4. The integration of environmental motives in innovation work
This section will present the results and analysis. The following brief case summaries are presented as a background for the ensuing more detailed analysis of the four cases.
The Chemicals Sweden site was part of a multinational chemicals concern with headquarters in the Netherlands. The production was focussed on bulk production of surfactants, delivering a moderate but reliable profit for the company.
The project studied was about increasing the capacity of the production line as well as improving quality, resource efficiency and cost-efficiency. Furthermore, the company had been taken to court over irregular emissions from this site, and environmental performance was also part of the project objectives. The main environmental aspects of the project were the efficiency of the new feeding and cleaning systems using pigging technology, and the treatment of toxic emissions in the ventilation gases. One of the main intermediate products was toxic and inflammable, and the use of a nitrogen ballast for containment was investigated.
