“…After the Act on the Integrated Management of Environmental Pollution Facilities came into force in 2017, 10 environmental permits related to air, water quality, and waste under 7 statutes were combined into an integrated environmental permit system [10]. The seven statutes are the Clean Air Conservation Act, Noise and Vibration Control Act, Water Environment Conservation Act, Malodor Prevention Act, Persistent Organic Pollutant Control Act, Soil Environment Conservation Act, and Waste Management Act [11]. Having started with the electricity generation, steam, and waste treatment industries in 2017, the integrated system was applied to 19 industries (1411 worksites) by 2021.…”

“…As a representative example, pollutant emission facilities in the European Union (EU) have been managed using an integrated management method since the late 1990s through Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (IPPC) and the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) [9,10]. Following this international trend, preparations for promoting IEM have been made in Korea since 2013 [11]. However, IEM personnel in workplaces, consulting institutions, governments, and permitting institutions is lacking.…”

Integrated environmental management (IEM) is an effective approach that comprehensively reviews the impact of pollutants emitted from a facility on the surrounding environment and minimizes pollution emissions through optimal, economically feasible means. The IEM system in Korea, as derived from countries in the European Union and other advanced countries, has been in force since 2017. This study presents the primary components and features of the IEM system in Korea. IEM specialized education is aimed at introducing expertise in the field and equipping learners with various skills upon completion, including in-depth research skills, to meet Korea’s stringent requirements. Regular performance checks and surveys of program participants are conducted to confirm objective results. Based on these data, the program is improved according to expert opinions and contributes numerous engineering inputs for environmentally sustainable management. The education system can be used to develop and apply processes for training system operation personnel in many countries interested in adapting IEM, as well as in Europe, which already utilizes an IEM system.
