Source Reduction - We are continuing to improve our process to reduce our use and discharge of sodium. We have modified our process to stop using nitric acid which has improved our efficiency. Source Reduction - Management is continuing to look for opportunities to improve our recycling process and to reduce all sodium consumption. Source Reduction - Management audits the entire facility quarterly with a team to insure we are in compliance with all environmental requirements and to insure all equipment is in good working order, procedures are followed, and the facility is in good working order. Other Environmental Practices: Recycling - We are continuously looking for ways to improve our recycling efforts for sodium in our recovery process. We are monitoring our process to determine efficiency improvement points and to minimize waste. |
