I. ODS Country/Sector Background And Status

ODS Consumption

1.01 As a Party to the Vienna Convention and Montreal Protocol (MP)', Tunisia is committed to thephaseout of ozone depleting substances (ODS) by the year 2006. Ninety-seven percent of ODSconsumption in Tunisia is in the form of Chlorofluorocarbon-1 1 (CFC-1 1) and CFC 12 which are used inthe refrigeration, foam and aerosol industries (a list of substances controlled by the Montreal Protocol andtheir Tunisian consumption profile and the Tunisian ODS consumption are depicted graphically in Tables 1and 2 respectively). There is no local production of CFCs in Tunisia; all CFCs are imported from Greece,Italy, Germany, France and the United Kingdom. Annual consumption of CFCs increased from 585 tons in1986 to 730 tons in 1990 and was last estimated throughout the sectors in 1991 at 1,045 tons (out of a totalODS2 consumption of 1,073 tons/yr). Of this, 55 percent (585 tons) was consumed as a foam blowing agent;22 percent (230 tons) as a refrigerant; and 22 percent (230 tons) as a propellant for aerosol sprays.Servicing of domestic refrigerators alone accounted for 54 percent of CFC consumption in the refrigerationsector in 1991. A detailed breakdown of national ODS data for 1991 is found in Table 2. NationalConsumption Patterns of ODS by Use and Application.

Government Policy and Actions

1.02 Country Program. Tunisia has prepared a Country Program for the Phaseout of Ozone DepletingSubstances (CP - draft available upon request) with the assistance of the World Bank and in compliancewith requirements for obtaining Multilateral Fund of the Montreal Protocol (MFMP) financing. Therecommended phaseout schedule of the CP is provided in Table 3. The CP is in its final phase of revisionand would be submitted for approval to the next meeting of the Executive Committee of the MultilateralFund (ECMF) in early 1994. The CP recommends policy actions and proposes several projects whichwould ensure full compliance with the Protocol requirements and lead to the phaseout of CFCs by the year2000 (with the exception of servicing refrigerators).

/ The Vienna Convention (1985) is a treaty which provides a framework for international cooperation to save the stratosphericozone layer which shields the earth from ultraviolet radiation. The Montreal Protocol (September 1987) established the frameworkfor implementation of the Vienna Convention. Parties to the Montreal Protocol have agreed to elimninate the production andconsumption of CFC and Halon ozone depleting substances, effective in 1989. The June 1990 London Amendments to the MontrealProtocol established the Interim Multilateral Fund (now the Multilateral Fund) which provides financial assistance to qualifieddeveloping countries, as incentive for early adoption of ozone protection technologies, to cover the incremental costs of meeting theobjectives of the Montreal Protocol.

/ ODS, which are regulated, under the Montreal Protocol, include all CFC-based substances as well as carbon tetrachloride,methylene bromide, halons, etc.

2

1.03 Phaseout Schedule. The CP's main findings3 are that Tunisia could phaseout CFCs at anaccelerated pace which would also decrease the overall phaseout costs to the national economy dueprimarily to the cost savings of replacing CFC refrigerators and other refrigeration/cooling equipment priorto their necessary retirement. The CP, therefore, recommends an accelerated phaseout strategy to take placebetween 1994 and 2000 in which Tunisia would gradually shift to ODS substitutes (or transitionalsubstances) as they become available rather than waiting until 2005 to begin phaseout activities. The CPestimates total incremental costs (at a national level) for this strategy to be approximately US$29 million.

1.04 The financing of incremental costs to developing countries is intended as an incentive for earlyadoption of ODS phaseout activities and programs. An accelerated phaseout scenario would beaccompanied by: a) a series of policy and legislative actions to enable the government to monitor, follow upand enforce the CFC phaseout (a recommended list of regulatory measures and schedule of bans on ODSuse is provided in Annex 2); b) demonstration projects to assist the industries in phasing out CFCs in anorderly and effective manner; and c) subsequent investment projects in the ODS-using industrial sectors.

Governrent Commitment

1.05 Tunisia ratified the Vienna Convention and the Montreal Protocol on 25 September 1989, andratified the 1990 London Amendments in April 1993. In order to fulfill their commitment, Tunisia isseeking funds from the MFMP which provides assistance to developing countries with an annual per capitaODS consumption of less than 0.30 kg. As Tunisia's per capita consumption is only 0.10 kg/capita, and ithas prepared the CP (a requirement of the MFMP), Tunisia is eligible to receive assistance from the MFMPto enable an accelerated phaseout schedule.

Institutional Aspects

1.06 As a first step towards the implementation of its CP, the Government of Tunisia has entrusted tothe Agence Nationale de Protection de l'Environnement (ANPE) the responsibility of coordinating andmonitoring CP activities. The ANPE - established in 1988 by the Prime Minister - is primarily responsiblefor: advising the Government on environmental protection issues and policy, preparing environmental actionplans, monitoring pollutant emissions, approving environmental impact analyses of industrial projects,promoting research, education and information dissemination and finally, coordinating national andinternational environmental programs to ensure that Tunisia fulfills its international obligations. ANPE isorganized into six departments and comprises about forty professional staff. These are: the GeneralDirectorate; Administration and Finance; the State of Environment and Public Awareness; Pollution control;Large Scale Projects; Legal and Dispute. The head of the department of pollution control has beennominated as the Director of this project. ANPE formerly reported directly to the Prime Minister; it nowreports to the Ministry of the Environment whichwas established in October 1991.

1.07 After signing the MP, ANPE established a National Ozone Committee (NOC) which is responsiblefor: (a) proposing regulatory measures necessary for the effective national phaseout of ODS; (b) providingguidance towards the implementation of the Country Program's Action Plan; and (c) serving as a link to thelegislative body in Tunisia. The NOC is composed of fifteen members representing ministries, industries,academic institutions and non-governmental organizations.

3/ The Country Program was prepared in 1992. It is based, on an allowable phaseout schedule for developing countries to the year2010. The CP is presently being circulated by ANPE within the concerned ministry and industries for their comments.

II. Rationale For Bank Involvement

Bank Strategy

2.01 The Bank's role as an implementing agency for the Multilateral Fund of the Montreal Protocol4 isto cooperate and assist in administering and managing a program to finance incremental costs of ODSphaseout activities, enabling Article 5 countries to comply with the Protocol's control measures.Furthermore, the Bank is beginning to play a larger role in the protection of the global environment byintegrating global environmental concerns into its environmental strategy.

