It is illegal to discharge anything to atmosphere
that may cause environmental damage. Consequently,
the recovery of refrigerant is now an essential part
of everyday life in the refrigeration and air conditioning
industry. Effective from 16th July 2005 used refrigerant
is classified as hazardous waste and must be handled
according to relevant legislation.
Harp International has the largest stand alone refrigerant
reclamation plant in the UK. It operates under a waste
management licence and has sufficient capacity to
meet the total needs of the market. Analytical quality
control ensures that all reprocessed material meets
virgin quality specifications. Harp International
is also actively involved in progressing its own novel
separation technology for a variety of halocarbon
and other mixtures.
Harp International offers a well managed system of
collection, transportation, treatment and disposal
with appropriate registration and licences. Waste
hydrocarbon refrigerant should also be recovered and
a separate system operates for this range of products.
