Overall objectives: The aim of the Project is to achieve step-reductions in the generation of industrial waste and by-products, including organic materials, as well as to foster their valorization:

  • Improving the local environment (less waste and waste water);
  • Mitigation of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (reduced energy consumption and reduced methane generation from waste); and
  • Economic benefits (resource productivity and possibly better product quality).
  • Sector review;
  • Companies pre-selection;
  • The RECP quick scan: 10 companies/sector;
  • Provide two 03-day training courses to rice and coffee sectors on RECP assessment follow UNIDO methodology;
  • The full RECP assessment: 04 companies/sector; and