Government Strategy

2.02 The bulk of ODS phaseout activities in Tunisia is expected to span over six years. At theGovernment's request, the Bank provided assistance in the preparation of the CP (para. 1.02) and in securingMFMP financing for the implementation of the ODS phaseout. The Government has already established aNational Ozone Committee, identified personnel within ANPE to be responsible for following up on MPactivities and started public awareness campaigns. In the private sector, several of the large aerosolindustries have already begun phasing out CFCs by converting to liquified petroleum gas (LPG) orcompressed CO2. The first phase of the CP (this project) would be to initiate the process of establishing theinstitutional and legal framework for phasing out CFCs and, to demonstrate to the private and public sectors,using a series of activities, the introduction of non-ODS substitutes in the refrigeration, foam and aerosolindustries. During the course of the project and after establishing the institutional and legal framework, theGovernment of Tunisia would submit to the MFMP the second phase of the CP consisting of investmentprojects to assist the private sector to modify production processes using ODS-free technology in therefrigeration and foam sectors. Assurances were obtained during Negotiations that the Recipient shallfinalize and submit the Country Program to the ECMF not later than December 31, 1994. This requirementis also documented in the legal agreement.

2.03 With respect to the Government's overall environmental strategy for the country, the Governmenthas also requested the Bank's assistance in updating the Environmental Action Plan (EAP) which the GOTdeveloped in 1990. As part of the update, the recommendations of the CP would be incorporated into therevised EAP.

Rationale for Montreal Protocol Financing

2.04 The grant will provide a financial incentive to the participating industries to phaseout their use ofODSs, many of which had adopted a "wait and see" posture until the government applies the appropriateregulations. The introduction of appropriate alternative technologies will allow for the accelerated phaseoutscenario enabled by MFMP financing. Finally, the proposed project meets the applicable project eligibilitycriteria for MFMP financing as demonstrated by the allocation of funding (US$1.79 million) for the sixproject components in the June and October 1992 MFMP meetings.

4/ Other implementing agencies include UNDP, UNEP and UNIDO.

III. The Project

Project Objectives

3.01 The project's objectives are to: a) establish the institutional and regulatory framework fordecreasing ODS uses; and b) introduce ODS-free technologies to the refrigeration, foam and aerosolindustries as a first demonstration phase in completing an early ODS phaseout program.

Project Description

3.02 In order to fulfill the stated objectives, the project consists of two main elements involvinginstitutional strengthening and technology transfer (detailed project descriptions can be found in Annex 1):

A. The technology development element consists of five components in three of the major ODS-usingsectors, focussing on demonstration projects, technical assistance and training:

(a) The refrigeration sector consists of three components:

(i) the introduction of HFC-134a as a refrigerant replacing CFC-12 (US$395.,000). Thiswould involve the provision of engineering support to the largest refrigerationmanufacturer in Tunisia - Tabrid - which produces 300,000 refrigerators per year, ofwhich 200,000 are exported. With the assistance of a technical expert and supportfrom compressor manufacturers, the component would consist of designing severalrefrigerator models using the new refrigerant (HFC- 134a) and optimizing thephysical parameters of each design through a testing program so that lines ofproduction could be modified in a forthcoming project. The final phase wouldinvolve a combined seminar (component i & ii) to share appropriate findings withrepresentatives of the refrigeration sector;

(ii) the replacement of CFC- 11 as a foam-blowing agent by a low CFC and/or non-CFCsubstance (US$435,000). This would involve the testing of a low-CFC (50 percentby volume - CO/H 20) or a non-CFC (100 percent HCFC-142b/22, HCFC-141b orcyclopentane) foam blowing technique for the rigid foams used as refrigeratorinsulation, and a study of the effects of the foam on physical and energy parameters.This would be done in Tabrid and the second largest refrigerator manufacturer,Grands Ateliers du Nord (GAN); and

(iii) the introduction of a CFC-recycling and refrigeration maintenance program to trainrefrigeration technicians how to recycle CFCs and handle non-ODS refrigerants(US$478,000; OTF). The training course would be the first step in introducing atechnicians accreditation system which would eventually be attached to the licensingof industries handling and importing ODSs. This would be recommended under thegovernmental actions.

(b) The flexible foam component (US$187,000) would demonstrate the replacement of CFC-11with a non-ODS substitute. This would be either H2O/CO2 mixed with polyols for higherdensity foams or methylene chloride (MeCl) for blowing low density foam used in themanufacturing of cushions and mattresses (about 70 percent of the Tunisian flexible foammarket). Because MeCl can be toxic to humans in a closed environment, the component

5

would provide for the acquisition of equipment needed for safe manufacturing and handlingof foam blown with MeCI, and worker awareness training seminars.

(c) The aerosol component (US$278,000) would consist of a sectoral study in order to determinethe full technical and financial needs for technology development. The study would consistof a sector assessment, a technology assessment as well as incremental cost calculations forshifting to ODS free propellants; additional training would be carried out in the use andhandling of LPG for the remaining manufacturers, based on the results of the study.

13. The Institutional Strengthening element (US$480,000) consists of establishing the Ozone ProjectImplementation Unit (OPIU) which would be responsible for execution of the project within theplanned budget and schedule and in conformance with Bank guidelines. The OPIU will be headedby the Project Director (a staff member of the ANPE) and managed by a Project Manager (to befinanced under the grant). An institutional specialist will be obtained on a part time basis in orderto provide assistance with the preparation of operational procedures and guidelines, detailed termsof reference, design and establishment of a monitoring system which would be used to follow upon phaseout activities, and procurement of consultants and goods. The component would provideconsulting services, equipment and support staff to the OPIU for project management and projectidentification. The OPIU would be responsible for the preparation of new projects (which mayalso include demonstration components in new technologies not covered by this project), andspecifically, a feasibility study to identify immediate needs for an investment project which wouldallow full conversion to CFC-free refrigerators. These new projects would be reviewed by theNOC and the Ozone Operations Resource Group (OORG - the Bank's technical ozone reviewingand advising committee consisting of technical specialists in all the ODS technologies), andsubmitted to the ECMF for the financing of incremental costs.

