TradeMark Nitrogen’s Commitments to Sustainability:
- Monitoring and Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions:: Emissions:Â TradeMark Nitrogen is committed to minimizing the emissions of Greenhouse Gases (GHG) from our operations. We maintain the operations of our facility to meet all EPA and FL DEP emission requirements.
- Protecting Natural Water Resources: TradeMark Nitrogen is committed to reducing water consumption and waste by monitoring our well water usage, reusing cooling water, repurposing rainwater for production, and capturing steam condensate to reduce boiler make-up. TradeMark also maintains a hyacinth-lined pond system within the facility to minimize nutrient runoff and monitors the discharge water at our outfall to ensure it meets required nutrient levels.
- Eliminating Waste: TradeMark Nitrogen is committed to minimizing our impact on total energy consumption by reusing heat from our Nitric Acid Plant to generate steam and assist in driving the compressor, reducing overall power requirements. We also minimize waste by repurposing byproducts from the process and avoiding material disposal in landfills.
- Community Outreach: TradeMark Nitrogen is dedicated to supporting local communities by funding FFAA scholarships for students pursuing agricultural studies. Additionally, we collaborate with the University of Central Florida (UCF) to support graduate student programs.
