Under the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990 (PPA), TRI collects information to track industry progress in reducing waste generation and moving towards safer waste management alternatives. Measures that facilities have taken to prevent pollution and reduce the amount of toxic chemicals entering the environment are shown in the table below. Although factors other than these reported practices contribute to year-to-year changes in releases, results are sorted by largest reduction in order to facilitate identification of pollution prevention successes. View the to learn about this report's features.

80301HSRCH5555A AGILENT TECHNOLOGIES BOULDER CO (AGILENT TECHNOLOGIES INC) 5555 AIRPORT BLVD,
BOULDER,
CO 80301
Dichloromethane 325412: Pharmaceutical Preparation Manufacturing 2016 245.90 115.01 -53.23 Source Reduction: W52: Modified equipment, layout, or piping[-0-4%] - Replaced 5,300 gallon bulk hazardous waste storage tank with a new, 14,000 gallon tank. The gasket/seal at the rupture disk on the emergency vent system of the old tank was sometimes leaking after a waste offload. The leak rate was monitored after waste offloads, and the rupture disk was being replaced, as needed. The new hazardous waste bulk storage tank has resulted in a reduction of fugitive emissions.

Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - Waste system components and bulk hazardous waste tank are monitored monthly for leaks using a flame ionization detector (FID). Chemical/process system components and bulk ACN tank are monitored quarterly for leaks using the FID. Incident investigations are conducted for all spills/releases involving chemicals to decrease the potential for a reoccurrence. Inspections of the bulk hazardous waste system and bulk ACN system are conducted daily. RCRA satellite accumulation areas and 90-day accumulation areas are inspected weekly. Identified leaks are repaired.
Other Environmental Practices: Energy Recovery - Bulk organic hazardous waste, solid hazardous waste, and drummed organic waste is sent off-site for energy recovery.
