4 Reasons Why Aerosol Can Disposal Saves the Environment / 10.24.16

In today’s day and age, our world needs to do everything it can to combat global warming and preserve the earth for future generations. Everyone can do their part. Whether you compost, recycle plastics, drive an electric car, or find another way to preserve the environment, you’re helping save the environment. If you use aerosol cans at home, work, or for some other reason, you should take advantage of aerosol can disposal to help save the world around you.n

4 Reasons Why Aerosol Can Disposal Saves the World

n

Aerosol Cans Can Be Considered Hazardous Waste

nDepending on the contents of the aerosol can, they can be considered hazardous waste. You’ve seen warnings about hazardous waste at hospitals and other locations. Would you just throw an aerosol can in the trash and let that waste seep into the ground at a landfill? By practicing proper aerosol can disposal, you avoid hazardous waste getting into the ground, water, and other areas around your home and community.n

Aerosol Cans Must Be “Empty” to Be Properly Recycled

nMany consumers assume when their aerosol can is empty, it’s okay to be thrown out and doesn’t necessarily need to be recycled. However, just because the aerosol can feels empty if it can still be sprayed, it needs additional steps taken before it can be properly recycled. Since consumers don’t realize this, they’ll often throw it in the trash and forget about it but the remaining liquids and gases in the aerosol can will be buried in a landfill where it could make its way into the ground.n

Aerosol Cans Don’t Breakdown in Land Fills

nMost metals don’t breakdown over time in landfills, including most of the components in aerosol cans. Combine that with a half full aerosol can and you risk the potential of that liquid or gas seeping into the ground at some point in time. By properly disposing of aerosol cans by taking them to a recycling center for consumers or investing in an aerosol can disposal system for warehouses and commercial buildings, you can prevent this from happening.n

Aerosol Cans Hurt the Ozone Layer

nAerosol cans that were packed with chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in the 1960s and 1970s were proven to have an effect on the earth’s ozone layer. While companies have found ways to make aerosol cans have less of an impact on the ozone layer, they still pose a risk to the air we breathe and the ground we walk on. While aerosol cans have a long shelf-life, when thrown in the trash instead of being recycled, those cans put our ozone layer and world around us at risk.nnAs you can see, aerosol can disposal is more important than ever to reduce our carbon footprint and help save the world around us. By understanding how aerosol can disposal can affect the environment, you can take steps to recycle your aerosol cans and save the planet.

3 Tips for Painting a Football Field / 11.01.16

Painting a football field seems straightforward to anyone who hasn’t tried before. If you’ve seen videos online of the National Football League (NFL) prepping for Sundays, you might think it takes a team of trained workers to get the job done right. You don’t have to be trained by the NFL to paint a football field before the big game. With these three tips, you’ll be painting a football field like a pro in no time.n

3 of the Best Tips for Painting a Football Field

nKeep in mind that painting a football field will never be an easy or quick task. By understanding that and planning before you begin, you can paint a football field that players will appreciate and will help fans keep track of the action.n

Maintain the Field Before You Paint

nBefore you begin painting a football field, make sure you mow the field and maintain it in the days leading up to the game. By maintaining the field, you make it easier to paint along with helping the paint last longer. Ensure the grass or turf isn’t wet when you paint. Check weather conditions before, during, and after the painting process to make sure it has time to dry.n

Use the Right Equipment and Accessories

nInvest in a quality paint striper for your football field. The right striper for your field can make the process more efficient and give you a better look when finished. Make sure to invest in string and learn how to use it effectively to paint straight lines. Stencils for your numbers, logos, and other aspects of the football field will make the look of the field more recognizable.n

Make Sure You Have Enough Man Power

nYou want at least three people to paint any football field. This just makes it easier, especially if you’re painting the field just a few days before a game. Two of these people will help move the strings for straight lines while the third person does the actual painting.nnSome other quick tips for painting a football field include painting on the side of the string used to mark lines versus the middle; keep warm water handy to help clean up oversprays and other mistakes; and when painting a logo, make sure to use a white base coat to make the logo pop.nnPainting a football field doesn’t have to be hard or time-consuming. With proper planning, the right tools at your disposal, and practice, you can paint the field like the pros.n

How to Recycle Aerosol Cans / 11.22.16

If you use aerosol cans in your home, understanding how to recycle the cans properly is essential. Aerosol cans have an environmental impact and are considered hazardous waste when the cans aren’t fully used in many locations. If you use aerosol cans, recycling them is the right thing to do for the world around you. Let’s look at how to recycle aerosol cans so you can do your part to help save the environment.n

