2022 |
Source Reduction:: S21: Optimized process conditions to increase efficiency[-0-4%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
Barriers: B3-Barriers to P2 B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. |
S21: The site continues to work on stability of the process and making small changes for stability. Barriers to P2: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - Changes to chemical in processing requires customer approval. Focusing on yield increase for smaller modifications do not require customer approval. |
2021 |
Source Reduction:: S41: Improved scheduling, record keeping, or procedures for operations, cleaning, and maintenance
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
Barriers: B3-Barriers to P2 B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. |
S41: The facility has improved preventative maintenance and operations. Source Reduction - Quality, yield, and equipment status are regularly reviewed. Preventative Maintenance is documented. Barriers to P2: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - Customer specifications are very specific. Changing chemistry in the process would require extensive customer testing and approvals. For existing products, this would not be economical. |
2020 |
Source Reduction:: W13: Improved maintenance scheduling, recordkeeping, or procedures[-0-4%]

Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other 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: T11: Other Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T03: Materials balance audits |
W14: Worked on scheduling to reduce waste during product runs by running product using the same mix concurrently to avoid cleaning and draining mix as waste. W52: Improved processing on equipment to reduce scrap. Also improved steps for better drying. Source Reduction - Continuous improvement activities by managment and porduction. Source Reduction - Production and operations review and implement on-going Source Reduction - Quality and operations reviews used to identify solutions to reduce scrap which would reduce use of DOP |
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 Barriers: B8-No Information B8 - A reduction does not appear to be technically feasible |
W13: The facility monitors its maintenance and requires tracking of completion of identified maintenance. Trends are monitored to improve PM. Source Reduction - Process improvement and continuous improvement activities. Statistical analysis to help with monitoring success of projects. Other Barriers to Source Reduction - Substitution and reduction is impaired by customer approval requirements for changes. Engineering continues to work on process optimization. R&D continues to look at opportunities for mixture and raw material options. Source Reduction: Methods for Identifying Pollution Prevention Opportunities - R&D investigates new membranes. Engineering works on optimizing the process. Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - The facility is in the process of implementing an Environmental Management system to assist with improved control. Capital projects and R&D for new membranes is on-going with the R&D team. |
