What to do with the recovered refrigerant?
Recovered refrigerant when not contaminated or only marginal can be used in the system again after repair. (With a compressor burn out, refrigerants are heavily contaminated.) Of course, best is to recycle all refrigerant before reuse. But this is an economic question as multi pass recycling machines are not cheap and thus only economical if sufficient refrigerant can be recycled over time. For this a group of technicians from the same locality could join together and purchase one machine and start recycling. Refrigerant recycling and reuse can only be done if refrigerants are not mixed! Hence keep separate cylinders for each and every recovered refrigerant. In the future the Govt. might start some recycling centres at some selected cities or towns and technicians will be able to make use of the same.
