Tuesday May 4, 2010 9:00 am – 9:50 am

T-1 Understand CleaningBarbara and Ed Kanegsberg , Owners, - BFK Solutions, LLCThis session is a practical overview of the basic chemistry and physics of clean-ing. Cleaning processes including aqueous, solvent and “non-chemical” cleaning and the universal steps in the cleaning process will be covered. Attendees will understand potential positives and negatives of various cleaning processes on their products.

T-2 Managing Environmental Implications in Component CleaningIan Parry, Business Development Manager – Layton TechnologiesEnvironmental regulation, both state and federal, place many constraints on component cleaning in manufacturing. If managed correctly, these constraints do not need to affect efficiency or increase the cost. Based on experience in both the U.S. and Europe, this paper will show how companies can achieve optimum cleaning, with responsible environmental adherence but without compromising cleaning efficiency.

T-3 Recycling Aqueous Cleaners in Coating Operations— Introducing A “New” P2 Technology to Industry...Raymond Graffia, Jr, President – Arbortech CorporationApplying membranes to coating operations is not a new concept, but the application to utilize them in recycling pre-coating wash tanks is new. In the past, the complexity has precluded implementation of proven P2 technique for water-based cleaner recovery. Several advancements, coupled with the introduction of more operator-friendly, lower cost equipment and the aforementioned decreased availability of water have combined to make the recycling of aqueous cleaners a viable option, with a strong payback, to the powder coating, painting and plating communities. 10:00 am – 10:50 am

T-1 Parts Cleaning FundamentalsSuresh Patel, Chemetall U.S., Inc.This presentation will focus on different cleaning technologies (mechanical and chemical primarily) and issues specific to the parts cleaning/gross metal cleaning industry. It will provide a foundation of critical terminology to enable intelligent decisions in the selection, design, installation and upgrade of a cleaning system. It will highlight topics including pretreatment, contamination, types of cleaners, types of processes, rinsing and drying, and verification. Process automation, safety and preventative maintenance of equipment will also be covered.

T-2 Bioremediation in Parts Cleaning: Fact and FictionOnofre Ortiz and Thomas W. McNally, ChemFree CorporationBioremediation—degradation of organic matter using microorganisms – is a commonly used tool in environmentally friendly methods to clean contaminated aquatic and terrestrial sites. It uses naturally occurring microorganisms to break down hazardous substances into less toxic substances. Bacteria have been successfully applied to parts cleaning systems to degrade contaminants such as grease, oil and fat. Facts and legends about this process including how it applies to the cleaning field, safety of the microbes, advantages of the system, as well as test results will be discussed in this presentation.

T-3 Precision Cleaning - Path to PremierScott E. Mackler, Operations / Assembly Department Supervisor, ITT Corporation, Space Systems DivisionThe Precision Cleaning Path to Premier Project was a major capital project and is a key element in the approved Premier Resource Management – Integrated Supply Chain Footprint Optimization Project. Process improvements and new-cleaning equipment are projected to increase 1st pass yield from 78% to 98% avoiding $300K+/yr. in rework costs. Cost avoidance of $350K/yr. will result from elimination of rent, IT services, transportation, and decreased utility costs. Savings due to reduced staff expected to net $4-500K / yr..

11:00 am – 11:50 am

T-1 A Low-Cost Path to Solvent Blend Prediction, HSP Analysis, and Cleaning VerificationDarren Williams, Sam Huston State University – Chemistry DepartmentIn 2007, we began working with the Department of Energy on solvent substitution for their polymer-bound explosive formulation and demilitarization cleanliness veri-fication processes. Since that time, we have added solvent blending and cleanli-ness verification capabilities on a reasonably small budget. This presentation will describe the addition of contact angle analysis, hydrometry, surface tensiometry, Hansen solubility parameter (HSP) analysis, and blend prediction capabilities to our laboratory for very little cost. Several common pieces of equipment were already in place and existing or free software was used to collect the data and to perform the analyses. Very few items were purchased and for these items, a listing of our suppliers and estimated costs will be provided.

T-2 EPA’s Significant New Alternatives Policy Program and Alternative CleanersMargaret Sheppard, Environmental Scientist, U.S. EPAEPA’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Program reviews alternatives to ozone-depleting solvents, including both alternative solvents and alternative cleaning technologies. This presentation will discuss the status of hydrochloro-fluorocarbons (HCFCs) under new EPA regulations; alternative cleaners currently under review by the SNAP Program; and EPA’s review of n-propyl bromide for use as an aerosol solvent.

