Development of options
Feasibility analysis
Implementation and monitoring

7. Cleaner Production: the Big Picture
Environmental audits
Material Balance at each step
Energy audit
Water audit
Waste audit
Cost analysis: Step by Step
Review of the Opportunities

8. Cleaner Production Program
Develop a representative chart of costs
Qualitative analysis of opportunities and risks
Select key investigations
Develop strategies via:
Gaining commitment from top management
Consulting with in house experts
Engineering design
Long time workers
Analyze costs and benefits including payback time

9. Cost Saving Opportunities
Raw Materials
Try bulk purchase
Refill containers
Buy flexible packaging
Buy concentrated solutions
Shop around and prefer local suppliers
Use recycled raw material where possible

10. Cost Saving Opportunities
Consumable
Keep record
Use both sides of paper
Use recycled toner cartridges
Decentralize purchasing

11. Cost Saving Opportunities
Energy
Paint walls as white
Use clean panels in ceilings
Increase number and size of windows
Keep a gap between start of heavy machinery
Minimize heat losses
Develop a culture of turning the light and machine off when not in use
Check pressure lines on regular basis
Replace high power light fixture with low power ones
Use of LED Lights

12. Cost Saving Opportunities
Maintenance Cost
Switch from break down maintenance to
Preventive maintenance
Predictive maintenance
Keep all machinery well lubricated
Keep maintenance record of each equipment
Never use sole supplier for equipment and spares
Keep in touch with modern developments and budget for replacement of equipment
Switch to long life chemicals

13. Cost Saving Opportunities
Water Management
Think through operations and minimize raw material consumption
Segregate effluent streams with reuse focus
Segregate solid waste streams with recycling focus
Ask your supplier to take back waste chemicals
Shop around for most economical waste collector

14. Cost Saving Opportunities
Water Consumption
Conduct an internal water use and quality survey
Indentify wastewater streams that can be diverted to reuse
Explore storm water harvesting opportunities
Use low flow rate water saving showers
Apply high temperature, high pressure water to clean large vessels
Fix leaky taps

15. Cost Saving Opportunities
Packaging
Quarterly review most popular and unpopular packaging
Design packing as to maximize reuse and recovery of products
Convince suppliers to take their packaging back
Shred and reuse waste packaging for shock absorbing materials

16. Cost Saving Opportunities
Improve house keeping
Substitute materials
Change process or technology
Reformulate or redesign products
Reuse and recycle materials on site

17. Cleaner Production Practices
Improve Housekeeping
Reduce raw material and product loss due to leaks and spills etc.
Improve monitoring of operations and maintenance
Schedule production to reduce cleaning
Train employees in cleaner production ownership
Improve management inventory of raw materials and products
Waste heat recovery

18. Cleaner Production Practices
Material Substitution
Replace toxic solvent based coatings with less toxic water based coatings
Eliminate hazardous materials
Change process or technology
Use mechanical cleaning devices
Reduce high pressure in lines to reduce fugitive emissions of air toxins

19. Cleaner Production Practices
Reformulate or Redesign Products
Analyze impact created by products over their life cycle
LCA: Cradle to Death
Formulate Lead free paint
Reuse and Recycle Material on Site
Utilize wastewater and energy
Reuse product rejects
Separate waste streams

20. Cleaner Production: General Outcomes
