The point is that R12 and R22 are no longer used in new equipment. *In
fact, it is hard to buy R12. *Either R22 or R12 used to be used as a
parts cleaner but is no longer. *Both of them were used to "inflate"
styrofoam but no longer, so the amount of these going into the air is
tiny compared to what it used to be.
I happen to have a full cylinder of R12 in the lab I am keeping for
"something".
nom is simply clueless about anything techno or "sciencey"

We used to use R12 as a PC board cleaner when a newly soldered board
came out of the wave soldering machine. *It cleaned the flux and crap
off the board very efficiently. *We haven't been able to buy drums of
it in at least 15 years. *Went to a water-soluble flux long ago.

And what would nom have me do with this cylinder of freon? What about
the 28 lbs of potassium cyanide (I only wanted 28 grams). I think I
am more capable of handling this stuff than the county waste people.

My wife has a 5 lb bucket of mercury. Like you she may need a couple of
ounces a year but, you can't buy mercury in sub bucket quantities. Her
companies regulations are more stringent than the county, state and
federal government.

Just out of curiosity, what does she use mercury for?
