Full Title: AMC Hazardous Waste Minimization (HAZMIN) Workshop
URL: /23/22652.pdf
Length: 13 pages
Date: 1991
Section Author: Eichholtz, Richard L.
Abstract: transparencies from the presentation.
Section Title: Paint Stripping Using Sodium Bicarbonate Medium
Full Title: Joint Service Pollution Prevention Technical Library
URL: /01/00601.pdf
Length: 7 pages
Date: August 1996
Full Work Author: Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center
Abstract: An evaluation of one blasting technology for depainting aircraft. Sodium bicarbonate blasting is used in applications where the substrate is delicate and free of crevices that may lead to corrosion. This blasting medium, because of its low hardness, takes longer and has higher labor costs.

Full Title: Joint Service Pollution Prevention Technical Library
URL: /01/00611.pdf
Length: 9 pages
Date: September 1996
Full Work Author: Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center
Abstract: Basic facts on a widely-used aircraft depainting process. Includes cost data from three military installations using PMB.
Full Title: Project Summary - Bicarbonate of Soda Blasting Technology for Aircraft Wheel Depainting
URL: /01/00641.pdf
Length: 4 pages
Date: September 1994
Full Work Author: Chen, Abraham S.C.; Smith, Lawrence A.; Olfenbuttel, Robert F.
Abstract: An evaluation summary of the effectiveness and cost of this technology for replacing solvent paint strippers with bicarbonate of soda blasting of aircraft wheels. The evaluation was conducted at Johnson Space Center by EPA's Risk Reduction Engineering Laboratory. Cost estimates based on operating records are presented. The technology has good potential for reducing waste and disposal costs.

Abstract: This article discusses non-chemical paint stripping processes such as dry stripping, laser stripping, crystalline ice blasting, flashlamp, flashblast, and other methods.
Full Title: Project Summary - Evaluation of Propylene Carbonate in Air Logistics Center (ALC) Depainting Operations
URL: /01/00617.pdf
Length: 5 pages
Date: September 1994
Full Work Author: Rosenthal, Seymour; Hooper, Ann M.
Abstract: This report summarizes a study which evaluated a solvent blend (PC Blend 2) containing propylene carbonate as a potential replacement for MEK in aircraft depainting operations. Replacing MEK with PC Blend 2 will save an estimated $30,000 per year..

Full Title: Source Reduction and Recycling of Halogenated Solvents in Paint Stripping
URL: /01/00666.pdf
Length: 79 pages
Date: 1992
Full Work Author: Source Reduction Research Partnership
Abstract: The focus of this technical support document is alternatives to the use of halogenated solvents (mainly methylene chloride) for paint stripping. The source reduction options discussed include abrasive techniques, thermal techniques, use of non-painted surface materials, training of painters, stripping parts only when necessary, use of cryogenic techniques, use of alkaline or acidic strippers, recycle spent stripper, use of strippable coatings on paint booth walls, enclosed cleaning stations, high pressure water sprays and use of easy-to-clean equipment are discussed.
