Pulvermaling til industrivaskemaskiner - fra epoxy/polyester binder til polyester
Jensen Danmark skiftede fra en epoxy/polyester baseret pulvermaling (MAL kode 00-5) til en polyesterbaseret pulvermaling Mal kode 00-1. Malingen anvendes på det samme anlæg, har bedre tekniske egenskaber end den gamle og affaldet kan afleveres som erhvervsaffald. Der er en energimæssig besparelse (lavere temperatur). Til gengæld er den nyere maling dyrere i indkøb.

Brake cleaning
Lorry and van drum brakes are cleaned for repair- and maintenance purposes from mud, dust and sand by a hot water washer. This is a kind of wash stand fitted with a flow heater and a spray gun. The tap water is heated to 95°C and sprayed on the brakes thereby removing the dirt and also heating the brakes so they dry rapidly after cleaning. Thereafter the parts are reassembled.
Usually in garages aerosol cans containing highly volatile organic solvents are applied, having a high risk of fires and explosions as well as leading to inhalation of the solvents by the workers.
The German accident insurance recommends the hot water washers. The jet does not cause scaldings on the skin, because it is a very finely sprayed mist. When asked in Nov. 2007 the company confirmed, that they are still content with the process and that it is still being applied.

Alternatives to chlorine-containing lubricants for demanding metal working in stainless steel and titanium
Chloroparaffins are used in considerable amounts as high-pressure additives in metal working lubricants. They are considered risky in terms of health and the environment. The example is a summary of a project aimed at mapping existing alternative non-chlorinated lubricants for demanding non-cutting metal working tasks, testing the lubricating properties of selected lubricants, and evaluating the health-related and environmental properties of the lubricants.
