The UN defines clean production as the continuous application of an integrated preventive environmental strategy applied to processes, products, and services to increase overall efficiency and reduce risks to humans and the environment. Clean production technologies create products with less environmental impact and focus on the reduction of the use of natural resources. In this project, technologies that aim at reducing the creation of waste, or the use of water and raw materials have been taken into account.
