Abstract
As ratification of the Stockholm Convention to eliminate or reduce the release of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) into the environment draws near, the Government and industries are actively developing appropriate management and control measures. However, considerable work is needed in order to clarify vast uncertainties imposed in management and control of POPs while handling POPs is extremely difficult because of their toxicity and low levels in the environment. In this note, some major factors to be considered for effective management and control of POPs are reviewed on the basis of recent findings.
