Once the lamps are collected, they are processed in a machine that crushes and separates the lamp into three categories: glass, endcaps and a mercury/phosphor powder mixture. This is accomplished by injecting the lamps into a sealed crushing and sieving chamber. Upon completion, the chamber automatically removes the end products to eliminate the possibility of cross contamination. The end result of this process is a commodity grade pure end product that is reused in manufacturing. Throughout this entire process, a negative vacuum is maintained in the system to prevent leakage of mercury vapor into the processing area.  The small amount of exhausted air that is used in the process passes through a series of particulate filters and an 800 pound carbon bed which absorbs the mercury prior to exhausting to the environment. Endcaps and glass are removed and sent for reuse in manufacturing. Mercury/phosphor powder is further processed to separate the mercury from the phosphor. This is accomplished by using a burner to provide a heat source in driving the mercury out of the phosphor powder. A vacuum carries the vapor to a cooling area, where the mercury is condensed to a liquid state. The mercury than passes through several other separator features prior to being decanted at the removal point. After processing, the purified retorted mercury is sent for further distilling and resold as raw material.   > order service     Option 1 Timely Pick Up Service - Remove lamps from - fixtures. - Store lamps in boxes or - fibre drums. - Call EverLights for a pick - up.   Option 2 Pre- Paid Shipment - Remove lamps from - fixtures. - Store lamps in an - EverLights storage - container. - Ship full boxes to - EverLights using the - provided pre- paid UPS - label.   Option 3 Crushed Lamps - Purchase an EPA - approved lamp- crushing - unit from EverLights. - Remove lamps from - fixtures and crush in unit. - When your 55 gallon steel - drum is full, call EverLights - for a pick up.               9901 S.