Project Costs and Financing

3.03 The estimated total project costs are US$2.32 million of which US$1.79 million would be financedboy the Ozone Projects Trust Fund (OTF) grant; the balance of US$531,000 would be financed by theparticipating industries and the Government of Tunisia (GOT). This was confirmed during appraisal. Inaccordance with the guidelines issued by the ECMF which require that grants be provided to projects forwhich the costs are not recovered within a two year period, the Government agreed that funds be awarded byANPE to the participating enterprises on a grant basis net of all taxes and duties. Assurances have beenobtained during Negotiations that all items to be financed by the project would be exempt from taxes anddLuties.

3.04 Sub-grant agreements between ANPE and the recipient enterprises would be signed to formalizetlhe making of grant proceeds available. The Government has submitted: (a) a draft model sub-grantagreement between the participating refrigerator enterprise and ANPE prior to negotiations: and will submit(b) the relevant signed sub-grant agreements prior to disbursement of grant funds to the counterpartresponsible for the implementation of the relevant project component.

Project Implementation

3.06 The proposed project would be implemented over a period of three years. It is expected that itwould start in February 1994, be completed by June 30, 1997, and closed by December 31, 1997. ANPEwould be the executing agency for this project, by virtue of delegation by the Ministere de la CooperationInternationale et de l'Investissement de l'Exterieur (MCIIE). A diagram illustrating the Bank, recipient andbeneficiary relationship and proposed management structure is provided in Figure 2.

3.07 Implementation of this project would be carried out by the OPIU (para. 3.02(A)) to be establishedwithin ANPE and financed by the Project. The Project Director would provide guidance and monitor thefive Project components through Component Coordinators with the assistance of a Project Manager. TheProject Manager would be responsible for overall coordination of Project activities, procurement of goodsand services for all project components and monitoring of accounts. During appraisal a Project Managerwas proposed by the ANPE and the Component Coordinators were identified by each lead enterprise. Priorto negotiations. ANPE appointed a Project Director who will have overall responsibility for the Project. TheProject Manager, appointed under terms of reference satisfactory to the Bank, was formally appointed as acondition of grant effectiveness.

3.08 The Project Director would have overall responsibility for the implementation of the Project. Asthe initial project is a demonstration project, it is expected that following the successful demonstration ofC)DS phaseout technology, investment projects would be prepared. The OPIU would be responsible foridentifying and preparing future investment projects which could commence during project implementation.Support for this activity would be obtained from the technical specialists during their periodic visits to

TIunisia to oversee the technical components. The NOC (para. 1.07) would be responsible for reviewingproject proposals and providing guidance on national priorities and recommended governmental actions.Support for the development of OPIU and NOC procedural guidelines for carrying out delegatedresponsibilities (as outlined in para. 1.07) would be obtained through the institutional specialist (para. 3.02(A)).

Project Sustainability

3.09 By successfully demonstrating ODS-free technology in key industries, the project would open thedoor to further private sector investment in non-ODS technology, particularly with the availability offunding from MFMP to assist with incremental capital and operating costs associated with phasing out ODSin forthcoming projects.

P'rocurement

3.10 Procurement of goods and services would be made in accordance with the Guidelines forProcurement under IBRD Loans and IDA Credits (May 1992). The hiring of consultant services will be inaccordance with the Guidelines for the Use of Consultants by World Bank Borrowers and by the World Bankas Executing Agency (August 1981). Schedule B summarizes procurement arrangements under the GrantAgreement. Procurement of goods and personnel which will not be financed by the grant (localcontribution) will be carried out according to standard government or enterprise practice.

8

3.11 Goods and services. To the extent possible, contracts for goods would be grouped to allow for theprocurement of larger packages. The bulk of the equipment procurement is expected to be for: (a)up-grading of existing refrigeration systems (including testing laboratories); (b) modification of foamingmachines and replacement of injection pumps; (c) acquisition of a small number of computers, copyingmachines, simple tools and materials; and (d) training by suppliers. Contracts larger than US$50,000 wouldbe procured on the basis of International Shopping (IS) with at least three price quotations from at leastthree countries. Local Shopping would be applied for contracts up to an aggregate amount equivalent toUS$350,000 and would be based on at least three price quotations from local suppliers, to ensurecompetitive prices. All initial contracts and subsequent contracts valued above US$50,000 would be subjectto prior review by the Bank.

3.12 Consultants' services for technical assistance, studies and training. The document- (terms ofreference and contracts) for training, studies or consulting services valued at more than US$1(0,dOO wo.l!dbe subject to prior review by the Bank. Consulting contracts, valued below US$100,000 equivalent wouldbe subject only to random post-review by the Bank and would be retained by the ANPE for review by WorldBank supervision missions. Terms of reference drafted by ANPE and approved by the Bank, would besubmitted in an annex to the contract with the selected consultants.

Disbursement

3.13 Role of the Executing Agency. Under the proposed project, and in accordance wit'h a ProjectAgreement, ANPE would maintain all accounts and disbursement records, as part of its role as the executingagency. Under a Grant Agreement between the Bank and MCIIE, ANPE, to be specified as the executingagency, would make all disbursements related to the implementation of the five project components, keepproject accounts, prepare periodic project reports, arrange for the audit, and prepare new ODS phase-outprojects.

3.14 Because of the large number of small contracts which would be required, and to reduce the intervalbetween payment made by the beneficiaries and receipt of reimbursements from the Bank, a SpecialAccount would be established within the Central Bank of Tunisia from which ANPE would have theauthority to withdraw funds. It was confirmed. during negotiations. that a special account would beestablished for the Project under terms and conditions satisfactory to the Bank. After effectiveness and uponthe Recipient's request, the Bank would make an initial deposit up to an amount equivalent to four months ofestimated expenditures (US$175,000) and would replenish the Account monthly, or whenever one half ofthe amount has been withdrawn. Withdrawals from the Special Account would be supported by the usualdocumentation required under Bank-financed projects. Project expenditures would be monitored by ANPE.Figure 3 provides an overall diagram of the recommended flow of funds which was discussed duringappraisal. Payments would be made by the Central Bank following the submission of request for paymentby ANPE. Experience to date with the Central Bank of Tunisia and Bank projects has been very good withfew or no incidences of delayed payments.

3.15 Except for contracts requiring prior Bank review, disbursement would be made against a certifiedstatement of expenditure for which detailed documentation evidencing expenditures would be madeavailable for the required audit, and also for review by the Bank supervision missions. The financingrequests would be processed by the OPIU.

