A one-trip (disposable) refrigerant cylinder should be:
a.Never refilled or used to store recovered refrigerant
b.Refilled with recovered refrigerant to save money
c.Used as a recovery cylinder if it is clean

Explanation

Recovered refrigerant goes only into refillable DOT recovery cylinders. When empty and recovered, one-trip cylinders are rendered safe and recycled as scrap.
