On-Site
Compressed
Gas Cylinder
Processing
We conduct cylinder recycling operations on non-hazardous and flammable compressed gas cylinders only. We do not handle Hazardous compressed gas cylinders (e.g.: Chlorine, ammonia, pentaboraine.) but can arrange for a responsible party to handle them if needed.
JSCGS will inspect and segregate hazardous and non-hazardous cylinders before starting cylinder operations.
Non-hazardous Gasses
Non-hazardous compressed gas cylinders are limited to oxygen, nitrogen, breathing air or materials that can be vented to the atmosphere. Cylinders will be inspected and cataloged. Then the cylinders will be vented and de-valved. De-valved cylinders will be marked and can be drilled to them render non-useable. Cylinders with damaged or inoperable valves shall have the valve bypassed and cylinder shall be drilled to render them non-usable.
Flammable Gasses
Flammable gases covered under this proposal are limited to propane, natural gas and acetylene. Flammable gases will be flared onsite. Cylinders then will be de-valved and marked. Cylinders then will be purged utilizing nitrogen. Purged cylinders then will be drilled to render them non-usable. Cylinders with damaged or inoperable valves shall have the valve bypassed and cylinder shall be drilled to render them non-usable.
Certificate of Recycling
JSCGS will provide a certificate of recycling for all cylinders recycled on site at the end of cylinder operations.

At San Diego Deconstruction and Demolition, we master both traditional demolition and deconstruction processes to meet the unique needs of our clients. In traditional demolition, our crews systematically dismantle building structures and send the source-separated remnants to the recycling yard, landfill, or specialized disposal facilities if necessary.
Deconstruction, however, involves meticulous planning and precision. This process requires detailed assessment of each structural component for potential reuse. Each salvageable material is carefully disassembled, sorted, packaged, and shipped for future reuse. Any non-reusable materials are responsibly recycled. Deconstruction embodies the purest form of recycling—reuse.
