2011 |
Source Reduction:: W58: Other process modifications
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
W58: Based on a successful trial in 2010, we expanded generation of large columns via a closed molding process. This reduced the amount of resin required to produce a column of comparable strength, thus resulting in lower emissions. |

Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other
|
Other Environmental Practices - Development began on a closed molding process for large column production that would reduce the amount of resin required to produce a column of comparable strength. Production trials are occurring in 2011. |

|
Source Reduction - Undertook process optimization in order to minimize resin loading. |
2007 |
Source Reduction:: W13: Improved maintenance scheduling, recordkeeping, or procedures
Source Reduction:: W61: Changed to aqueous cleaners (from solvents or other materials) |
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T03: Materials balance audits

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.
