THE ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY VERIFICATION PROGRAM

ETV JOINT VERIFICATION STATEMENT

TECHNOLOGY TYPE: Aerosol can puncturing & draining
APPLICATION: Treatment of hazardous waste aerosol cans containing paints or non-halogenated hydrocarbon lubricants & cleaners.
TECHNOLOGY NAME: Aerosolv^® Aerosol Can Recycling System

COMPANY: Katec, Inc.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has created the Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) Program to facilitate the deployment of innovative or improved environmental technologies through performance verification and information dissemination.

The goal of the ETV Program is to further environmental protection by substantially accelerating the acceptance and use of innovative, improved, and more cost-effective technologies.   The ETV Program is intended to assist and inform those individuals in need of credible data for the design, distribution, permitting, and purchase of environmental technologies.

ETV works in partnership with recognized testing organizations to objectively and systematically document the performance of commercial ready environmental technologies.   Together, with the full participation of the technology developer, they develop plans, conduct tests, collect and analyze data, and report findings.

Verifications are conducted according to an established workplan with protocols for quality assurance.   Where existing data are used, the data must have been collected by independent sources using similar quality assurance protocols.

EPA's ETV Program, through the National Risk Management Research Laboratory (NRMRL), has partnered with the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) under an ETV Pilot Project to verify pollution prevention, recycling, and waste treatment technologies.   This verification statement provides a summary of performance results for the Katec, Inc. Aerosolv^® Aerosol Can Recycling System.
