Introduction of BAT and BEP methodology to demonstrate reduction or elimination of unintentionally produced POPs releases from the industry in Vietnam

The overall objective of the proposed MSP will be to assist Vietnam to plan and strategise with regards to compliance with its obligations under Art. 5 of the Stockholm Convention on POPs concerning the reduction of releases of un-intentional POPs from the industrial sector and other processes. Specific objectives are to: - Prepare BAT and BEP options to demonstrate reduction and elimination of unintentional production of POPs in the industry recognized by the preliminary inventory conducted within the POPs EA process for Vietnam as key sources of unintentional production of POPs chemicals. - Prepare estimates of the likely range of incremental costs of implementing BAT and BEP options at enterprise and sector level as contributions to action planning and strategy development to reduce releases and eliminate sources of unintentional production of POPs chemicals.
