In this episode of our Sustainability in Action podcast series, we spotlight the Advanced Materials team — third place winners of the Huntsman Corporation's 2024 CEO Award for Manufacturing Excellence — for their innovative project, "From Waste to Workhorse—Repurposing of RLP Dimer." Two of the team members from the Akron facility share how they transformed a costly and wasteful process into a smart, sustainable solution. For years, the site managed Reactive Liquid Polymer (RLP) Dimer by treating it as hazardous waste, which involved expensive offsite disposal. But through collaboration and innovation, they found a way to repurpose the material for use in oil and gas exploration—turning a liability into an asset. Listen in as they discuss how a new partnership, process improvements, and smarter logistics led to major cost savings and environmental benefits. By reducing emissions and creating a new revenue stream, this project highlights how teamwork and creative thinking can drive both operational efficiency and sustainability.
