This book was released on 1995 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has funded a pilot project to assist small and medium-size manufacturers who want to minimize their generation of waste but who lack the expertise to do so. Waste Minimization Assessment Centers (WMACs) were established at selected universities and procedures were adapted from the EPA Waste Minimization Opportunity Assessment Manual. That document has been superseded by the Facility Pollution Prevention Guide. The WMAC team at the University of Louisville performed an assessment at a plant that manufactures iron castings and fabricated sheet metal parts. Foundry operations include mixing and mold formation, core making, metal pouring, shakeout, finishing, and painting. Cutting, shaping, and welding are the principal metal fabrication operations. The team's report, detailing findings and recommendations indicated that paint-related wastes are generated in large quantities, and that significant waste reduction and cost savings could be realized by installing a dry powder coating system or by replacing conventional air spray paint guns with high-volume low-pressure spray guns. This research brief was developed by the principal investigators and EPA's National Risk Management Research Laboratory, Cincinnati, OH, to announce key findings of an ongoing research project that is fully documented in a separate report of the same title available from University City Science Center.

Book Hazardous Waste Reducation in the Metal Finishing Industry

Download or read book Hazardous Waste Reducation in the Metal Finishing Industry written by PRC Environmental Management, Inc and published by William Andrew. This book was released on 1989-12-31 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From the Foreword: " This book presents the results of a waste audit study for the metal finishing industry. The study, carried out for the State of California but applicable for metal finishers elsewhere, identifies opportunities for waste reduction available to the metal finishing industry and develops procedures that can be used by metal finishers to assess their own waste reduction opportunities. The study emphasizes technologies available to small- and medium-sized metal finishing plants. Typically, these shops operate a variety of physical, chemical, and electrochemical processes. Chemical processes include degreasing, cleaning, pickling, etching, coating, and electroless plating. Electrochemical processes include plating and anodizing. The tasks included in the study were: (1) selecting metal finishing plants to include in the study, (2) performing a waste audit at each selected plant, (3) developing recommendations for implementing waste reduction technologies at each audited plant, (4) discussing with facility representatives the feasibility of implementing the waste reduction recommendations, and (5) developing this waste audit study report and methodology. The study identifies three categories of waste reduction technologies that are available to metal finishers: (1) source reduction, (2) recycling and resource recovery, and (3) alternative treatment. The costs associated with implementing these technologies range from a few hundred dollars for making simple improvements in housekeepiing and minor process modifications to tens of thousands of dollars for installing recovery or treatment units. The benefits realized from implementing such improvements include reductions inmaterial purchase and waste disposal costs, as well as reduction in the liability
