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 Barriers: B5-Barriers to P2 B5 - Specific regulatory/permit burdens.

Barriers to P2: B5 - Specific regulatory/permit burdens. - Current operating permit includes previously implemented pollution prevention systems.

Other Environmental Practices: Waste Treatment - Envirite of Pennsylvania, Inc. is a hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal facility (TSDF) currently operating under a RCRA Part B Permit. Whenever possible, hazardous waste toxicity is removed or reduced by chemical stabilization. However there are some wastes, due their matrix and / or hazardous constituents, which are not compatible or responsive to the treatment process.

TRI Pollution Prevention Glossary

The Waste Management Hierarchy

The waste management hierarchy established by the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) guides waste generators toward the best options for managing wastes. The preferred option is to prevent pollution at its source, but for waste that is generated, the preferred management methods are recycling, followed by burning for energy recovery, treatment and, as a last resort, disposing of the waste.
  • Source Reduction includes activities that eliminate or reduce the generation of chemical waste.
  • Recycling includes the recovery of a toxic chemical in waste for reuse.
  • Energy Recovery includes the combustion of toxic chemicals in waste to generate heat or electricity.
  • Treatment includes the destruction of a toxic chemical in waste.
  • Disposal or Other Releases includes toxic chemical quantities entering the environment.
The PPA requires facilities to provide the following details about each chemical they report to TRI:
Facilities may also provide optional Pollution Prevention Information describing their source reduction, recycling, or pollution control activities.