3.16 The allocation of grant funds and the disbursement percentages are summarized in Schedule B.The text of the first draft Sub-grant agreement between ANPE and one of the participating enterprises canbe found in Annex 3. The disbursement categories to be used are (i) equipment, materials and supplies, and(ii) consulting services, training and operational services. Under equipment would be items such as tools,

9

evacuation pumps, compressors, foaming machines, recycling machines, etc. Materials would includerefrigerants, polyols, lubricants, isocyanate etc. Supplies would include office furniture, computers andprinters, photocopier etc. The second category would include all training, fees for technical assistance,office and car rental, seminars, incentive bonus workshops, telephone and fax expenses, etc.

Accounts and Audits

317 An independent Auditor, acceptable to the Bank, would: (a) audit ANPE Project componentaccounts; (b) apply auditing standards and procedures satisfactory to the Bank that conform to generallyaccepted auditing practices; (c) carry-out auditing work in a timely manner (an annual report would bepresented no later than six months after the end of each calendar year); and (d) render an audit opinion notlater than six months after each fiscal year. The Auditor would provide preliminary assistance in financialmanagement and application of modem auditing procedures to ANPE staff, including assistance insetting-up the format of the Project accounts, as part of its strengthening of the ANPE. Assurances to thiseffect was obtained during Negotiations.

Supervision

318 Supervision by a Bank team will take place semi-annually following the submission of theprogress report. The supervision missions would be composed of the task manager, at least one financialspecialist, to be supported by one ODS or other specialists as needed, and will require about 15 staffweeks(sws) in the first year, 10 sws thereafter. During the first supervision mission a project launch seminarwould take place at the request of the Government in order to train the project participants in Bank andMvlontreal Protocol project preparation and implementation procedures.

Environmental Aspects

3.19 While the overall impacts of the project are environmentally positive from a global perspective, itwould be necessary to address potential local issues. Therefore, the project has been classified, according toOperational Directive 4.01, as "B", requiring limited environmental analysis. All new substances introducedto the Tunisian industries would have to follow the safety guidelines recommended by the manufacturersa and conform to international safety standards. The main issues to be addressed are related to worker health,safety and awareness in the aerosol and foam industries which may be using flammable and potentially toxicgases,cyclopentane, LPG and MeCl. Regarding the use of MeCl as a blowing agent for the flexible foamcomponent, health and safety measures would have to comply with international standards. Safety measuresrelated to the present use of LPG as a propellant would be investigated during the aerosol study andstrengthened as necessary with any new proposals for the use of LPG. Use of cyclopentane as a foamblowing agent would require the support of a technology partner experience in the safe use of cyclopentane,or a similar agent, for rigid foam applications.

IV. Expected Benefits And Risks

Project Benefits

4.01 The project's main benefit would be to introduce ODS replacement technology into the three mainODS consuming sectors in Tunisia, while also providing institutional strengthening to continue withProtocol activities in order to completely phaseout the use of ODSs. The project would demonstrate thetechnical feasibility of ODS-free technology in the three largest ODS using sectors in Tunisia. Successfuldemonstration and subsequent application (through investment financing of these technologies within the

10

participating industries would lead to a reduction in CFC consumption by approximately 33 percent.Replication of this technology throughout these sectors by the financing of subsequent investment projects(which can be done with the assistance of the MFMP) would lead to a decrease in ODS consumption byapproximately 97 percent.

4.02 By invoking an early ODS phaseout schedule, Tunisia is eligible to seek and receive assistancefrom the MFMP, thus reducing the burden on the government, industries, and ultimately consumers offinancing incremental costs.

Project Risks and Mitigation

4.03 There are three main project risks to consider: (a) a possible delaY in implementing start upactivities due to ANPE's lack of familiarity with Bank procedures, with a resultant delay in adopting therecommended accelerated phaseout schedule. This would be mitigated by: (i) securing an institutionalspecialist to assist with the preparation of detailed TORs, procurement documents, work plans, andprocedural guidelines for the OPIU and NOC; and (ii) presenting a project launch seminar during the firstsupervision mission following grant signing in order to familiarize project participants with Bank andMontreal Protocol guidelines and procedures for project preparation and implementation; (b) the reluctanceof manufacturers to cooperate with ANPE in the sharing of ozone friendly technology throughout therelevant sectors. This would be mitigated by the signing of the sub-grant agreements which would requirethe transfer of technology - obtained through OTF financing - between enterprises, signatures would berequired for grant effectiveness; and (c) the difficulty in enforcing an accreditation system in practice giventhat there is no present system for monitoring refrigeration technician activities and qualifications. Thiswould be partly mitigated by the provision of training courses to all qualified candidates prior to enforcingthe system, and by putting in place regulation of ODS distributors and a monitoring program of ODS-usingindustries.

V. Assurances. Conditions. Agreements And Recommendation

PROJECT COMPONENTS

Component 1 - Demonstration of prototypes for domestic refrigeration using HFC-134a

1. Component Description

]Background

The domestic refrigerator industry in Tunisia produced over 300,000 units in 1991, two thirds ofwhich were exported. This production required the use of imported refrigerants, compressors, and otherkey components. Production operations during the year 1991 consumed about 60 tons of CFC-12,corresponding to six percent of the total Tunisian ODS consumption.

The refrigerant HFC-134a has been judged by the Ozone Operations Resource Group (OORG) to becommercially proven and is emerging as the non-ODS refrigerant of choice in the US, Japan, and Europe.Hydrocarbon (HC) refrigerants are also considered to be acceptable for properly designed smallrefrigerators. It is generally foreseen that most major producers in developed countries will have convertedito HFC-134a refrigerant by 1996. HC refrigerants will likely find application in small refrigerators inEurope. With the ready availability of refrigerants, lubricants and components for HFC-134a, using thistechnology becomes a realistic and viable option for production of standard sized refrigerators in Tunisia.

The Copenhagen amendments under the Montreal Protocol, together with market forces in Tunisia'sprimary export market (Europe) will force Tunisian refrigerator producers to adopt ODS-free refrigerationcircuit technology for their exported units by 1996. The Tunisian Goveniment's Country Program for ODSPhaseout includes the recommendation that the production of CFC containing refrigerators be phased out byJanuary 1st, 1996.

