CFC recycling on the way up.
[In Dutch. / En néerlandais.]

Summary
In the Netherlands about 600,000 refrigerators are disposed of every year. Many of them are collected by special recycling plants. At one of them, about one-tenth of the discarded refrigerators and freezers are disassembled in an all-covering recycling line. CFCs are removed and regenerated for reuse. A problem, however, is the current environmental legislation, which does not yet fit in with this eco-friendly initiative.
