P2 Search | US EPA

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.

Year-to-Year Comparison:

FACILITY NAME	ADDRESS	CHEMICAL	INDUSTRY	YEAR	PRIOR YEAR RELEASE *	CURRENT YEAR RELEASE *	PERCENT CHANGE	POLLUTION PREVENTION INFORMATION (ACTIVITY CODES/TEXT)
ARKEMA COATING RESINS PLANT (ARKEMA DELAWARE INC)	19206 HAWTHORNE BLVD TORRANCE, CA 90503	Acrylamide	325211: Plastics Material and Resin Manufacturing	2011	1.00	0	-100%	The manufacturing process has a vapor capture system that directs process vents to air pollution control equipment. The air pollution control equipment is either a thermal oxidizer, or when that is not available, to a scrubber. This air pollution control equipment is in-line with manufacturing process equipment, and operates when the processing of TRI chemicals occurs. There is no provision for storage of this TRI chemical for subsequent processing. Air releases from air pollution control equipment are captured in Section 5.2 as stack or point source emissions, as the TRI instructions state.
