Abstract
Environmental protection for a sustainable development represents a vital
issue of every country in the world. Vietnam is developing its economy,
focusing on a high-speed industrialization, especially in industry, agriculture,
services and urbanization. The higher growth of economy the more problems
to be solved in environmental protection, especially the quantity of wastes
discharged from production and people's life is increasingly growing, aggravating
pollution and putting a stronger pressure on environment and ecology. Wastes
include solid, liquid and gaseous ones. Seeking appropriate technologies
for treating wastes and protecting environment is a urgent task in Vietnam
at present. Since April 1997, EM technology has been applied in different
domains: cropping, animal husbandry, environment treatment such as for
treating dumps, processing garbage into fertilizers, treating the liquids
secreted from garbage, treating the waste water discharged from urban areas
in over 60% of cities and provinces of the country. Some study results
have been presented in this report to show that EM technology applied in
environmental treatment in Vietnam is very effective; EM technology has
been proved to be safe, low-cost, effective and easy utilization in environmental
protection.