T-3 Cleaning Revolutionized for Sustainability and Reduced Water FootprintJohn Scambos, President, Aqueous Recovery Resources, Inc.The EU has enacted the REACH program, which is being directly applied to certain common surfactants used in aqueous cleaners. This action, coupled with the spike in energy costs recently experienced across the globe, forced metal fin-ishing operations to reevaluate every aspect of the cleaning and pre-treatment process. Working with their suppliers, major automotive companies in Europe developed processes that were effective at significantly lower temperatures and with chemistries that were more easily treatable. Discover how these efforts have paid off handsomely for companies such as Daimler, and hear case studies dem-onstrating their applications and the results achieved by the leading companies adopting them. 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm gROUP LUNCHEON

Tuesday May 4, 2010 continued

1:10 pm – 2:00 pm

T-1 Your questions: AnsweredJohn Durkee, Consultant, Precision CleaningThis one-hour presentation will answer in detail frequently-asked questions about how to manage cleaning technology. Attendees will leave with full understanding about how technology can produce results.

Commonly asked questions that will be answered include:

• Why the water break test is a poor test for cleanliness quality. • Why the flash point test is also poor, and what it means. • Why chlorinated solvents have been long-used, and are hard to replace. • Why the best cleaning technique may be to wait. • Why and how surface tension is used to control an aqueous cleaning bath. • Why water is so hard to dry from parts.

In addition, participants will have an opportunity to ask their own questions about any phase of parts cleaning.

T-3 Implement and Improve the Cleaning Process Barbara and Ed Kanegsberg , BFK Solutions, LLCOnce you understand how cleaning works, it is time to put the new cleaning process into action. This session reviews fundamentals of process design, with the goal of matching the best product design with the best process design. Crucial production issues will be discussed including planning for adequate throughput, instituting and maintaining process control, understanding and controlling hidden costs of cleaning, automation, and safety/regulatory considerations. Attendees will learn how to work with vendors and suppliers and how to evaluate and test new processes before making costly investments.

2:10 pm – 3:00 pm

T-1 Cleaner Selection SimplifiedCharlie Pitarys, Sales Technical Manager, KyzenThis presentation addresses the steps needed to maximize production value while developing, optimizing and simplifying the cleaning process. Basic principles of design for aqueous wash cleaning are introduced. Information will be shared on development of the cleaning process and wash chemistry selection. Case studies of actual cleaning challenges and wash processes will be explored along with problem solving and bath maintenance methods.

T-2 Low gWP Fluorinated FluidsJoan Bartelt, Technical Service Manager, DupontA new class of fluorinated fluids has been developed that show remarkably low Global Warming Potential (GWP) compared with the majority of commercially available fluids. These fluids show good performance in a variety of cleaning and carrier fluids applications, both neat and as azeotropes with other solvents. As-pects of key product properties, including environmental and toxicity properties, will be discussed.

T-3 greening Cleaning: getting the Science to the ShopWayne Ziegler, Materials Engineer, U.S. ArmyCan NASA and DoD effectively implement green cleaning alternatives with mini-mal impact on weapon system performance, operations productivity or cost? The objective of this presentation is to discuss Joint Service Solvent Substitution (JS3)

Legend






efforts to implement environmentally responsible and technically sound clean-ing. The presentation will show that being “green” is not the key to a successful environmental program; equally or more important are economic factors and en-gineering impacts of changes. This presentation focus will be on the challenges of implementing alternative products and controlling the reintroduction of less desirable products. 3:10 pm – 4:00 pm

T-1 A Balancing Act: The Right Solvent for Cleaning and the EnvironmentJeff Davis and Bob Farrell, Technical Director, Hubbard HallIndustry continues to react to increasing pressure from environmentalists and organizations reenergized by new findings and a new administration. The impact of these efforts will force companies that rely on affordable solutions to meet these challenges in the coming years while maintaining a sustainable and profitable business. The long term answer for dealing with these challenges will come in three parts: What is the contaminant to be removed? Is a solvent or aqueous cleaning system preferred? And what equipment will work best?

