Technology transfer for the development of a catastre of contaminated sites in Vietnam (CapaViet)

Since September 2017 until August 2019, UfU carries out a project to improve the management of polluted sites in Vietnam. The cooperative project “CapaViet – Capacity and infrastructure development for the establishment of a soil contamination catastre in Vietnam by the example of Bắc Ninh Provincewants to strengthen Vietnamese authorities at the provincial level in the independent registration and assessment of contaminated sites.

Together with MSP Bochum and the regional environmental agency (DONRE), a catastre of contaminated sites will be developed in Bắc Ninh Province. Potentially polluted locations will be recorded in a data bank and in GIS by German and Vietnamese experts. Like this, the involved employees of DONRE Bắc Ninh will learn in practice the necessary know-how for the development of a catastre. As flagship project, the catastre for Bắc Ninh can serve as a transferable example for other provinces in Vietnam.

Professional training courses in catastre development and in the use of mobile analytical methods for the assessment of heavy metals in soils will support the employees of Vietnamese authorities at the provincial and national level.

To support the autonomous development of soil contamination catastres, experts in Vietnam will be provided with technical tools for the mobile analysis of heavy metals and catastre development, which will be drafted and disseminated during the project. For making the development of catastres of contaminated sites a standard in Vietnam, UfU will develop a draft for a legal regulation defining the registration of soil contaminations.

As follow-up project of AnaViet, CapaViet is financed by „Exportinitiative Umwelttechnologien“ of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety“.
