Pollution prevention opportunity assessment: Manufacturing and fabrication repair laboratory at Sandia National Laboratories
These two reports summarize pollution prevention opportunity assessments conducted jointly by EPA and DOE at the Geochemistry Laboratory (PB--93-146900) and the Manufacturing and Fabrication Repair Laboratory (MFRL) at the Department of Energy's Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) facility in Albuquerque, New Mexico, as part of EPA's Waste Reduction Evaluation at Federal Sites (WREAFS) Program. The assessments followed the general format of the Facility Pollution Prevention Guide (PB92-213206) and resulted in a number of pollution prevention options at both of the waste generating activities. While the two Laboratories selected generate only small volumes of waste, the significance of this project was in conducting a joint pollution prevention opportunity assessment with DOE and demonstrating the procedure with DOE's waste minimization network (Min Net). This report describes a Pollution Prevention Opportunity Assessment (PPOA) for the MFRL at SNL, Albuquerque, New Mexico. The WREAFS program, whose purpose is to identify and promote the use of pollution prevention techniques and technologies through technology transfer, provided an appropriate vehicle to accomplish these purposes.
