Because
pollution costs you money
High
production green sand foundries are under increasing pressure to reduce
hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
that are emitted during pouring, cooling and casting shakeout (PCS).
Smoke and odor from PCS emissions are a serious concern in the
workplace environment and a source of neighborhood complaints.
In 1988, the State of Wisconsin established regulatory limits for
the HAP benzene at 300 lbs/yr and for the HAP formaldehyde at 250
lbs/yr. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in August 2003
established a VOC emission standard of 20 ppm for new PCS lines at iron
and steel foundries. Since
most end-of-pipe treatment systems such as thermal oxidizers are energy
intensive and expensive, the foundry industry clearly needs alternative
pollution prevention strategies that economically comply with ever more
demanding air quality requirements.
Our
Sonoperoxone
® systems reduce your pollutant emissions to meet the
increasingly stringent government regulations and to satisfy your
increasingly sensitive neighbors.
