1. Economics of refrigerant Recovery and
Reclamation 1

2. 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

3. 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

4. Methods of Recovery Passive No external recovery machine used
Charge migration method
Use of system compressor
Active

For Service Technician cost per kg of reclamation will Rs. 150/- per kg. where as new refrigerant cost Rs /- per kg. So net saving of almost Rs /- per Kg.
