DATE: 2/15/01 <br /> SUBJECT: Hazardous Waste Source Reduction. <br /> ISE Labs purchased this plant in August of 1997 and there is no information available prior to that date. <br /> Since the above date the solid waste RCRA and NON-RCRA waste has bee reduced from 9.6 tons to less <br /> than 2.5 tons. This includes wastewater filtercake,flammable and combustible liquids. <br /> Wastewater has been reduced from 3457110 gallons annually to 3363460 gallons annually for a total <br /> reduction of 93650 gallons. <br /> This reduction was accomplished through a better and new plating line,which uses less water and less <br /> chemicals. <br /> The reduction in the lbs of wastewater filtercake was accomplished by changing the polymer and raising <br /> the pH to get better separation of metals from the wastewater. <br /> The reduction in combustible and flammable liquids were accomplished by placing the new mold presses in <br /> to use,this reduced the waste oil amount. <br /> Flammable liquid waste was reduced by changing the method of hand cleaning of parts. <br />
