INTRODUCTION
IMPLEMENTATION OF EMAS IN A FISH PROCESSING INDUSTRY
WHAT IS EMAS?
EMAS means EcoManagement and Audit Scheme
EMAS is an environmental management scheme for
organizations operating in the European Union and
European Economic Area
EMAS aims to promote continuous evaluation and improvement in the
environmental performance of participating organizations
EMAS brings together environmental protection
and economic development
+
EMAS does not replace Community or national environmental legislation

INTRODUCTION
IMPLEMENTATION OF EMAS IN A FISH PROCESSING INDUSTRY
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN EMAS AND ISO 14001
EMAS REQUIRES A PRELIMINARY ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
EMAS REQUIRES A GREATER CONTROL OVER SUPPLIERS AND
CONTRACTORS
EMAS ESTABLISHES THE AUDITS’ FREQUENCY AND METHODOLOGY
EMAS DEMANDS COMPANIES TO PUBLISH AN ENVIRONMENTAL
STATEMENT
EMAS PROVIDES FOR A CERTIFICATION SYSTEM WITH INDEPENDENT
ENVIRONMENTAL VERIFIERS AND REGISTRATION BODIES

ADVANTAGES OF AN ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
COST REDUCTION:
Improved operational efficiency (lower consumption of energy and raw materials)
RISK REDUCTION:
Reduced likelihood of serious and costly accidents
COMPETITIVE BENEFITS:
Improvement of the company’s image with consumers, regulatory authorities and
general public
ACTIVE ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE:
Advantageous for other purposes (for instance, implementation of quality
management systems)

IMPLEMENTATION OF CLEANER PRODUCTION (CP)
THERE ARE IMPORTANT CLEANER PRODUCTION OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE FISH
PROCESSING INDUSTRY THAT ONLY REQUIRE MINOR CHANGES IN THE PROCESS:
 TRAIN STAFF IN GOOD CLEANING PRACTICES
 REGULAR MAINTENANCE TO AVOID INEFFICIENCIES
 KEEP WORK AREAS TIDY AND UNCLUTTERED TO AVOID ACCIDENTS
 INSTALL DRIP PANS OR TRAYS TO COLLECT DRIPS AND SPILLS
 SEGREGATE WASTE FOR REUSE AND RECYCLING
 IDENTIFY AND MARK ALL VALVES TO PREVENT ANY INCORRECT SETTING

SIMPLE WAYS TO SAVE WATER:
USE OFFAL TRANSPORT SYSTEMS THAT AVOID OR MINIMISE THE USE OF
WATER
INSTALL DEVICES THAT CONTROL WATER FLOW FOR MANUAL CLEANING
USE HIGH PRESSURE WATER TO CLEAN SURFACES
PRE-SOAK FLOORS AND EQUIPMENT TO LOOSEN DIRT BEFORE THE FINAL
CLEANING
REUSE WASTEWATERS (EX.: THAWING WASTEWATERS FOR INITIAL
CLEANING STEPS)

THERE ARE ALSO SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE WAYS TO REDUCE THE EFFLUENT
LOADS:
SWEEP UP SOLID WASTE FOR USE AS A BY-PRODUCT
COLLECT OFFAL AND BLOOD IN A SPECIAL BIN
CLEAN FISH WITH VACUUM HOSES
USE DRY CLEANING TECHNIQUES (EX.: SCRAPING FLOOR BEFORE
CLEANING)

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION IS THE MAIN KEY TO THE COMPANY’S DEVELOPMENT
THE COMPANY’S PREMISES MUST ADOPT WASTE MANAGEMENT POLICIES
ALL WORKING STAFF MUST ACCOMPLISH THE FOLLOWING:
RESPECT THE ENVIRONMENT
FOLLOW ALL APPLICABLE LEGISLATION
SEARCH PERMANENTLY FOR INDUSTRIAL OPTIMIZATION
REDUCE RAW MATERIALS AND ENERGY CONSUMPTION
REGISTER AND INVESTIGATE ALL ACCIDENTS AND COMPLAINTS
ADEQUATE TRAINING FOR ALL WORKERS AND PEOPLE INVOLVED
GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH ALL NEIGHBOURS
COOPERATE WITH ORGANIZATIONS COMMITED TO A HIGHER ENVIRONMENTAL

EXAMINATION OF THE EMAS IMPLEMENTATION)
AS XPTO AND CCC FULLY COMPLIED WITH ALL EMAS REQUIREMENTS:
VALIDATION WAS CONFERRED BY THE ENVIRONMENTAL VERIFIER
XPTO AND CCC REQUESTED REGISTRATION UNDER EMAS
SUBMISSION TO THE COMPETENT ORGANISM (INSTITUTO DO AMBIENTE) OF THE VALIDATED ENVIRONMENTAL
