Barriers: B3-Barriers to P2 B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction.
|
Other Environmental Practices: Energy Recovery - The solid waste from this material was diverted from landfill in 2016 to be used for energy recovery Barriers to P2: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - Source reduction for materials using this compound is not able to be implemented due to specific recipe usage requirements for clean room manufacturing. |

| 2012 | Other Environmental Practices - In 2012 changed from sending corrosive waste from landfill to waste to energy. The solid waste from this chemical is no longer landfilled. | ||
| 2011 | Other Environmental Practices - In 2012 WaferTech is in the process of changing the landfill waste to Waste to Energy, pending a successful TSDF audit of the site. This will decrease waste to landfill, debris would be used for energy recovery. | ||

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.

- A breakdown of production-related waste managed. This includes all amounts of the chemical released directly to the environment or otherwise managed as waste, other than waste generated by one-time events not associated with normal production processes (e.g., fires or remedial actions).
- A production ratio or activity index to provide context for reported toxic chemical quantities. For example, if a chemical is used in the manufacture of refrigerators, the production index would track the number of refrigerators produced and could be used to help gauge how much of the chemical is being released per unit of production.
- Any newly implemented source reduction activities, reported using "W-codes" (e.g., "W41: Increased purity of raw materials")
