Cleaner Production. EE

Cleaner production is a preventative strategy to reduce environmental impact and risks to human health and the environment. It focuses on conserving resources and avoiding end-of-pipe treatments by rethinking products, processes, and services. Some benefits include reduced costs from less raw materials and waste disposal, while also improving health, safety, and environmental protection. However, obstacles exist like needing trained personnel and funding environmental projects, as well as overcoming attitudes. Opportunities are identified through assessments and analyzing material and energy flows to find wasteful processes and implement cleaner production techniques.

What is cleaner production?
The United Nations Environment Program defines cleaner
production as “the continuous application of an integrated,
preventative environmental strategy to processes, products and
services to increase eco-efficiency and reduce risks to humans and
the environment”

Risk reduction

It’s a rethinking for products, processes and


services to move towards sustainable
Cleaner production development.
Purpose of cleaner production

Cleaner production focuses on conservation of natural resources such as


water, energy and raw materials and avoids the end-of-pipe treatment.
