Barriers: B8-Barriers to P2 B8 - A reduction does not appear to be technically feasible
|
Barriers to P2: B8 - A reduction does not appear to be technically feasible - Ethylbenzene is present as an impurity in the Alkyd Resin materials. The facility cannot control the manufacturing process for incoming raw materials. There is a steady decline in the demand for Alkyd paint and the usage of Ethylbenzene closely correlates with this demand. Other Environmental Practices: Recycling - Our facility collects wash solutions from cleaning tanks as much as possible to reduce the amount of materials generated as waste. This material is recycled/reused into the next batch of paint. |
