The Recovery of Ammonia Refrigerant
We are a company mainly requested to recover ammonia refrigerant from vapour compression systems used in factories. These systems can contain tonnes of anhydrous ammonia. We have high capacity refrigerant recovery units and refrigerant liquid pumps to get the ammonia out- fast! Because ammonia refrigerant is highly corrosive and toxic, only the best, well equipped and well trained engineers will do. Maximus Chillers has a training facility at head office where our engineers are put through a rigorous training schedule. On site, a site specific Risk Assessment Method Statement is prepared which the engineer and customer adhere to. All of this makes the job go right as planned- causing you the minimum of disruption.
Ammonia Refrigerant Disposal
We dispose of anhydrous ammonia refrigerant from industrial refrigeration systems during decommissioning. We dispose of any amount of anhydrous ammonia at our hazardous waste recycling facility. Our services are available nationwide and around the world. The picture is of a Grasso skid. During the disposal of ammonia refrigerant, the compressor can be used to pump down the plant to the low pressure liquid receiver.

Ammonia Refrigerant Transfer
We can arrange the transfer of any amount of anhydrous ammonia during service repairs. We have all the necessary ancillaries to handle the refrigerant from the plant to the recovery vessels. The picture shows a low pressure liquid receiver containing 2 tonnes of anhydrous ammonia. The system can be pumped down and valved off. After the liquid is removed, the vapour can be pumped out until the refrigeration system reaches atmospheric pressure and temperature.
Ammonia Refrigerant Disposal in Absorption Chillers
We are also requested to dispose of ammonia refrigerant from gas and steam fired absorbers. As the ammonia is partly dissolved in water, the solution has to be disposed of correctly as it is harmful to marine life.
Service
For this kind of service, we are on account with a national hazardous waste disposal facility. We can arrange a service visit, remove the ammonia refrigerant solution from the system and have it collected.
Repair
Quite often a repair can be carried out by handling the solution into a vessel, repairing an internal component failure then recharging the system with the correct mix if ammonia refrigerant and water. This saves the cost of buying new plant.

Case Study of Ammonia Refrigerant Transfer
We transferred ammonia refrigerant for a customer of ours in the Midlands as they were relocating their factory. They asked us to come in and decommission an ammonia plant with 600kg of refrigerant. We set up our refrigerant recovery equipment and recovered the ammonia into 430kg vessels. The disposal of the refrigerant was arranged at our hazardous waste recycling facility.
