Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a group of synthetic organic chemicals that were widely used in electrical and industrial applications for decades. Commonly found in transformers, capacitors, heat transfer systems, rail cars, and certain coatings, PCBs were valued for their stability, low flammability, and ability to effectively insulate and maintain electrical currents. While these properties made..
While both demolition and deconstruction can achieve high material recovery rates, often reclaiming up to 90% of materials, the primary difference lies in the methods used to remove those materials. Deconstruction is a labor-intensive process that focuses on carefully dismantling a structure by hand. Building components are removed piece by piece to preserve materials for..
Michigan’s energy landscape is undergoing significant change. According to the Michigan Public Service Commission’s (MPSC) Winter Energy Appraisal for 2025–2026, demand for both electricity and natural gas is expected to rise, adding pressure to infrastructure, pricing, and long-term planning across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. Growing Demand, Adequate Supply The MPSC projects electricity demand to..
