J+J/Invision has
partnered with Styron to produce latex backing created
with LOMAX™ Technology - an innovative solution that
uses landfill gas as renewable energy. LOMAX™ Technology
collects landfill gas from the Dalton, GA landfill
through a system of pipes and blowers. This captured
landfill gas fuels the Emulsion Polymers plant by
replacing >90 percent of their natural gas consumption
to manufacture latex used in carpet backing. With this
technology Styron is eliminating the use
of approximately 240 billion Btu of fossil fuels or
enough electricity used to heat 2,100 homes each year in
the United States. They are also able to reduce oil
consumption by more then 200,000 barrels per year.
