I remember the discussion on this last year...

I don't fully know...

I know that They began renovating the building because there was a story in the local paper...

It is Massive money being given by the state to bring in high paying jobs...

I have seen the word frigc associated with it...
But have also seen more general references that made it less clear...

Your point about fittings seems right ...just don't know enough...
recovery equiptment is too expensive?

When it is up and running there will probably be a release that fully explains...My gut says it is related to frigc whether only equiptment or are they going to mix the blend now themselves since that was being done in Schenectady anyway...don't know...

Subcooler is probably too new since this was planned last year and cryogenic cooling has Polycold and APD Cryogenics...

Truthfully I don't know...

Schenectady Workers dismantling a billboard from the top of the
vacant former Maqua Printing Co. on Duane Avenue Thursday afternoon
accidently touched off a roof fire that took city firefighters
about an hour to extinguish.
The fortress-type building is in the early stages of a $3.5
million redevelopment. It will serve as a new plant to be operated
* by the Intermagnetics General Corp. of Latham.
"We received numerous calls from passing vehicles on the
downtown arterial reporting heavy black smoke coming from the
building," Fire Capt. Robert Stanley said regarding the 2:30 p.m.
alarm. He said there were no injuries.
Stanley said workers from the Whiteco Sign Co. were using
acetelyne torches to remove the sign when falling slag ignited the
roof.
Vladimir "Wally" Spigel, the project developer, said the fire
damage was limited, but smoke had spread throughout the building.
He said a roofing contractor had already planned to begin
installation of an entire new roof for the four-story building in
aweek to 10 days.
"We were lucky because the fire started while workers were there
and somewhat contained things before firefighters arrived," Spigel
said. "If the building was unattended at the time the damage could
have been heavy."
He said workers during the past several weeks have removed 30
dumpsters of old piping and other fixtures in preparation for the
building renovation.
He said the renovation will be completed by October.
