to a new product (gas) specifications eg. through distillation etc. 3
Methods of Recovery Passive No external recovery machine used Charge migration method Use of system compressor Active With a recovery machine 4