A period of up to two years would be required for redesign, prototype production and testing beforefull scale commercial production of HFC-134a based refrigerators could commence. Hence, ademonstration project (Phase I) designed to carry out these preliminary steps is presented here.

Purpose of the component

The purpose of the component is to introduce HFC-134a technology to replace CFC-12 refrigerantin domestic refrigerators and to provide support for the testing of new HFC-134a refrigerator modelsmanufactured in Tunisia.

The objective would be achieved through engineering assistance and testing of the HFC-134arefrigerator units made with local materials and produced in local manufacturing facilities.

18

Component Participants

The component is proposed to be implemented by the Tabrid Group as this company develops itsown refrigerator designs, is the dominant manufacturer in the local market, and is the major Tunisianexporter of refrigerators.

Foreign-owned domestic refrigerator manufacturers (smaller production volume) in Tunisia produceunder license from multinational companies and may developsimilar programs in cooperation with their licensor.

Component Elements

The component comprises the following elements:

engineering support in the form of international consultant(s) with expertise in refrigerationtechnology for HFC-134a (to be selected by Tabrid) for review of the detailed project program,monitoring of progress through four (4) technical visits and evaluation of results;

technical assistance to develop and test three refrigerator models designed for HFC- 134a refrigerantat Tabrid.

The component would be carried out in the following phases:

-phase A: detailed planning: work plan, list of equipment, and detailed budget for equipment andtesting facility would be prepared by Tabrid with technical support. The work plan would beconsistent with the "Criteria for Development of Compressor and Appliance Projects" as preparedby the OORG Technical Advisors.

- hase B: design. development and procurement: development of HFC-134a refrigeration circuitdesign for 2-3 refrigerator models with support from technical experts and compressormanufacturer(s). Setting up of testing facility and procurement of testing equi- ' andrefrigeration circuit components.

-phase C: prototype production and testing: testing of production of each model prototype in a smalltest series (5-10 units), energy consumption and reliability testing, and adaptation of newcompressors for production. Identification of source of refrigerant and lubricating oil, and ancillarycomponents.

phase D: evaluation and seminar: evaluation of non-proprietary project components with results oftesting to be presented in a seminar for 20-30 representatives of the refrigeration sector in order todisseminate information throughout the sector on CFC-replacement options for refrigerant and forrigid foam insulation (to be carried out jointly with the rigid foam component described in thisAnnex). The seminar is to be conducted within 60 days of completion of Phase C: prototypeproduction and testing.

19

Source of Assistance

The source of the knowledge base for HFC-134a refrigeration technology would be obtained fromcompressor manufacturers and engineering consultants, familiar with ODS replacement technology, incollaboration with Tabrid. Assistance from the supplier of the data acquisition system (testing and qualitycontrol) would also be required. In addition, the international consultant(s) would be required to review,monitor and provide advice to the component coordinator. The consultant would assist the coordinator inpreparing a report on component progress to the Project Manager.

2. Component Execution

Time Schedule

This component is proposed to start during the 1st quarter of CY1994 in order for Tabrid tocommence production of new ODS-free refrigerators by 1996.

The planned duration of the component phases is:A: Detailed planning 0.2 yearB: Design, procurement, production 0.3 yearC: Carrying out test program 0.5 yearD: Evaluation 0.2 year

Total: 1.2 years

!Component Organization and Management

The component would be carried out within the organization of Tabrid. Tabrid has appointed acomponent coordinator, who would be responsible for reporting regularly (quarterly) on componentprogress to the Project Manager. The Component Coordinator would be responsible for assisting the ProjectManager in the presentation of results from the testing of new non-ODS refrigerator models to otherrefrigerator manufacturers in Tunisia.

The component would be initiated by the Project Director under the Agence Nationale pour laProtection de l'Environnement (ANPE), who would contract the international consultant(s) and commissionTabrid to prepare the detailed plan and budget (phase A).

At the end of each year, Tabrid shall submit a report containing an evaluation of the resultsobtained, a review of difficulties encountered and how these were resolved, an account for expenses, and anadjusted plan and budget for the following year. The report would be reviewed by the independentconsultant, who would advise the Project Manager on its acceptability according to Montreal ProtocolExecutive Committee funding guidelines. The consultant would also carry out a technical audit at Tabridonce a year.

3. Benefits of the Component

This component would demonstrate the available technology for the replacement of CFC-12 withHFC- 134a under local Tunisian conditions. Once applied on a production level, the total phaseout of 60tons/year CFC-12 refrigerant would be achieved. The stock of new refrigerators in Tunisia would then startto be replaced by HFC-134a units, thereby minimizing the need for forced scrapping of existing refrigeratorunits as the Montreal Protocol target for phaseout is approached.

20

Component 2 - Demonstration of conversion to non-CFC rigid foam technology in the domesticrefrigeration sector

1. Component Description

Background

In 1991, the Tunisian domestic and commercial refrigeration industry used 175 tons of CFC- 11 as blowingagent for rigid foam insulation, the greatest consumption was in the domestic sector. This corresponds to 16percent of total ODS consumption in Tunisia. Existing alternatives which are options to reduce or eliminatethe consumption of regulated CFCs in rigid foam applications include:

A. In the short term, replacing 50 percent of CFC-11 consumption with water/CO2 blowing.This technology is commercially proven and has been used by European manufacturers for2-4 years. Their experience shows that the 3-8 percent loss in insulation thermal efficiencycan be compensated for with formulation and procedural adjustments and minor redesignsof the refrigerator.

B. Replacing 100 percent of CFC-11, as a second stage, with a mixture of HCFC-142b/22which is also a commercially proven technology. This change would reduce insulationefficiency and may require increasing the thickness of the refrigerator wall to achieveproper refrigerator performance and thermal efficiency.

C. Replacing 100 percent of CFC-1 1 directly with 100 percent HCFC-14 1b. This option mayprovide a slightly better thermal efficiency than other non-CFC options, but awaitsresolution of outstanding technical issues pertaining to liner compatibility.

D. Replacing 100 percent of CFC-1 1 with CO2 given off from the water/isocyanate reaction.This formulation produces an insulation which has inferior structural and thermal efficiencycharacteristics but may find application in cold food carts and buffet's.

E. As a full zero-ODP option, use of cyclopentane blowing agent following adoption of or inlieu of other options. While this is the most promising of the zero-ODP technologies, itmust take proper account of relevant safety measures. The support of a technology partnerexperienced in the safe use of cyclopentane blowing agents for rigid foam applicationswould be required for implementation.

