Flame spray information needed

My employer is thinking about offering Aluminum Flame Spray as one of our operations. Since I handle the environmental side of things, I'm looking for as much information as possible about the procedure. As this is only in the discussion stage, I don't have all the incidentals. Still, would one of you please be so kind as to point me to either a good web site or perhaps a book that could answer some of my questions? For instance, the regulatory limits, how possibly to classify the waste, safety issues connected to this process, etc. I appreciate any and all help. Thanks.

I've worked with thermo coating , BOC Edwards Kachina and Pentagon in the last 6 years. They all offer aluminum flamespray. Are you still thinking of getting into flamespray or have you already gotten it?
