Need More Sustainability Results?
Many companies want real environmental sustainability results. Sustainable Manufacturing XPS™ assists by generating technical process efficiency improvement ideas for material waste and energy reduction, emissions reduction, hazardous material usage reduction, and water usage reduction. It also helps with implementing sustainability projects and tracking KPI metrics.
Magnitude of Hazardous Waste Generation
In the United States, there are over 100,000 environmental professionals working hard every day to comply with Federal, State and local environmental regulations and environmental permits. Despite their best efforts, a substantial amount of land, air and water pollution is generated.
According to the Federal Register, there are approximately 160,000 sites generating 11.8 billion pounds of hazardous waste each and every year. Additionally, it is costing manufactures hundreds of billions of dollars each and every year to generate this waste!
UN Indicator 12.5
Substantially Reduce Waste Generation
By 2030, substantially reduce waste generation through prevention, reduction, recycling and reuse.
At PROCOR, we’re supporting the circular economy principle of eliminating waste and pollution by helping companies improve process efficiency and implement innovative source reduction programs.
EPA Waste Management Hierarchy
The EPA encourages source reduction as the most environmentally preferred pollution reduction strategy. However, from a review of 175 sustainability scorecards shown in annual reports, less than 7% reported any source reduction activities.
Source Reduction:
Differs from all of the other categories because the waste is not created in the first place. All of the other categories deal with what to do with a waste after it is generated.
Sustainable Manufacturing XPS
Sustainable Manufacturing XPS™ can help your company achieve source reduction by reducing wasted raw materials, energy and pollution. Your sustainability results will increase.
It logically asks the right questions to quickly identify opportunities to improve your system. Simply use your cell phone or computer to answer multiple choice questions. Several ideas will be suggested and you can determine which ideas will best help you meet your sustainability goals.
Sustainable Manufacturing XPS also helps with results measurement. Sustainability metrics include:
- Emissions Reduction CO2
- Emissions Reduction GHG
- Emissions Reduction HAP
- Emissions Reduction NOx
- Emissions Reduction PM10
- Emissions Reduction PM25
- Emissions Reduction SOx
- Emissions Reduction VOC
- Energy Reduction
- Hazardous Material Usage Reduction
- Hazardous Waste Reduction
- Material Waste Reduction
- Non-Hazardous Waste Reduction
- Water Usage Reduction
Targeted Waste Reductions
Sustainable Manufacturing XPS™ can help reduce wastes that will make substantial environmental impacts. It has the capability to help you eliminate a hazardous component in a waste stream to render the component non-hazardous. It can also reduce materials in wastes to help make waste disposal, recycling or reuse easier.
Supply Chain Sustainability Initiative
The Supply Chain Sustainability Initiative expands process efficiency improvement efforts to multiple sites, culminating in substantial environmental sustainability results and demonstrating your environmental stewardship.
Sustainable Manufacturing XPS™ will calculate all unit conversions for you to measure KPI’s for each individual site and the aggregate total for all sites.
ISO 14001 and ISO 50001
Sustainable Manufacturing XPS™ enhances an ISO 14001 Environmental Management System and an ISO 50001 Energy Management System by supporting continuous process improvement, cost reduction and environmental sustainability. It provides a technical review of your systems to identify specific sustainability opportunities.