The application of these foam formulation technologies may require some modification orreplacement of existing foam injection machines

Tabrid has elected to go forward with direct conversion to a non-CFC blowing agent based onpreliminary tests carried out with a foam supplier. Tabrid is planning to test both HCFC-142bW22 andHCFC-141b in order to determine which technology is best suited for the Tunisian environment. A zeroODP technology would be adopted if and when it is possible to safely introduce this technology, with theappropriate technology transfer support.

Because complete phaseout of CFCs in domestic refrigerators is recommended by 1996, thiscomponent, which is aimed at replacing CFC- 11 as a foam blowing agent, must be given high priority.

21

Purpose of the Component

The purpose of the component is to test methods of conversion to CFC-free refrigerator insulationtechnology. In conjunction with the refrigerant project component (conversion of refrigeration circuit toHFC-134a) this component would enable Tabrid to produce a totally CFC free refrigerator for marketing inthe EEC. This is considered vital to the company's future.

The objective of the component would be achieved through technical support and demonstration ofthe selected method of technology.

.Component Participants

'The component would involve the main domestic refrigerator manufacturers, TABRID with its tenproduction lines and Grands Ateliers du Nord (GAN), with its three production lines.

!Component Elements

'The component would be carried out in the following phases:

phase A: seminar and consultations: a seminar on low and zero CFC technology options for thefoam sector is to be presented in coordination with the refrigeration seminar in Component 1. TheNational Ozone Committee (NOC) initiatives for support of conversation projects are also to bediscussed. The seminar is to be supplemented by consultations with representatives of least (3)leading foam technology suppliers.

- hase B: conversion: modification/replacement of foaming machinery by the manufacturers incollaboration with the suppliers of foam formulations. Short term (reduced CFC) and long term(zero ODP) options would be considered in the selection of any new foaming machinery. Thecornversion would be coordinated with the refrigerant component and would be phased to testpcrformance of the chosen technologies under Tunisian conditions prior to full implementation ofthe conversion.

Source Assistance

The main source of assistance would be the suppliers of insulation foam formulations withadditional support from the producers of foaming equipment.

Assistance would also be required from an outside international consultant(s) with relevantbackground, who shall assist the Project Manager in negotiations with the manufacturers, review ofproposals and monitoring of modifications.

2. Component Execution

Tlime Schedule

The component should be initiated immediately. The planned duration of the component phases is:

- A: seminar and consultations 0.3 year- B: conversion 1.2 year

Total 1.5 years

22

Component Organization and Management

The component would be initiated and monitored by the Project Director in collaboration with theAssociation of Domestic Appliance Manufacturers.

The conversion shall be organized by the participating manufacturers, who have appointed acomponent coordinator responsible for reporting to the Project Manager under ANPE. Each manufacturer isto develop - in collaboration with his supplier of foam systems - a conversion program with a budget to besubmitted to the Project Manager. After review by the consultant, component implementation wouldproceed.

3. Benefits of the Component

As a result of the component, the consumption of regulated CFC for rigid foam insulation ofappliances would be reduced over a 1-2 year period from the present level of 175 tons/year, and could becompletely eliminated by 1995/96.

23

Component 3 - Maintenance of Domestic. Commercial and Industrial Refrigerators

1. Project Description

Background

In 1991, there were about 800,000 domestic refrigerators in use in Tunisia containing a total ofabout 200 tons of CFC-12 refrigerant. Servicing accounted for an estimated consumption of 140 tons ofCFC-12, corresponding to 12 percent of the country's total ODS use. There is also an important andgrowing number of large commercial and industrial refrigeration systems in Tunisia using CFC refrigerantsfor food display, processing and cold storage, central air conditioning and other applications. It is estimatedthat 40 tons of CFC were used in 1991 for installation and servicing of these units (about 4 percent of thecountry's total ODS use).

Service companies' experience indicates that the average domestic refrigerator is serviced every 7-10 years (either to replace a failed compressor or to fix a major leak in the refrigeration circuit) and that onthe average 1 kg CFC is used on each servicing (150-250 g to replace the original refrigerant charge and thebalance for flushing, purging, and leak testing).

The technique of using CFC-12 to flush refrigerator circuits following service repair indicates that100 tonnes of CFC-12 per year is needlessly exhausted into the atmosphere during repair work. Thisconsumption can be eliminated if the following improved procedures are adopted:

(a) Usage of nitrogen instead of CFC for flushing of the circuits. As the cost for nitrogen is well belowthe cost for CFC, this procedural change can be economically viable, and can be carried out at mostrepair locations. The use of nitrogen for purging is a well established technique in Europe andelsewhere.

(b) Recycling of refrigerants by using recovery and recycling machines. This procedure is primarilyrecommended for large system servicing and for repairs carried out under workshop conditions.

Servicing of domestic refrigerators is carried out at manufacturer's service workshops (located at theproduction plants and at licensed workshops in major cities), independent workshops and in owners' homes.The work is carried out by refrigeration technicians or by personnel engaged in general servicing ofhousehold appliances.

It is estimated that domestic refrigerator repairs involving recharging of refrigerant represents about800 man-years annually. As some of the personnel do other jobs as well, it is estimated that about 2000persons are engaged in this activity.

Large commercial and industrial units are installed and serviced with the participation ofrefrigeration technicians. Training of these technicians in improved servicing practices for handling CFCrefrigerants, and in non-CFC refrigeration technologies including retrofitting, would reduce the consumptionof CFC gases and facilitate the introduction of ozone friendly refrigeration technology in the commercialand industrial sectors.

The consumption of CFC can be reduced through a training program in which improved servicingpractices and refrigerant recycling techniques are taught. A realistic goal for the program would be to reach30 percent of the estimated workforce over a 3 year period. As the improved techniques are profitable inthemselves, their use can be expected to spread further through word of mouth.

24

Purpose of the Component

The purpose of the component is to improve the servicing and repair procedures for domesticrefrigeration, to increase awareness of the ozone issue among service personnel, and to reduce the use ofCFC-12 through recycling.

The objective would be achieved through a study, a training program, technical assistance, and thefinancing of recycling equipment.

