1. Solid waste (rags, containers, cleaning supplies used with hazardous materials). Send to landfill.

2. Flammable liquids. Send as fuel supplement.3. Used oils. Send to recycle or fuel supplement.4. Fluorescent bulbs. Send to landfill.5. Empty drums. Send to landfill.6. Solder dross. Send to recycle

Solid waste (P2 opportunity)

Solid waste is being segregated with theobjective to reuse / recycle as much as possible, reducing waste send to landfill.Contaminated Rags – Send to incinerationPlastics – Send to RecyclePaper and plastics that contain solder paste – Send to recycle the metals.

Flammable liquids

Flammable liquids, starting on July 2007, Motorola change the Isopropanol base flux to a water base flux reducing the purchase of Hazardous Materialsand VOC’s generation to the air. The project lasteda year due to pilot runs setup in the wave soldermachines.

Earth Day

To celebrate earth day Motorola and other local industries participated in an event to build “papercrete”blocks, using recycled paper from the processes.

The project has the objective to built the first greenhouse in Nogales by December 2007. The team completed 869 blocks exceeding the goal of 800.

The event had the participation of the Mayor, General Managers from the Industries and the Semarnat (EPA) State Director.
