technical cooperation |
Research cooperation on pollution by
volatile organic compounds in Thailand |
Thai industrial estated suffer from land pollution due
to volatile organic compounds, so JEMAI engaged in research cooperation, invited
trainees, and conducted local seminars on methods of control of these substances,
techniques of monitoring the state of pollution (sampling techniques, analytical
techniques, etc.), techniques of cleanup of pollution, etc. |
| Support of project on technology for
disposal of industrial waste in Brazil |
JEMAI supported to improve the technology
for management and incineration of industrial waste in Brazil and transferred
to Brazilian engineers the technology for analysis of industrial waste and disposal
using incinerators. |
| Support of project on technology for
disposal of waste gas in Chinese petro-chemical industry |
JEMAI supported to improve the facilities
for disposal of waste gas in the petrochemical industry in China and transferred
technology for disposal of waste gas to Chinese engineers. |
| Survey on plans for measures against
air pollution in Macedonia |
JEMAI prepared plans for monitoring
air pollution in Macedonia, developing models of simulation of dispersion of pollution,
etc. |
| Dispatch of
experts |
System of registration of international
environment advisors (environ-mental protection experts) |
JEMAI recorded in a data base manpower
in a broad range of fields relating to environmental issues so as to meet the

Trade Organization (JETRO), and other international organizations, overseas research
institutes, and related organizations, distributes the materials to related parties
as necessary, and engages in exchanges with numerous overseas visitors. Further,
it serves as the domestic secretariat of the JUAPPA (Japanese Union of Air Pollution
Prevention Associations), the Japanese member of the IUAPPA, and facilitates participation
in the World Clean Air Conference, Regional Clean Air Conference, etc.
b) Information on System of Registration of International
Environmental Advisors
Along with the rising awareness of global environmental
problems, the transfer of environmental protection technology to the developing
countries is becoming increasingly important. Finding expert engineers for each
field of technology is becoming urgent for ensuring the smooth transfer of the
technology.
In the past, when receiving requests for technical cooperation
such as the dispatch of experts and hosting of trainees, JEMAI has inquired about
engineers suitable for the individual projects from its member companies and organizations.
In the future, however, on behalf of the Ministry of International Trade and Industry,
JEMAI is registering pollution control managers etc. making large contributions
to the solution of energy and environmental problems in Japan who further have
certain knowledge and experience relating to the state of energy and the environment
in the developing countries as "international environmental advisors"
so as to be able to more swiftly meet the growing number of requests.
Further, to make this project more efficient, JEMAI conducts
seminars, including on-site inspections, designed to train persons to conduct
environmental impact surveys and assessments and plan measures for controlling
pollution and thereby facilitate technical cooperation.
This data bank is being used by the Japan International Cooperation Agency, the
Japan External Trade Organization, the Japan Overseas Development Corporation,
and other organizations for selecting and recommending engineers suitable for
specific fields of technical cooperation. The terms under which these engineers
are dispatched overseas are decided on directly between the experts selected as
candidates and the government agency or organization supervising the project.
JEMAI asks that engineers with a broad range of knowledge and sufficient experience
agree with the aims of the system of registration of "and international environmental
advisors" and register with it. (320 registrants as of end of FY1997)
