Taiwan’s water pollution control regulations focus on command and control of end-of-pipe treatment from the first day of the Law being passed. But pollution prevention or source reduction has been a worldwide trend since 1990. In order to provide suggestions for future amendment of Water Pollution Control Act of Taiwan, the following subtopics are included in this project:
1.Promote pollution prevention program
2.Induce environmental management system and include economic incentive in pollution prevention program
3.Promote voluntary pollution reduction program
4.Revise existing permit system, performance report system, and site investigation system
5.Establish guidelines of performance evaluation for wastewater treatment plant
6.Promote total maximum daily load program,
7.Control total toxic organics in industrial wastewater discharge.
The goal of this project is to elevate the efficiency of site investigation and administration work of local environmental protection bureaus through the pollution prevention program. To achieve this goal, a comprehensive review of pollution prevention programs in U.S., EU, and other Asian countries is accomplished in this report.
In the first year of this three years project, we review and evaluate the existing environmental management system, propose a framework for future pollution prevention program, and apply the proposed pollution prevention system on 50 factories of 12 service industries. The accomplished works of this project and the suggestions provided to EPA for future regulation revision are summarized as following:
1.Professional engineer association and local environmental protection bureau are in charge of approval and issue of discharge permits application.
2.Improve the existing site investigation system and performance track reporting system for industrial wastewater treatment plants.
3.Established performance evaluation guidelines for wastewater treatment plant of service industries.
4.Applied pollution prevention model to 12 different service ind
