Environmental regulations are becoming increasingly stringent. Environmental concerns are a major consideration of industry. Government agencies are shifting their focus from pollution control to prevention. The 1990 Pollution Prevention Act declared environmentally safe pollution prevention to be the top industry priority and disposal to be the last resort. Toxic pollution problems begin upstream. Environmentally friendly hydraulic fluid will eliminate pollution and rising costs associated with hydraulic oil use. The paper will discuss the advantages of biodegradable nontoxic hydraulic fluids. Details will be provided on systems and component design considerations necessary for its use. Also detailed are the lower costs of fluid, disposal, record keeping, operation and energy conservation. Not all pollution prevention investments are without payback. Environmentally safe hydraulic system will actually save money.
