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* |
---|---|---|---|
2015 |
Barriers: B6-No Information B6 - Pollution prevention previously implemented - additional reduction does not appear technically or economically feas
Barriers: B7-No Information B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. |
Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - While no new source reduction measures were implemented in 2015, the facility has been continuing its long-standing pollution prevention & source reduction programs and continually looks for ways to reduce the volume of wastes and scrap produced. |
|
2014 |
Other Barriers to Source Reduction - Although no NEW source reduction activities were implemented in 2014, the facility continued with its ongoing source reduction measures: Employee awareness, efficient manufacturing processes and proper raw material handling processes (both intended to reduce lead scrap of various types), storm water pollution prevention plan and best management practices, proper maintenance of all air pollution control systems, and other measures.Barriers include the limited technical means to change or alter the basic lead-acid battery manufacturing process. |

2013 |
Other Barriers to Source Reduction - Although no new waste minimization activities were INITIATED in 2013, Trojan Battery continues to utilize the following waste minimization activities: Good housekeeping techniques; on-going employee training; efficient production practices and ongoing management/technical evaluation of more efficient practices to reduce scrap and other waste; and others. The computer-based waste minimization methods presented on the TRI Form R system are too specific and do not accurately describe these ongoing methods and programs. |

2012 |
Other Barriers to Source Reduction - TROJAN BATTERY HAS CONTINUED ITS ONGOING WASTE MINIMIZATION PROGRAMS TO REDUCE EMISSIONS TO AIR, WATER AND AS A HAZARDOUS WASTE. PRODUCTION METHODS HAVE EVOLVED TO MINIMIZE AIR EMISSIONS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AND AIR POLLUTION CONTROL EQUIPMENT IS CONSTANTLY MAINTAINED AT ITS HIGHEST EFFICIENCY. HOUSEKEEPING AND FACILITY OPERATIONS HAVE IMPROVED TO ELIMINATE FUGITIVE AIR EMISSIONS AND TO REDUCE PARTICULATE ENTRAINMENT IN STORM WATER RUNOFF. TROJAN BATTERY RECYCLES (AT PERMITTED OFF-SITE RECYCLING FACILITIES) OVER 85% OF THE LEAD 'WASTE' GENERATED - WITH A LEAD RECYCLING RATE OF OVER 99%. |
