Pollution Prevention, Waste Minimization and Recycling

Utilizing fewer toxic materials or transitioning to non-toxic materials has been a goal for many companies across industries over the last 30 years. These actions typically minimize regulatory requirements while providing cost-effective solutions to protect the workforce and the environment. TRC provides comprehensive services for pollution prevention technologies, waste minimization and advanced recycling solutions. These services help industries decrease their regulatory requirements while identifying innovative ways to address their chemical, industrial, mechanical and environmental process challenges and needs.

Companies that routinely generate hazardous waste and other related waste have significant costs embedded within the organization to properly identify, manage, store, transport and dispose of these wastes. Companies that have examined and implemented innovative technologies to eliminate or minimize their waste generation and use greener chemicals have benefitted in lessening their environmental risks and costs. These activities will benefit the organization in its market competitiveness and minimize environmental risks in the future.
