Development of cleaner production strategies for the Kyrgyz Republic Pathum Thani, Thailand : Asian Institute of Technology, 2004 86 leaves : ill. Thesis ; no. EV-04-01 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering, School of Environment, Resources and Development Thesis (M.Eng.) - Asian Institute of Technology, 2004 Cleaner production is essentially aimed at increasing production efficiency, while at the same time eliminating or minimizing wastes and emissions at their source, rather than treating them after they have been generated. The concept is especially important to developing countries, where natural resources are scarce, and the pace of environmental degradation is continuously increasing. Since, Cleaner Production started to implement in Kyrgyzstan , this research attempts to examine the current industrial practices that have been and are being used in the Kyrgyz Republic, and current national institutional capacity to implement of Cleaner Production in Kyrgyzstan. Transition of Kyrgyz economy from planned economy toward market-based economy has had impact on Kyrgyz industries. Many of industries are relaying on 'end-of-pipe' solutions in solving environmental problems, management of industries is not committed to implement CP options at enterprises. The research also addresses the possibility of funding from Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs) for cleaner production projects in Kyrgyzstan, and the challenges faced in that regard. Most of the studied MEAs have relevant provisions to Cleaner Production in their objectives and implementing mechanisms. Moreover, they have mutual benefits: MEAs could be funding sources for implementation Cleaner Production projects; Cleaner Production could be an effective instrument in global environmental protection efforts and improve the effectiveness of MEAs. The strategies the industry has to take to achieving cleaner production goals are proposed, as well as the different policy instruments that the Kyrgyz government should implement to encourage cleaner production implementation.
