2022 |
Source Reduction:: S21: Optimized process conditions to increase efficiency
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
S21: The site has improved the process with small changes impacting the efficiency of the equipment. Other Barriers to Source Reduction - The site has been working on continous improvement activities to improve efficiency and stability of the process. Source Reduction: Source Reduction - The facility is looking at switching from methanol to other solvents in future product development. |
2021 |

|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other
|
S41: The process has been stabilized and optimized. Source Reduction - Process improvement opportunities |
2020 |
Source Reduction:: W13: Improved maintenance scheduling, recordkeeping, or procedures[-0-4%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other Barriers: B4-Barriers to P2 B4 - Source reduction activities were implemented but were unsuccessful. |
W13: Many items run in 2019 were prototypes. In 2020 there has been the opportunity for process stabilization. Source Reduction - Process improvement opportunities Barriers to P2: B4 - Source reduction activities were implemented but were unsuccessful. - Customer acceptance is an issue for changing chemistry. New products can evaluate other extraction solvents. |

2018 |
Source Reduction:: W13: Improved maintenance scheduling, recordkeeping, or procedures
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other |
W13: The facility tracks maintenance activities and uses break/fix for trends that require modification to schedules. Source Reduction - Continous improvement and statsistical analysis as well as FMEA's help determine ways to improve equipment operation, reduce scrap and increase yield. Source Reduction - The engineering team reviews the data and determines changes to scheduled PM. Other Barriers to Source Reduction - Products approved for a customer require customer change to implement equipment changes, and raw material substitution. Future products can take into consideration other solvents and or equipment changes. Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - The facility is in the process of implementing an Environmental Management system and obtaining certification, anticipated in 2020. |
