- Initiative summary:
- Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are chemical substances that have a prolonged existence in the environment, gradually accumulate in organisms through the various food chains, and pose a risk to human health and the environment. Waste containing POPs is of special concern. To ensure that such waste is managed in an environmentally sound way and allows safer recycling, this initiative will review of the concentration limit values of POPs in waste.
