Pollution Prevention Activities for Selected Chemical


Reporting Year Section 8.10: Newly Implemented Source Reduction Activity Section 8.10: Methods to Identify Activity Section 8.11: Optional Pollution Prevention Information*
2012 Other Barriers to Source Reduction - Site decants Bromotrifluoromethane directly from the 2000 lb. storage bullets to the fire extinguishing bottles. The only loss is from small fugitive emissions during the disconnection at the fill port of the fire extinguishing bottle and the storage bullet.The fugitive loss is minimal, much less than the estimate of 250 lbs.

2011 Source Reduction - The site transfers Halon 1301 from bullets directly into fire extinguishing bottles. The only loss of Halon from the filling process is the fugitive emissions that occur during the disconnection of the fill ports. This amount is minimal. The elimination of a bulk storage system in 2010 has eliminated the potential for releases.

Source Reduction - Transfer of material from bullet containers to bulk storage system ended in April 2010. The facility now fills product directly from bullets into product vessels. Due to a failure of a pump and back-up system, and the contamination that occurred related to the loss; the bulk storage system was eliminated. The elimination of the bulk storage system eliminates the possiblity to excessive leaking occurring. A portion of the material in the bullet (known as a 'heel') remains due to inability to put a full vacuum on the bullet. This amount is sent back to the vendor for cleaning and re-use.

Other Environmental Practices - The facility continues to work to improve our communication and knowledge in regards to the logging and tracking of the use of this chemical. The company continues to look for new opportunities to replace Halon 1301 with products from EPA's SNAP list.
