At the beginning of 2024, A-Gas in Singapore began a recovery project for a major trans-shipment hub in the region. Partnering with Ping Engineering (S) Pte Ltd., A-Gas’ expert technicians are working throughout the year to recover a large amount of R134A and R32 from decommissioned air conditioning units at the customer’s offices.
The A-Gas technicians have two main goals with this project. Firstly, to prevent any of the refrigerant from being vented into the atmosphere in accordance with the Resource Sustainability Act (RSA) in Singapore. Secondly, to provide the customer with an on-site, flexible and efficient Lifecycle Refrigerant Management (LRM) solution that reduces downtime while supporting them with their environmental goals.
- Recovering large amounts of used HFC refrigerants with a high Global Warming Potential (GWP) and preventing its release into the atmosphere.
- Providing a highly organised and time-effective solution which enables the customer to continue its daily operations.
- Supporting all key stakeholders and partners in complying with the Resource Sustainability Act (RSA) in Singapore.
- Safe and efficient refrigerant recovery that helps supports the customer in achieving its sustainability goals; a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030, and to achieve net-zero by 2050.
- Effective collaboration between A-Gas and its partners.
- Use of A-Gas’ skilled technicians and equipment to provide a consistently high-quality service.
Using custom-designed equipment, A-Gas’ skilled technicians have been completing the project while avoiding any major disruption to the customer’s day-to-day activities. This equipment is suitable for projects of any size, at any time and anywhere, enabling a quick, safe and effective recovery.
The gas is being transported back to A-Gas to be reclaimed to AHRI 700 standards for future reuse in place of virgin products. This project has seen A-Gas adhere to its commitment to protect and enhance the environment, while providing an efficient, cost-effective solution which embraces circular economy principles.
