Other Barriers to Source Reduction - We researched aqueous cleaners but they are not sufficient to keep up with production. We are now in the process of installing a new more efficient degreaser that will reduce solvent use. Also, looking at replacing the NPB with a substitute solvent. |
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.
