The Pilot Study on Clean Products and Processes was launched in March 1998 in the framework of the former NATO Committee on the Challenges of Modern Society (CCMS), under the leadership of Dr. Subhas K. Sikdar and Mr. Daniel Murray, National Risk Management Research Laboratory, United States Environmental Protection Agency. The proposed objective of the Pilot Study was to facilitate further gains in understanding of pollution prevention, waste minimization, design for the environment, and sustainability among delegates from participating countries. It was anticipated that the free exchange of knowledge, experience, data, and models would foster innovations, collaborations, and technology transfer on improving the environment worldwide.
