Barriers: B3-Other Environmental Practices B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction.
|
Other Environmental Practices: Recycling - For 2015 a previously disposed of waste was sold as a product. Cupric sulfate is produced as a by-product from a pickling operation. Metal alloys that go through this pickling operation include beryllium, copper, nickel, and lead metals. Previously this by-product was disposed of in a landfill. Currently the by-product is sold to another company for use as-is without reprocessing. Other Environmental Practices: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - The metal alloys produced at Materion require precise amounts of beryllium, copper, nickel, and lead. Waste metal is recycled and reused in alloy production. Raw metals are used only in amounts as needed to create the specialty alloys. Reducing amounts of metals used is not feasible in the production of specialty alloys. |
