Every organisation has a duty to implement procedures to identify, assess and monitor the influence of its own activities (products, services, etc.) on the environment. Procedures for identifying the extent of the impact on the environment must consider the following factors:
- Disposal of liquids.
- Waste management.
- Soil contamination.
- Atmospheric emissions.
- Use of raw materials and natural resources.
- Regulations and directives regarding environmental impact.
In order to minimise the impact on the environment, KOHLER provides some indications to be followed by all those handling the engine, for any reason, during its expected lifetime.
- All components and fluids must be disposed of in accordance with the laws of the country in which disposal is taking place.
- Keep the injection system as well as engine management and exhaust pipes in efficient working order to limit environmental and noise pollution.
- When decommissioning the engine, select all components according to their chemical characteristics and dispose of them separately.