T-2 Environmentally Friendly Non-Aqueous Cleaner for Aerospace Cleaning ApplicationsEl Sayed Arafat, Materials Engineering Division, NAVIARTo meet new regulations, a new specification MI-PRF-32295 entitled “Cleaner, Non-Aqueous, Low-VOC, HAP-Free,” was developed to provide environmentally friendly cleaners to the DoD services. This specification covers non-aqueous cleaning solvents that are free of hazardous air pollutants and contain a low amount (no more than 25 g per liter) of volatile organic compounds for cleaning air, sea, and ground vehicle components. It is anticipated that users in DoD services and com-mercial airlines will adopt these new environmentally friendly cleaners.

T-3 case study: Conversion to Aqueous Cleaning from Trichloroethylene For a High Speed Stamping ProcessChuck Sexton, Industrial Products Sales Manager, KyzenDue to EH&S issues, a large manufacturer of stamped / gear shaped steel parts for Tier 1 / Tier 2 automotive applications was required to replace its large trichlo-roethylene vapor degreasers with efficient and safe aqueous cleaning processes. The cleaning objectives were to remove both water soluble and insoluble stamping oils to a cleanliness level required for acid etching / coating / bonding procedures. Learn how this plant’s goals were met and how you can do the same. 4:10 pm – 5:00 pm

T-1 The Development of a general Cleaning Performance SpecificationDennis Helfritch, Richard Squillacioti and Wayne Ziegler U. S. Army Research LaboratoryA multi-service group of specialists was convened in early 2008 and tasked by the Joint Service Solvent Substitution Working Group to develop a general cleaning performance specification that will simplify cleaning maintenance documents and enhance the DoD’s ability to adapt to changing regulatory environments. Agree- ment had to be reached on meaningful and manageable “classes” and “types” of cleaners. Performance requirements had to be identified for a range of multi-service applications, yet the specification could not be unreasonably complex. The frame-work of the specification document and the overall consensus of the group effort will be presented.

T-2 Flash Evaporation of Waste WaterBill Svec, Industrial Sales Manager, RGF Environmental Group, Inc.Flash evaporation has been in use by RGF since 1995 and has proven its value in many applications. Waste water containing various contaminants can be effectively reduced to a dry residue using this technology. The remaining dry residue is easily removed from the system and, with proper testing, may be discarded as non-hazardous waste. The process is fully automated and can evaporate up to 3,600 gallons in a 24-hour period.

T-3 Safely Managing Your Solvent Cleaning System Lowers Your CostTom Tattersall, Vice President, MicroCare CorporationThis presentation will review general design principles of vapor degreasing. It will discuss solvent emission reduction practices, and close with a few case histories where driving down solvent emissions and exposures has saved money.

Wednesday May 5, 2010 10:00 am – 10:50 am

T-1 Ultrasonic and Megasonics Cleaning Dr. Sami Awad, Crest Ultrasonics CorporationCleaning with Ultrasonic or Megasonics involves the use of high-frequency sound waves in the range between 20 kHz and 1 MHz to remove a variety of contaminants from parts immersed in aqueous or solvent media. It is widely used across many industries, ranging from medical devices, automotive, aerospace, weapon cleaning, optics and metal-finishing to hard drives and semiconductors. Recently, combinations of two or more frequencies were developed and used together to optimize performance. Learn when to use ultrasonics and/or megasonics for parts cleaning or precision cleaning.

T-2 Sustainable Cleaning Technologies – Assessing Total Environmental and Safety Impact John G. Owens, Senior Research Specialist, 3M EMMD Fluids LaboratorySeveral of the compounds in the most recent generation of solvents have been designed to address recent environmental and safety issues. A number of the current solvent technologies are safe and environmentally sustainable. Research will show the many advantageous environmental properties. This paper will review the current generation of solvents and their continued role in precision cleaning. Specific focus will be directed to the environmental and safety attributes of these solvents in comparison with alternative technologies.

T-3 green Approach to Machined Metal Parts Cleaning and Deburring and Investment Casting De-Coring Steve Laski, Cleaning Product/Tech Manager, KMT Robotic SolutionsTraditional technologies for machined metal part washing and deburring and investment cast part de-coring have large environmental impact footprints and often don’t result in the level of cleanliness desired, are not robust by nature, and are inherently inconsistent and unrepeatable. This presentation will offer a solu-tion to automate cleaning, deburring and de-coring processes that utilize much lower volumes of water to remove unwanted materials from parts at a much higher efficiency, with higher levels of cleanliness, with higher reliability and with less discharge waste.
