Rivertop Renewables reports that its sodium glucarate produced by the company’s breakthrough oxidation technology has been listed on the US Environmental Protection Agency’s Safer Chemicals Ingredients List (SCIL). Chemicals on the SCIL have been certified by the EPA as safer than traditional chemical ingredients, helping formulators secure the Safer Choice label for end products sold to industry and consumers. Rivertop’s product is the first chemical with corrosion inhibiting properties to secure full approval for the SCIL, it contends.
“Rivertop is honored and energized that our corrosion inhibitor is the first to qualify for EPA’s safer chemicals list. This is a win for Rivertop and end-product developers that are facing increasing demands to meet environmental and health standards without sacrificing performance or economics,” said Mike Knauf, chief executive officer of Rivertop Renewables. “From the beginning, we’ve set out to develop a set of novel chemicals and products based on simple plant sugars that are safe for the environment and human health. Securing the EPA’s stamp of approval confirms that with Rivertop’s sodium glucarate there is no need to compromise environmental performance for product performance or cost.”
