Abstract: An apparatus and method for reclaiming refrigerants is provided. Specifically, the reclamation system provides a decontamination system for removing contaminants from liquid and vapour phases of a refrigerant with an inlet and outlet control system to regulate the flow of refrigerants. The system is preferably operated in conjunction with a refrigeration circuit to provide heating and cooling energy. The system is effective in reclaiming both low and high pressure refrigerants.
