POST 00487E : CFC DISPOSAL

POST 00487E : CFC DISPOSAL 13 August 2002 __________________________________________________________ Elly Tumwine Rweizire (mailto:[log in to unmask]) country logistician at UNEPI (EPI Uganda) has a question concerning environmentally-safe disposal of equipment containing chloro-fluorocarbons (CFC). I made some search myself but could not find any appropriate and practical answer. So here is the part of his message concerning this question. __________________________________________________________ I would also like to note that while countries are working with environmental protection programmes to formulate policies for safe disposal of CFC refrigeration equipment, what is the latest on policy as a guideline on the Technet desk? Thanks Elly __________________________________________________________ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- CONTRIBUTIONS: Contributions to: or use your reply button!
