Reporting Year | Section 8.10: Newly Implemented Source Reduction Activity | Section 8.10: Methods to Identify Activity | Section 8.11: Optional Pollution Prevention Information* |
---|---|---|---|
2015 |
Source Reduction:: W35: Installed vapor recovery systems[-50-99%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T01: Internal pollution prevention opportunity audit(s)
|
Source Reduction - We built a secondary enclosure around the manufacturing equipment to capture any fugitive emissions. We then routed those emissions through our oxidizer. |

Source Reduction:: W35: Installed vapor recovery systems
Source Reduction:: W89: Other product modifications |
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T10: Vendor assistance

2013 |
Source Reduction:: W19: Other changes in operating practices
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other
|
Source Reduction - Installation of the recuperative thermal oxidizers provides us with a more efficient method of emission destruction that the previous scrubbers. |
2012 |
Source Reduction:: W19: Other changes in operating practices
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other
|
Source Reduction - Production levels were down during 2012, due to less product demand. This resulted in less total Formaldehyde emissions in 2012. |
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.
