1. Technologically Feasible/ Cost Effective
2. Achieved in Practice
TYPICAL TECHNOLOGY
POC 1.  Use of "no clean" fluxes that do not require finger cleaning after soldering, enclosure of all wave solder operations, minimization of extrance/exit areas, and vent to control system w/ overall capture/ destruction efficiency  >90%a
2.  Use of "no clean" fluxes that do not require finger cleaning after soldering, covering of flux bath when applicator is not in operation, and minimization of entrance/exit areas.
