Pilot Control Technology Assessment of Chemical Reprocessing and Reclaiming Facilities. Walk-Through Survey Report of Solvent Resource Recovery, Inc., West Carrollton, Ohio

摘要

Solvent Resource Recovery, Inc., produces clean solvents from both chlorinated and non-chlorinated waste solvents collected from suppliers within a 300 mile radius. The chlorinated products include methylene chloride, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, trichloro ethane, and tetrachloroethene. The non-chlorinated products are blends from acetone to the higher boiling naphthas which vary depending on the supplier. The solvent recovery operations at SRR are modern and apparently well controlled. This is a clean and efficiently run plant. This company exhibited a conscientious attitude toward safety and a growing concern for worker health. Conspicously lacking, however, were industrial hygiene monitoring data to confirm the effectiveness of control technologies being used.
