“Clean Up Georgia-Phase III” Project



Training in Management of Chemical Substances and Materials



On 15-22 December 2016, NGO “Ecological Awareness and Waste Management”
conducted a training for the laboratory staff of scientific and research
firm “Gama” on the management of obsolete, overdue and outdated chemical
substances and materials. The training, conducted within the framework of
the “Clean Up Georgia – Phase III” Project, was held in the “Gama” Office.



The training was attended by the staff of scientific and research firm
"Gama", St. Andrew Georgian University, Georgian Technical University, and a
group of undergraduate and graduate students.



The aim of the training was to introduce the trainees to the modern methods
of handling abandoned chlorine containers and cylinders, as well as
identification, recording, storage, use, partial utilization on the site,
transportation and final disposal of chemical substances and materials kept
in educational institutions in inadequate conditions.



Special attention was paid to the strengthening of the skills for
identification of substances of unknown composition and safe utilization on
the site. The training was delivered by project coordinators. They were
supported by the leading specialists from scientific and research firm
"Gamma" and the St. Andrew Georgian University.



The project “Clean Up Georgia-Phase III” is implemented by a Consortium of
NGOs “Ecological Awareness and Waste Management”, Georgian Society of Nature
Explorers “Orchis” and “Greens Movement of Georgia/Friends of the
Earth -Georgia” with the full financial support of the Swedish Government.
