Nalco is making a concerted effort to move away from injection well and formation disposal, and is sending all liquid bulk waste for thermal treatment. In addition, variation in chemical usage and emissions from year-to-year is common with a batch specialty chemical process like Nalco's. |
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.
