Expert has spent the majority of his career with a specialty chemical company that formulates products primarily for metal cleaning, industrial water treatment, odor control and detergents. He is particularly familiar with both solid and liquid operations that include mixing, reactors, and material handling (pumps, pipes, valves, and conveyor belts). Expert has done a great deal of work with all types of surfactant systems, such as biodegradable anionics, cationics and non-ionics. He has used these surfactants in both water-based and solvent-based cleaning formulations.

Expert has done extensive work in the development of water-based, and especially, solvent-based cleaning products for the screen printing industry. The technology he has developed does not include the use of petroleum distillates or any other conventional solvents. The products are biodegradable, have a lower level of volatile organic compounds (V.O.C.), higher flash points, and are not considered hazardous material by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

He maintains familiarity with DOT, EPA, and OSHA regulations on both the state and federal levels.
