Question 22Refrigeration & AC - QMED
70% to passIn reclaiming recovered refrigerant, which type of contamination will the reclamation process be unable to separate?
Amoisture
Bacid
Cmixed refrigerants
Dair
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) mixed refrigerants. The reclamation process is unable to separate mixed refrigerants, as the different types of refrigerants cannot be easily distinguished and separated. The reclamation process is designed to remove contaminants such as moisture, acids, and air, but it cannot effectively separate a refrigerant mixture into its individual components. Attempting to reclaim a mixed refrigerant would result in a blended product that may not meet the purity standards required for reuse. The other options, moisture (A), acid (B), and air (D), can be effectively removed through the reclamation process, as these are the types of contaminants that the process is designed to address.
