The paper gives an overview of the U.S. EPA's pollution prevention (P2) research in three areas: (1) Surface Coating, such as wood furniture finishing, printing, and the use of adhesives and radiation-cured coatings; (2) Solvent Cleaning, such as vapor degreasing, process equipment cleaning, and in-process precision cleaning; and (3) Consumer/Commercial Products, including traditional consumer products (e.g., hair spray and household cleaners) and non-process solvent use in commercial operations such as textile manufacturing, roofing, and furniture refinishing. Generally, OCB projects can be divided into four categories: (1) Scoping Studies, (2) Technology Assessment and Development Projects, (3) Demonstration Projects, and (4) Technology Transfer Projects.
