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*
2024 Barriers: B7-Barriers to P2 B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies.

Barriers to P2: B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. - Zinc is present in both accelerators and the activator for latex. There are no known substitutes that can replace these materials while achieving the same physical properties within products.

2023 Barriers: B7-Barriers to P2 B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies.

Barriers to P2: B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. - Zinc is present in both accelerators and the activator for latex. There are no known substitutes that can replace these materials while achieving the same physical properties within products.

2022 Source Reduction:: S42: Changed production schedule to minimize equipment and material changeovers
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other
Barriers: B7-Barriers to P2 B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies.
S42: More runs of custom-made products contained higher percentages of Zinc. Smaller and infrequent runs of these products generated more clean outs.

Source Reduction - Once the orders for these materials are more consistent, different processes will be developed to result in less lost material.

Barriers to P2: B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. - Zinc is present in both accelerators and the activator for latex. There are no known substitutes that can replace these materials while achieving the same physical properties within products.

2021 Source Reduction:: S42: Changed production schedule to minimize equipment and material changeovers
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other
Barriers: B7-Barriers to P2 B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies.
S42: Larger batches of various products were produced in order to reduce the number of cleanouts.


Barriers to P2: B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. - Zinc is present in both accelerators and the activator for latex. There are no known substitutes that can replace these materials while achieving the same physical properties within products.
