Barriers: B3-Barriers to P2 B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction.
Barriers: B7-Barriers to P2 B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. |
Source Reduction: Methods for Identifying Pollution Prevention Opportunities - Facility Chemists and Environmental team meet frequently to discuss source reduction opportunities and was to reduce emissions from this chemical. Barriers to P2: B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. - No known chemical substitute has equaled the quality properties of the current chemical used in production. Barriers to P2: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - Facility manufacturers Gas Chromatography columns and this chemical is a requirement for production. Reducing or removing the chemical would affect the performance of the column. |

Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - The facility continues to operate with an Environmental Management System based on ISO14001. Preventative Maintenance, Continuous Improvement and auditing continue help prevent unnecessary leaks, spills, and pollution. Barriers to P2: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - The facility manufactures general chromatography supplies for chemical analysis for the environmental, pharmaceutical and food safety industries. The products need to meet specific cleanliness and performance specs. |
