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*
2013 Source Reduction:: W56: Reduced or eliminated use of an organic solvent
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T03: Materials balance audits
W56: We have existing overflow alarms and shut off valves that are being utilized. We conduct monthly inspections of containment areas including tanks, pipes, and pumps. We also conduct an annual SPCC inspection of the entire site

Source Reduction - We have existing overflow alarms and shut off valves that are being utilized. We conduct monthly inspections of containment areas including tanks, pipes, and pumps. We also conduct an annual SPCC inspection of the entire site
2012 Source Reduction:: W56: Reduced or eliminated use of an organic solvent
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T03: Materials balance audits
Source Reduction - There were no newly installed systems on plant site but we do have existing overflow alarms and shut off valves that are being utilized. We also do monthly inspections of containment areas including tanks, pipes, and pumps. There is also a yearly SPCC inspection of the entire plant site. There was a reduction in this TRI chemical being used in a wash step in one process. Some of the previous solvents had been disposed of as waste due to composition of the materials in the solutions. There is a more efficient method of separating the solvents resulting in the material being sold instead of being disposed of.
2002 Source Reduction:: W25: Instituted clearinghouse to exchange materials that would otherwise be discarde
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T10: Vendor assistance
1996 Source Reduction:: W52: Modified equipment, layout, or piping

Source Reduction:: W61: Changed to aqueous cleaners (from solvents or other materials)
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T01: Internal pollution prevention opportunity audit(s)
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T06: Employee recommendation (under a formal company program)
1995 Source Reduction:: W52: Modified equipment, layout, or piping

Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T01: Internal pollution prevention opportunity audit(s)
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
1994 Source Reduction:: W14: Changed production schedule to minimize equipment and feedstock changeovers

Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T01: Internal pollution prevention opportunity audit(s)
