2020 TRI Factsheet: Chemical - 1-Bromopropane, 0000106945
Data Source: 2023 Preliminary National Analysis Dataset (released September 2024)

The Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) tracks the management of certain toxic chemicals that may pose a threat to human health and the environment. Certain industrial facilities in the U.S. must report annually how much of each chemical is recycled, combusted for energy recovery, treated for destruction, and disposed of or otherwise released on- and off-site. This information is collectively referred to as production-related waste managed.


Map of TRI Facilities Reporting 1-Bromopropane
1-Bromopropane ranks 85 out of 531 chemicals reported to TRI in 2020 (Rank 1 = highest releases)

Under the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990, TRI collects information to track industry progress in reducing waste generation and moving towards safer waste management alternatives. EPA encourages facilities to first eliminate waste at its source (source reduction). For waste that is generated, the preferred management method is recycling, followed by energy recovery, treatment, and as a last resort, disposing of or otherwise releasing the waste. Learn more about Pollution Prevention and TRI.
