Workers are potentially over-exposed to methylene chloride (compared to the OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit of 87 mg/m 3or 25 ppm) when operating or maintaining the degreaser.
However, financial concerns appeared to play a role in the company's decision to continue use of the degreaser on a limited basis rather than invest in alternative technology for the remaining work that could not be cleaned in-line with the substitute.
Three factors have accounted for this dramatic reduction: improved controls on the degreaser that prevented losses and therefore conserved new use; the loss of two regular plating orders that included parts that consistently "required" methylene chloride degreasing; and source reduction process changes undertaken in conjunction with this study.
In the early 1990's, in response to the Clean Air Act requirements, and in order to decrease the volume of methylene chloride used to below the state and federal reporting threshold of 4545 kg/yr (10000 lb/y), the degreaser's refrigerated coils were refurbished and work practices were introduced to reduce emissions.
Workers potentially may still be exposed to methylene chloride while operating the degreaser, but the reduced schedule of use means that they are less likely to be over-exposed compared to the Permissible Exposure Limit.
