Baltic pilot cases on reduction of emissions by substitution of hazardous chemicals and resource efficiency (LIFE Fit for REACH)
Start date: Oct 1, 2015, End date: Mar 31, 2020,
Background
Some harmful chemical substances produced by industrial activities remain in the environment for a very long time once released. There, they can accumulate via the food chain and, if toxic, exert harmful effects on living organisms. These so-called persistent bio-accumulative toxic (PBT) substances can also be transported long distances from th ...

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
Background
Harmful industrial chemicals can remain in the environment for very long periods of time, enabling them to accumulate via food chains and, if toxic, exert harmful effects on living organisms. These so-called persistent bio-accumulative toxic (PBT) substances can also be transported long distances from their original emission source, causing sig ...

Baltic actions for reduction of pollution of the Baltic Sea from priority hazardous substances (BaltActHaz)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2012,
Background
Chemicals released into the environment can remain in the environment for very long time due to their persistence. If they are also bio-accumulative, they accumulate in the food chain. If toxic, they can harm living organisms. Emissions into the acquatic environment of certain target substances is subject to regulation, and limiting or stopping ...
