REFRIGERANTS
but if we are recovering older, banned high GWP gases like R12 or R22 we will take them away and destroy them in an environmentally- friendly way. HFC refrigerants contaminated with other gases can also be separated and used in other blends.
Gases containing oil, moisture and other nasties will also be taken away by the Rapid team. Refrigerants sent to the A-Gas processing centres undergo chemical analysis, are cleaned of contaminants and pass through our reclamation and separation plant to create The refrigerant becomes fully reclaimed product and is returned to the market in line with the AHRI 700 standard.
Back on site when the job is complete, we
show that the refrigerant has been recovered correctly and to the letter of the law. On-site bulk transfers of refrigerants are also
an area we specialise in. Often these gases are stored on behalf of equipment manufacturers and when large quantities of refrigerants need to be shifted on site the time savings made by employing the services of Rapid Recovery are substantial.
Typically, with
a recovery job we are dealing directly with the contractor. Decommissioning equipment is an area of the market where we can be called upon. Here, also, our Rapid Recovery teams can make a big We recently tackled a job at an old factory where there were more than 100 old air conditioning
units and a number of large chillers scattered around the site. All the refrigerant had to be removed. There was a lot of R134 and R410A to be recovered. You can be sure that the role of refrigerant
recovery and re-use will grow in future. As long as the gases are re-used and not emitted into the atmosphere they are not harming the planet. Recovery also removes any temptation for rogue contractors to destroy the
gases illegally. Refrigerant recovery and re-use is not only good for the environment but it is also good for business. It highlights how businesses with low carbon policies at heart can not only save time and money but also show to their customers in a practical way that they really do care for the planet.
