Metals Industries Projects:
The American Foundry Society (AFS) hired KERAMIDA to review and update Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for a variety of alloys manufactured for member companies. KERAMIDA provided this service, to assure that the SDS meet the requirements of the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS).
KERAMIDA performed a study in 2005 for Indirect CO2 Emissions for a major European aluminum producer and developed a winning GHG emissions reduction strategy to successfully address the anticipated impact from the European Union’s CO2 regulations – Phase I (EU Emissions Trading Scheme Directive 2003/87/EC and resultant National Allocation Plans).
KERAMIDA completed a VAP Phase II Property Assessment at the former Cincinnati Die Cast facility at the request of the City of Cincinnati and a private developer. This site was one of the first to successfully go through the new streamlined Ohio VAP program, and has been highlighted by the OEPA as a case study for how to successfully work through the program.
