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* |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2021 | Other Environmental Practices - This chemical is primarily utilized for vessel cleaning and has a very high capture rate. | ||
| 2020 | Barriers to P2 - This chemical is primarily used for vessel cleaning and already has a very high capture rate. | ||
| 2019 |
Barriers: B6-Barriers to P2 B6 - Pollution prevention previously implemented - additional reduction does not appear technically or economically feas

| 2016 |
Other Environmental Practices - >90% of all eligible wastes at the facility are either traditionally recycled or transported off-site for energy recovery
Source Reduction: Ways P2 Was Incorporated in Original Process Design - This chemical is primarily used for vessel cleaning and has a very high capture rate |

| 2015 |
Other Environmental Practices - The chemical is primarily used for vessel cleaning and has a very high capture rate.
Other Environmental Practices: Ways P2 Was Incorporated in Original Process Design - 99.7 % of the BOE waste is sent for off-site energy recovery. |

| 2014 |
Barriers: B6-Barriers to P2 B6 - Pollution prevention previously implemented - additional reduction does not appear technically or economically feas
|
Other Environmental Practices: Energy Recovery - 93% of all eligible wastes at the facility are either traditionally recycled or transported off-site for energy recovery Barriers to P2: B6 - Pollution prevention previously implemented - additional reduction does not appear technically or economically feas - This chemical is primarily used for vessel cleaning and has a very high capture rate |
|
| 2013 | Source Reduction - Where possible, all waste streams that are shipped from the site are sent to an Energy Recovery facility for disposal. At the same time, the implementation of new product lines has shifted focus to other products that are less solvent-based and/or require less solvent-based cleaning. | ||
| 2012 | Other Environmental Practices - Where possible, all waste streams that are shipped from the site are sent to an Energy Recovery facility for disposal. |
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")
