May 1997
HFC-23 related

Having considered the recommendation of the Sub-Committee on Project Review on recycling projects in CFC-producing countries (UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/22/15, paras. 21-22), the Executive Committee decided:

(a) To note the potential usefulness of demonstration projects for refrigeration recovery and recycling in other ODS-producing countries;

(b) To note that, while in many cases there may be financial benefits in recycling projects, there could be cases in which the operational costs of refrigerant recovery and reclamation projects could exceed their benefits;

(c) To note that measures needed to support recovery and recycling projects needed to be appropriate to local circumstances and could involve, for example, incentives affecting the operational level or regulatory measures.
