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* |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 |
Source Reduction:: S41: Improved scheduling, record keeping, or procedures for operations, cleaning, and maintenance
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T03: Materials balance audits
Barriers: B8-No Information B8 - A reduction does not appear to be technically feasible |
|
| 2020 |
Source Reduction: Source Reduction - Due to Covid-19 Sales of Chafing Dish Fuel was very low. Thus significantly lower emission. |
||
| 2019 |
Barriers: B7-Barriers to P2 B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies.
|
Barriers to P2: B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. - FancyHeat Corp. uses Methanol as a Chafing Dish Fuel Gel. This is still the largest Fuel used. The Ethanol type of Chafing Dish Fuel Gel is also an important fuel however it is stillsignificantly less in volume. |
|
| 2017 |
Source Reduction: Source Reduction - When receiving material, there is less time in delivering trailers being stationed, prior to transferring to bulk tank. |
||
| 2013 |
Source Reduction:: W32: Improved procedures for loading, unloading, and transfer operations
Source Reduction:: W35: Installed vapor recovery systems Source Reduction:: W52: Modified equipment, layout, or piping |
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T01: Internal pollution prevention opportunity audit(s)
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T01: Internal pollution prevention opportunity audit(s) Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T01: Internal pollution prevention opportunity audit(s) |
W35: We have completed the Vapor Balance installation on all our receiving tanks. |
| 2012 |
Source Reduction:: W32: Improved procedures for loading, unloading, and transfer operations
Source Reduction:: W35: Installed vapor recovery systems Source Reduction:: W52: Modified equipment, layout, or piping |
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T01: Internal pollution prevention opportunity audit(s)

Source Reduction - Vapor Balance is present from the storage tank loading and unloading to mixing tanks and packaging. |
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")
