After 18 months of work, the Project “Environmentally Sound Management and Disposal of Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) in Peru” was completed.
Within the framework of the Project, a total of 263 PCB contaminated transformers (156 tons) belonging to 17 companies was managed in Peru.
The main objective of the Workshop was the exchange of information on PCB management through a life cycle management approach, from inventories to environmental management (MEDE) of PCBs, in accordance with The Stockholm Convention on Persistent organic pollutants. The event was structured in three main themes.
The purpose of the PILOT PROJECT is to “Implement and start a pilot or semi-industrial scale PCB treatment project by means of dechlorination processes, catalytic oxidation or other physical-chemical treatment.
Within the framework of the National Program of the Ministry of Environment of Morocco, UNDP, UNIDO and GEF, TREDI SA, a subsidiary of the Séché Group, installed a treatment and rehabilitation platform for PCB contaminated transformers and oil.
