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* |
---|---|---|---|
2021 |
Source Reduction:: S21: Optimized process conditions to increase efficiency
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T05: Employee recommendation (independent of a formal company program)
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management |
|
2020 |
Source Reduction:: W52: Modified equipment, layout, or piping[-100%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T10: Vendor assistance
|
W52: New filling equipment eliminated fugitive and air emissions Source Reduction - Ultrasonic sealing system eliminated a hot air sealing system preventing the air emissions |
2019 |
Source Reduction:: W13: Improved maintenance scheduling, recordkeeping, or procedures
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
W13: Improved maintenance and setup to prevent out of specification product Source Reduction - Working with an informal team to reduce out of specification product and determine the cause of the issues |
2017 |
Source Reduction:: W13: Improved maintenance scheduling, recordkeeping, or procedures[-5-14%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
W13: The waste generated is primarily due to out of specification product. We are continually trying to reduce the out of specification product to increase our yields through mechanical and operational continuous improvement projects. |
2016 |
Source Reduction:: W83: Modified packaging[-5-14%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
W83: New primary package resins are being introduced that should decrease the volume of damaged products that enter our waste stream Source Reduction: Source Reduction - We are continuously improving our process to prevent waste and damaged product. The main source of our pollutant waste stream is damaged or faulty packaging. We are implementing changes to our process in an effort to decrease our damaged packaging. |
2015 |
Source Reduction:: W13: Improved maintenance scheduling, recordkeeping, or procedures[-50-99%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
Source Reduction - We have had plant floor conversations regarding the cost associated with off spec product and the waste stream the product generates. Through these conversations we have implemented continuous improvement projects. Source Reduction: Source Reduction - Increased awareness of product loss creating the waste stream with the production team has driven a reduction of off spec product. |
2014 |
Barriers: B4-Other Environmental Practices B4 - Source reduction activities were implemented but were unsuccessful.
|
Other Environmental Practices: B4 - Source reduction activities were implemented but were unsuccessful. - We are in the process of changing our packaging to prevent leaking/damaged packaging. The leaking/damaged packaging is the primary source of our waste stream. |

2013 |
Source Reduction:: W19: Other changes in operating practices
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
Source Reduction - In the production areas using the chemical we determined where the product was being damaged causing loss of the chemical. We minimized the production loss and there by reduced the amount of the chemical that we need to dispose as waste. |
2012 |
Other Barriers to Source Reduction - The primary source of the phenothrin waste stream is damaged packaging. We are currently in the process of determining how to prevent damage to the primary packaging to prevent it from entering the scrap waste stream. If we can decrease the amount of damaged packages at our fillers we will be capable of reducing our overall waste stream of phenothrin. |
