| dc.description | The partnership area promotes reporting and information sharing on mercury use and release
reductions in the sector, and on the extent of conversions to non-mercury technologies. Conversions in the
United States and Europe are continuing to take place, as is the implementation of India’s voluntary program of
mercury cell plant closings and conversions. Over the first years of the chlor-alkali partnership effort, the
emphasis has been on: (1) sharing regional data on the status of chlor-alkali mercury cell plants, including the
pace of conversion; (2) providing technical assistance, often industry-to-industry, on reducing the demand for
mercury at existing plants. | |