Component Elements

The component comprises the following elements:

- an initial study describing the present domestic refrigerator service sector and providing a detailedplan for the actual training;

a training program. Three (3) Tunisian refrigeration instructors would receive intensive training inrecycling, recovery, improved service procedures etc. at an established training center abroad (e.g.Center de Thermique de l'INSA de Lyon). Instruction would be in French. Consideration would begiven to adding a fourth instructor if budgetary constraints permit.

The instructors would provide a series of courses to train about 300 practicing refrigerationtechnicians per year in the above skills. It is anticipated that a certificate would be issued to eachtechnician upon completion of the course as part of a national accreditation system.

The training program would comprise:

(i) an overview of the contribution made by CFC refrigerants to ozone depletion and globalwarming and the environmental and economic reasons why it is necessary to eliminate theiruse as soon as possible;

(ii) techniques of refrigerant recovery and the use of recycling machines. The circumstances inwhich it is acceptable to use recycling machines (as opposed to a central reclamation plant,not currently planned for Tunisia) to clean refrigerant would be clarified;

(iii) methods of carrying out standard service procedures with a minimum of refrigerant loss;and

(iv) techniques for retrofitting CFC based equipment with CFC alternatives. This would bedemonstrated on refrigeration systems used for training by the refrigeration trainingestablishments participating in the program.

technical assistance from an institution which has already developed a program on proper servicingpractices. This would be the establishment providing teacher training described above Thecomponent coordinator would prepare the preliminary study, propose a training plan, organizeinstruction abroad, suggest teaching materials, and monitor the component at regular intervals; and

25

demonstration of recycling equipment. It is estimated that ten to fifteen (10 - 15) refrigerantrecycling machines and/or pumps would be purchased by the project (depending upon the programdesign based on a study in Phase A below). Five (5) of these machines would be distributed on arotational basis to a range of refrigeration repair businesses identified in the initial study describedabove. Their use would be monitored (in terms of money saved as a result of re-using CFCrefrigerant) by the component coordinator for 1-2 years. At the end of this period the results wouldbe evaluated for cost effectiveness. A series of seminars organized by the coordinator would beplanned to transfer the knowledge gained to non-participating businesses.

The component would be carried out in the following phases:

phase A: study and detailed planning: a detailed description of the service sector for domestic,commercial and industrial refrigerators, a registration of service workshops, tabulation of thenumber and education of employees, and types of repairs based on a series of interviews (numberand age of units serviced, use of CFC, reason for recharging, where repairs take place, etc.).Further, the study would review existing authorization schemes for servicing companies andpersonnel (if any), and recommend a suitable arrangement for such a scheme. On the basis of thestudy, a detailed plan for the actual training would be prepared. During phase A, employmentprocedures for the instructors or selected technicians would be initiated.

Detailed planning would consider the recycle/recovery experiences of similar programs indeveloped as well as in developing countries.

Having obtained a profile of the refrigeration service industry, the study would also comment on thea priori viability of a central reclamation scheme for Tunisia.

phase B: training of instructors/technicians: it is planned to train three to four instructors asdescribed above under training. Some would be refrigeration instructors currently teaching inTunisian refrigeration schools, others would be recruited from the local pool of experienced andpracticing refrigeration technicians.

phase C: training program: training would be offered as a 2 week workshop course with classroominstruction, including recycling techniques and retrofit techniques as described above under training.Assuming that each instructor can conduct 16 on-the-job courses per year with 6-7 students, it is

tentatively estimated that 600 service workers would pass the ODS training courses over theduration of the program. This number could be increased depending on contributions from theTunisian Government through its educational institutions.

phase D: evaluation and follow-up: at the end of the two year training program, a final evaluationreport would be written by the coordinator, at which time it would be considered whether and howthe program may be extended to cover refrigeration technicians who have not yet participated in thecourse.

Component Participants

The refrigeration service businesses participating in the recycling equipment demonstration programdescribed above would be identified during the initial study.

26

The Tabrid Group has an extensive after sales repair and service network. It is expected that theywould be an active participant in the training program, and possibly be one of the participants in thedemonstration program above.

Source of Assistance

Technical assistance in providing training manuals and other teaching materials is required from themanufacturers of the recycling machines. It is therefore essential that these resource needs are detailed inthe contracts between the supplier and Tabrid. The recycling machines must be imported. There are severalcompanies in Europe, USA and Asia which supply recycling machines of various types and quality. It isessential that the machines meet accepted international standards both in terms of manufacture andperformance (the relevant standards are considered to be SAE 1990 and 1991).

Duties of Coordinator

The duties of the coordinator consist of:

- carrying out an initial service sector study (with assistance of experts);

detailed planning of technician training program including arrangements for overseasinstructor training. Assessment of further training requirements at end of component;

- ongoing evaluation of the training program and regular reporting to project manager;

- supervision of recycling machine demonstration program and organization of promotionalseminars at end of component.

2. Component Execution

Time Schedule

The component is proposed to start early 1994. The planned duration of the project phases is:

- A: study and detailed planning 0.3 year- B: training of instructors 0.5 year- C: training program/demo. program 2.0 years- D: evaluation and follow-up 0.2 year

Total 3.0 years

Component Organization and Management

The training program would be coordinated by the component coordinator who would reportregularly to the Project Manager.

The component would be initiated by the Project Director, who would employ the coordinator aswell as the team of instructors. The Project Manager would procure equipment and training materials withsupport from the component coordinator.

Evaluation of the training program would be done periodically to enable adjustment of thecomponent if necessary.

27

3. Benefits of the Component

The current servicing practices indicate that up to 100 tons/year of CFC- 12 can be saved (given thepresent stock of refrigerators) by shifting from CFC-12 to nitrogen for flushing and by recovery andrecycling CFC released during purging and leak testing. In practice, the expected benefit of the project isestimated to be around 25 tons in the first year of CFC not wasted through CFC flushing. As the practice isspread through out the sector the impact would naturally increase.

28

Conmponent 4 - Technical Seminar. Consultations and Demonstration in the Flexible Foam Sector

1. Component Description

Background

The manufacturers of mattresses, furniture cushioning and similar flexible foam products and rigidinsulation foam in Tunisia used approximately 400 tons/year of CFC-1 1 as foam blowing agent in 1991.This corresponds to 37 percent of total ODS consumption in Tunisia. The purpose of the CFC in themanufacturing process is to facilitate the production of the lighter (and less durable foam) qualities used forlow cost products.

