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* |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 |
Source Reduction:: S03: Substituted raw materials, feedstock, or reactant chemical
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T10: Vendor assistance
|
S03: supply shortages and use of alternative cataylst with less Dimethyl phthalate being trialed and used |
| 2018 |
Source Reduction:: W53: Use of a differant process catalyst
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T10: Vendor assistance
|
W53: As raw material products and customer specifications changed several different catalyst were being used. Many of them did not contain DMP Source Reduction - Heloing us match the right performance catalyst with the changes in raw material products |
| 2017 |
Barriers: B3-Barriers to P2 B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction.
|
Barriers to P2: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - Catalyst is only used to help the product exo-therm ratio's off the catalyst are very scientific. We have looked at alternative products and try and always use what will work without causing parts to not set up which would create more emissions |
|
| 2015 |
Other Barriers to Source Reduction - Only using at 1 to 3 percent currently. This is the recommended amount any less would make the product not set up, anymore could create heat issues in the product. As we reduce styrene contents in our resins, many require different catalyst. This being the reason it is reportable this year. As other alternatives are reviewed, the product could be reduced. |

| 2012 |
Other Barriers to Source Reduction - This chemical is a component in our catalyst and although we have tried alternatives it has resulted in resins and gelcoats not setting up causing more warrenty issues and creating issues where we are re-producing the parts to get full cure. Therefore nothing is being currently modified. |

Source Reduction:: W42: Substituted raw 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: T10: Vendor assistance |
Source Reduction - Changes in our cataylst to lower HAP containing materials was experimented during the 2011 production year. Although production increased 8% our actual usage of the Dimethyl Phthalate decreased due to lower HAP contents in the Cataylst and using less due to changes in the weather. |