How to Recycle Aerosol Cans Properly

nRead the directions and warning on each aerosol can you buy. These instructions will tell you how to use the can, along with how it should be disposed. Since the chemicals being used in each can will vary from product to product, you may need to recycle the can differently. Make sure to follow the instructions for disposal on the can.nnMake sure the can is empty by shaking it; if you don’t feel any liquid moving around, it’s empty. You can also make sure the can is empty by pressing down on the nozzle and ensuring it’s not clogged. If nothing comes out, even after shaking it, you’re safe to bring it to a recycling center for processing. As long as an aerosol can is empty, consumers assume they can throw the can in the trash. This just isn’t true. These cans should still be recycled to reduce their environmental impact.nnIf the can isn’t empty or you can’t tell for sure, you should take the aerosol can to a recycling center for proper disposal. Don’t try to take the nozzle off, puncture the can, or crush it at home to make to make it small. Let the recycling center use the tools at their disposal, like aerosol can crushers, to take care of the can for you.nnBy trying to modify the aerosol can, you can cause it to explode due to the pressurized nature of how aerosol cans work. Never throw away a partial or full aerosol can in your regular trash can either. Since the chemicals inside can be hazardous waste and impact the environment, you want to hold onto the cans in a safe place until you can bring them to a recycling center.nnNot all recycling centers can recycle aerosol cans, so make sure to call ahead and ensure they can take them. In some locations, cities have specific places you can take aerosol cans and other products to be recycled. Check your city’s website or give them a call to find out where you can recycle partial or full aerosol cans safely.

Selecting an Aerosol Can Disposal System / 08.31.20

A wide variety of major industries utilize aerosol cans, spanning industrial manufacturing, municipalities and vocational education, among others. What happens to an aerosol can after it has reached its useful life?nnProper disposal guidelines dictate that pressurized aerosol cans are typically sealed in a drum to be processed as hazardous waste at a landfill or facility. The cans are considered to be hazardous because they contain a liquid hazardous waste or are still pressurized, which may cause them to potentially explode at the landfills. Companies that do not dispose of aerosol cans properly risk paying hefty fines.nnProperly disposing of the cans, however, will save landfill space and reduce hazardous waste. Additionally, the processed cans may be sold as recyclable steel.nnSelecting the correct Aerosol disposal system allows persons to stay clean and mess free while remaining fully compliant with OSHA and EPA standards.nnNewstripe’s AeroVent Aerosol Disposal System helps you safely recycle your aerosol cans for recycling and assists environmentally-sensitive companies legally dispose of spent aerosol cans.nnAll our systems are easy-to-use. Mount the puncturing device onto any standard 30- or 55-gallon drum. Insert a can upside down and clamp into position. Activating the device penetrates the can with an angled pin. Remaining liquid contents pour out into the drum, along with the propellant and drains any remaining product along with the propellant into the sealed drum. A carbon filter absorbs any vapors and odors from the drum. Once full, dispose of it as hazardous liquid waste according to appropriate regulations.nnThe AeroVent Aerosol Can Disposal System is safe and the enclosed chamber protects the operator when puncturing and draining.nnThe system is easy to use along with being versatile and is EPA, RCRA, OSHA compliant.nnBy using an Aerosol Can Disposal System companies minimize the high expense of hazardous waste disposal utilizing the legal, easy way to turn empty aerosol cans into recyclable steel.n

Aerosol Can Disposal issues

nAs noted earlier, leftover materials in partially filled cans may qualify as hazardous waste. If a can is found to be inoperative or malfunctioning, returning it to the supplier will prevent the user from having to treat it as hazardous waste.nnCans that are punctured and drained are not considered to be hazardous waste and may be recyclable. Companies that use a significant number of aerosol cans may wish to consider aerosol-puncturing equipment, which allows the contents of cans to be safely removed and prepared for disposal.nnAerosol cans are normally manufactured from thin sheets of steel. The products they hold are highly pressurized with a number of types of hydrocarbon propellants, from carbon dioxide or butane or propane. In recent years, some scientists and environmental activists have linked chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) propellants to decreases in the planet’s ozone layer. Most manufacturers have shifted to propellants that are thought to be less damaging to the atmospherennAerosol cans should never be placed in fires or heated locations, because they may explode, and the propellant may be flammable. Cans that are still pressurized may also burst if place in a garbage compactor.nnIf cans that contain hazardous wastes are to be disposed, they should be placed in a special closed container displaying markings indicating that the waste is hazardous. The labeling should also indicate the specific types of waste and the date when the container began to be used. Keep records of when and how the waste was disposed or recycled.n

Why are aerosol cans dangerous?

nAerosol cans are dangerous because of the unusual mix of substances stored under pressure inside the metal canister. Even if the active ingredient is not a hazardous chemical (eg, food products) the can is still capable of exploding or turning into a dangerous projectile. The biggest problem with aerosol cans in the workplace is their potential to ignite or explode other Dangerous Goods and Hazardous Substance.
