Pollutants according to regulations of Stockholm Convention
The Stockholm Convention
on POPs (hereinafter referred to as the “Stockholm Convention”) is concluded
and approved in order to protect human health, biodiversity and the living
environment from the risks of persistent organic pollutants (hereinafter
referred to as “POPs”). The Stockholm Convention takes effect in 2004. This
provides for the stop of production, prohibition and restriction of use,
complete destruction of a number of POPs generated by human and implementation
of necessary measures to continuously minimize unintentinal POPs from
industrial production, livelihood of the people or waste treatment.
According to the
requirements of the Stockholm Convention dated August 10, 2006, the Prime
Minister has approved the national Plan for implementation of the Stockholm
Convention on POPs in Decision No. 184/2006/QD-TTg. In particular, the Prime
Minister has focused on management of 12 groups of POPs. From 2009 to present,
the Conference of Parties (COP) has added 14 new groups of POPs to Appendices
A, B and C of the Convention, risen the quantity of POP groups subject to
management to 28 groups, including plant protection chemicals and medical
chemicals (hereinafter referred to as “POP-BVTV”); industrial chemicals and
unintentinal POPs (hereinafter referred to as “UPOP”). The list of POPs shall
be provided according to the Stockholm Convention in Appendix 1 issued together
with this Decision.
According to the
requirements for environmental protection, protection of health, the result of
comprehensive assessment of economic and social impacts and the capacity for
replacement for POPs, the list of POPs will be continuously added to the
Stockholm Convention.
