This software program was developed for EPA by PEER consultants and the University of Dayton Research Institute. SWAMI uses process analysis to identify pollution prevention opportunities within an industrial setting. Users need to supply process information, including material inputs and products for each unit operation and outputs associated with waste streams. SWAMI then identifies and prioritizes P2 opportunities on a cost and volume basis. It also performs mass balance calculations and draws process flow diagrams. The software is based on standard systems analysis concepts in which the entire process is looked upon as a system of interacting unit operations or components.
This program is to be used in conjunction with EPA's "Facility Pollution Prevention Guide".
