Pollution is prevented through increased efficiency in the use of raw materials, energy, water and other resources; and through reducing or eliminating the use of hazardous substances in the production process. Activities for implementing P2 include: *Equipment or technology modification; *Process modifications; *Reformulation or redesign of products; *Substitution of raw materials; *Improvements in housekeeping, maintenance, training or inventory control. A process for comparing alternatives when considering alternative raw materials is detailed in this publication. |
