Industrial Processes to Reduce Generation of Hazardous Waste at DoD Facilities. Phase I Report. Evaluation of 40 Case Studies.
Abstract
Many studies of DoD facilities have recommended industrial process modifications that would reduce wastes generated at the source, rather than concentrating efforts on end-of-pipe treatment facilities. Some of these studies, which included many featuring excellent cost/benefit raios, have been successfully implemented; some, however, have not. Therefore, the methods, such as incentives, and management practices used to successfully implement a given modification, are important factors in the evaluations of the case studies examined in this report.
