A precision injection system during manufacture that ensures consistent and accurate introduction of lower mercury doses. The lamp-making process is efficient and lamp applications are recommended so as to save energy and consequently reduce greenhouse gas and other emissions from power plants. Lamps containing mercury placed in trash that is incinerated may result in the entire mercury content becoming an immediate airborne release. It is always the end user's responsibility, as generator of the waste stream, to ensure that lamps are disposed of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. Moreover, some states and localities have lower limits than the EPA's TCLP standard and have different statutes and disposal regulations regarding mercury-containing lamps.
