dc.descriptionThis report presents a mercury substitution priority working list intended to support global discussions on mercury management. It identifies intentional mercury uses, assesses the availability of alternatives, proposes priorities and transition periods for substitution, and examines technical, institutional, social and economic challenges. The assessment incorporates background information and expert evaluations from several countries to develop a consolidated prioritisation of mercury uses.
