Toyo Tanso USA (TTU) is a large manufacturer of graphite components supplying various high-tech companies throughout the Pacific Northwest. The facility operates processes that generates various waste streams, all of which require a determination for proper disposal methods.
PBS was contracted by TTU to sample and provide a determination of spent by-product from a process known as graphitization. After sampling, PBS provided documentation and identified the means for beneficial off-site recycling of the material. This represented a substantial savings for TTU in decreasing their disposal costs and providing a valuable material for another company.
PBS also provides technical assistance as it relates to compliance issues and on-call environmental services. PBS provides waste minimization consulting services to TTU, in their efforts to accomplish environmental compliance and reduce operating costs.
