Here are Angelo’s calculated reductions in air pollution (VOCs):
•
Roller solvent: 6.43 lbs/gallon prior to GBP to 0.8 lbs/gallon after the GBP. That’s a reduction of 5.63 lbs/gallon and he uses approximately 60 gallons/year.
•
That’s a reduction of 337 lbs/year of VOCs from his roller solvent.
•
The same calculation for his blanket wash was 112 lbs/year.
•
Total reduction is 449 lbs of VOCs reduced per year from one small shop in Santa Cruz.
