Abstract :
Fluke´s pollution prevention total quality team was created in 1992 in an effort to minimize SARA Title III releases and meet the Washington Department of Ecology´s requirement that facilities submit pollution prevention plans. Waste streams containing chemicals listed on the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) were identified and prioritized. Out of this developed opportunities for several pollution prevention projects conducted at the Fluke Corporation´s printed circuit board facility
