Prevention Award for three projects: The Hydraulics and Hydraulic Systems business
unit in Joliet implemented a flame sprayed coating for its truck suspension system,
replacing a chroming process, reducing hazardous waste by 700,000 pounds annually
and saving 14 million US gallons (53,000 m3) of water. Caterpillar's Cast Metals
Organization in Mapleton worked with the American Foundry Society to help produce a
rule to reduce hazardous waste in scrap metal that meet strict quality requirements, and
also allow foundries to continue recycling certain types of scrap and maintain a
competitive cost structure. Caterpillar's Mossville Engine Center formed a team to look
at used oil reuse and recycle processes that forced MEC to send large amounts of used
oil off-site for recycling, and developed an updated system for reclaiming it for reuse on-
site. The resulting benefits included a usage reduction of about 208,000 US gallons
(790 m3) of oil per year.
