ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY SOLUTIONS

Auto-Chlor's Eco Commitment

Auto-Chlor focuses everyday on finding new solutions to help deliver clean water, safe food, abundant energy and healthy environment while saving water and energy and reducing waste. Helping you to reduce your reliance on finite natural resources and achieve the best results at the lowest total cost.

Auto-Chlor System is committed to meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Our U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Safer Choice Program Recognized Cleaning Products packaged in reusable containers minimize the products impact by eliminating non-biodegradable refuse material hauled to landfill. Green Kleen products are highly concentrated cleaners that are safer for the environment. Green Kleen products clean with premium product performance.

To achieve clean surfaces and environments during processing, food and beverage manufacturers need to have a comprehensive, safer for the people and planet cleaning program and use the right cleaning products.

Auto-Chlor provides a complete program of products and services to help you maintain optimal plant hygiene, food safety, and cross contamination prevention. Our floor, drain and doorway sanitization programs help protect your products from environmental contamination. Regular nightly cleanup and continuous preventative steps during the production day will help control microbial growth and help minimize your food safety risk.

WHAT IS GREEN CHEMISTRY & WHY DOES AUTO-CHLOR BELIEVE IN IT?

Green chemistry is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the generation of hazardous substances. EPA’s efforts to speed the adoption of this revolutionary and diverse discipline have led to significant environmental benefits, innovation and a strengthened economy.

Green chemistry’s 12 principles

These principles demonstrate the breadth of the concept of green chemistry:

1. Prevent waste: Design chemical syntheses to prevent waste. Leave no waste to treat or clean up.

2. Maximize atom economy: Design syntheses so that the final product contains the maximum proportion of the starting materials. Waste few or no atoms.

3. Design less hazardous chemical syntheses: Design syntheses to use and generate substances with little or no toxicity to either humans or the environment.

4. Design safer chemicals and products: Design chemical products that are fully effective yet have little or no toxicity.

5. Use safer solvents and reaction conditions: Avoid using solvents, separation agents, or other auxiliary chemicals. If you must use these chemicals, use safer ones.

6. Increase energy efficiency: Run chemical reactions at room temperature and pressure whenever possible.

7. Use renewable feedstocks: Use starting materials (also known as feedstocks) that are renewable rather than depletable. The source of renewable feedstocks is often agricultural products or the wastes of other processes; the source of depletable feedstocks is often fossil fuels (petroleum, natural gas, or coal) or mining operations.

8. Avoid chemical derivatives: Avoid using blocking or protecting groups or any temporary modifications if possible. Derivatives use additional reagents and generate waste.

9. Use catalysts, not stoichiometric reagents: Minimize waste by using catalytic reactions. Catalysts are effective in small amounts and can carry out a single reaction many times. They are preferable to stoichiometric reagents, which are used in excess and carry out a reaction only once.

10. Design chemicals and products to degrade after use: Design chemical products to break down to innocuous substances after use so that they do not accumulate in the environment.

11. Analyze in real time to prevent pollution: Include in-process, real-time monitoring and control during syntheses to minimize or eliminate the formation of byproducts.

12. Minimize the potential for accidents: Design chemicals and their physical forms (solid, liquid, or gas) to minimize the potential for chemical accidents including explosions, fires, and releases to the environment.
