the air is there because the cans are flexible, and most people put pressure on the sides to open them. If there was no air then soda would spill out easily. It also allows the soda companies to put slightly less liquid thanis actually stated on the can.

Where do you refund energy drink cans what stores accept what cans and where?

Only the ones that have a refund listed on the top can be returned. The rest have to be recycled so that we can be "green" with our trash. Any store will take them back.
