How do the new hazardous waste regulations affect the recovery and recyling of refrigerant?
The new regulations, introduced in 2005, require those involved in the recovery and recycling of refrigerants to register with the Environment Agency and follow certain paperwork proceedures. Different regulations apply in Scotland and Northern Ireland to those in force in England. The British Refrigeration Association (BRA) has produced a fact finder explaining the situation, which can be downloaded from this page as a .pdf file (53K).
