Factual Definition of Refrigerators
Refrigerators are cooling appliances that use chemical refrigerants, such as Freon, to preserve food and beverages. These appliances contain sealed cooling systems that operate under pressure to regulate temperature. Common synonyms include fridge, icebox and cooling unit.
How Refrigerators Are Used in the Waste Industry
Environmental regulations strictly mandate that refrigerants like Freon be properly recovered by a certified technician prior to appliance disposal or recycling. Because of these chemical hazards, refrigerators can’t be thrown into standard dumpsters without proper processing.
