Amount
of Chemicals Released and Transferred Based on a Sharp International
Standard in Fiscal 2004
Sharp has created a list of 204 chemicals*
whose handling and transfer is to be controlled. These chemicals
include PRTR substances that are recognized in all countries,
greenhouse gases, ozone layer depleting substances, and substances
covered under our company's “Green Purchasing Guidelines.”
The tables below show the calculations for substances of which
at least 250 kg was handled per Sharp Group business site
in fiscal 2004.
*Chemicals (number
of substances):Specified bromine-based flame retardants (2),
CFCs (15), halons (37), HCFCs (37), HFCs (13), PFCs (7), PCBs
(3), agichemicals (3), chlorine-basedorganic solvents (20),
chlorobenzenes (3), ester phthalates (4), aromatic organic solvents
(14), other organic solvents (27), heavy metals (12), other
non-organic compounds (7) |
