S11: FM47 Adhesive used in AAR pallet production, a new aluminum extruded pallet is replacing the former 6E pallet that used FM47, balsa wood as the core in the 6E pallet. Source Reduction - US Airforce, University of Dayton Research developed the new "Next Generation" pallet that will evenrually replace the balsa core pallet. |

Other Environmental Practices: Energy Recovery - Adhesive waste is sent for fuel blend, energy recovery. Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - Maintain site SOP's to reduce spills, releases and implementation for keeping containers closed to minimize, reduce fugitive emissions. Maintain RTO operating temp. at <1400F to thermal destruct emissions. |

Source Reduction:: W21: Instituted procedures to ensure that materials do not stay in inventory beyond[-15-24%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T03: Materials balance audits
|
W21: Paints and adhesives containing toluene are disposed of that are beyond the manufactures shelf life. Source Reduction - Implement a weekly audit of max. minimums in the paint storage area to avoid over buying of raw materials. Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - Assist in management of expired chemicals on-site. Source Reduction: Source Reduction - AAR could see a reduction for production of the 6E pallet that is a primary end use of adhesive containing Toluene. US Air Force is transitioning to the next gen 6E pallet that does not use adhesive as part of the bonding process. |

Barriers: B6-Barriers to P2 B6 - Pollution prevention previously implemented - additional reduction does not appear technically or economically feas
|
Other Environmental Practices: Recycling - Facility manages waste generated from the processes with disposal facilites that employee solvent recovery or alternative fuels programs for waste streams. Barriers to P2: B6 - Pollution prevention previously implemented - additional reduction does not appear technically or economically feas - Site has a Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer in process for reduction of toluene emisisons. Other Environmental Practices: Energy Recovery - Facility manages waste generated from the processes with disposal facilites that employee solvent recovery or alternative fuels programs for waste streams. |