Standard foam formulations are presently available using new polyols suitable for using CO2 fromthe waterfisocyanate reaction as the sole foaming agent.This allows CFC-free production of flexible foam of any specification in the range 18-50 kg/m3 (mediumand high density foam). The production can be carried out with the existing slab stock production machinesoperated in Tunisia. The C0 2/water blowing technique, however, cannot be used for the production of thelow density (<18 kg/m3) foam which comprises about 70 percent of the flexible foam market. Methylenechloride, which is now being used successfully throughout Europe and the US, has been proposed as thefoaming agent for this product. The main expense associated with this conversion would be the acquisitionof safety equipment. The technique of safe foaming with methylene chloride would be demonstrated first atone selected foam manufacturer (Sotumous).

Purpose of the Component

The purpose of the component is to facilitate the conversion to CFC free technology in one selectedmanufacturer, Sotumous, which would serve as a demonstration site for other flexible foam manufacturers.Methylene chloride may also be used for high density foam production for manufacturers which do notutilize high pressure pumps.

The project would be to achieve the objective through technical assistance and productiondemonstrations.

Component Elements

technical assistance to the participating manufacturer of flexible foam in the form of a study andconsultation abroad. Individual consultations to other manufacturers would be provided by thecomponent coordinator on options for CFC replacement technology.

investment in safety equipment required for the conversion of one plant to 100 percent methylenechloride to serve as a demonstration of set up, worker awareness and safety training.

demonstration to test the quality and production of flexible foam (low and high density) using themethylene chloride foaming agent.

29

The component would be carried out in the following phases:

- phase A: Detailed Preparation - Fact finding field trip in order to decide on equipment to be used;preparation of detailed equipment list; planning for installations of equipment to ensure minimumdisruption of production.

- phase B: Acquisition and installation of equipment, and preparation of worker safety and awarenessseminars for all Sotomous workers and management personnel. Safety equipment consists of acomplete enclosure for the production line and a large number of extraction fans over the foamingarea and foam storage area.

Project Participants

The component participant, Sotumous is one of the major manufacturers of flexible foam productsin Tunisia and would be the first to demonstrate the technique of using methylene chloride and theassociated safety equipment. The component coordinator would provide information regarding conversionto the other major manufacturers of flexible foam products in Tunisia.

Source of Assistance

The main source of assistance would be the suppliers of flexible foam formulations and suppliers ofsafety equipment.

Assistance would also be provided by a fact-finding mission and participation in a training course inalternative flexible foam technology. The coordinator would assist the Project Manager with technicalseminars, negotiations with other manufacturers, review of future proposals and monitoring of flexible foamconversion projects.

2. Project Execution

Time Schedule

The component is proposed to start in the 1st quarter of 1994. The duration of the project phases isexpected to be:

- A: Detailed Preparation 0.3 year- B: Acquisition and Installation of Equipment 0.5 year- C: Test Production and production demonstration 0.5 year- D: Evaluation 0.2 year

Total 1.5 year

Project Organization and Management

Testing of foam production would be organized by the manufacturer, who has appointed acomponent coordinator responsible for selecting equipment, carrying out tests, giving seminars on workersafety and reporting to the Project Manager.

30

It is expected that other manufacturers may then develop - in collaboration with a supplier of foamsystems - a test production project component with a budget to be submitted to the Project Manager under asecond project to be funded by the MF. After review by an external expert, the 2nd component could beapproved and submitted to the MPEC for approval of financing.

3. Benefits of the Component

As a result of the component, the consumption of ODS in Tunisia would be reduced in Sotumous by32 tons/year of CFC- 11 which is the present amount released to the atmosphere from flexible foam blowingprocesses. The component would demonstrate the use of MeCI in the flexible foam sector which, as awhole, utilizes 400 tons/year of CFC- 11.

The aerosol industry in Tunisia used 230 tons of CFC in 1991 for the production of aerosol sprayproducts. This corresponds to 21 percent of total ODS consumption in Tunisia. The CFC serves aspropellant for the active ingredient in the product.

A variety of alternatives is available to replace CFCs in specific products:

LPG, DME, compressed gases, HFCs, and other replacement propellants;pump sprays, bag cans;solid sticks, roll-ons, brushes, and other non-aerosol technologies.

Adoption of a particular option, in most cases, involves added expenses such as safety precautions,modification or replacement of can filling equipment, and/or plant relocation.

Several industrialized countries banned CFC for aerosols more than a decade ago, and now there is avast amount of experience on selecting suitable non-CFC technology for specific applications. Somre of the

options, such as replacing CFC with LPG or CO2 where this is acceptable, are actually cheaper than the CFCsolution.

In Tunisia, the total estimated production of aerosol sprays in 1992 was 1,812,500 cans (equivalentto 270 tons CFC-12/yr'). Eighty percent of this production was distributed as follows under the majormanufacturers:

Enterprise Cans/yr Tons CFC-12/yr'Judy 500,000 75Codepar 300,000 45Proxim/Chimap 250,000 38Lipp l'Oreal 200,000 30Floreal 200.000 30TOTAL 1,450,000 218

Based on infornation obtained during pre-appraisal, all but Judy have experience with conversion toa non-ODS propellent. This represents about 950,000 cans per year (143 tons/yr) or about 52 percent of- thsproduction of spray cans. This corresponds proportionally to the amount of CFC consumed in themanufacture of propellent for filling the cans. Therefore, in the aerosol sector, Judy is the source ofapproximately 28 percent of CFC consumption while smaller artisanal manufacturers account for about 20percent (54 tons/year). This suggests that about 48 percent of 1992 usage remains to be phased out.

'Based on the average content of 150g CFC-12/can.

Purpose of the Component

The purpose of the component is to review the CFC usage status of the aerosol sector and to assistthe remaining aerosol product manufacturers in selection and demonstration of the most appropriate ODS-free technology.

The component objective would be achieved primarily through technical assistance anddemonstration.

Component Elements

The component comprises the following elements:

- technical support for a study on CFC-free options already in use in Tunisia and examination of theoptions which may be feasible for supporting the conversion of remaining users of CFC propellants.The results of the study would be shared through a seminar on CFC-free options for aerosolmanufacturers and consultations on appropriate technology for individual manufacturers;

- technical support to demonstrate conversion using technology selected on the basis of the study.

The component would be carried out in the following phases:

-phase A: study of the aerosol sector in Tunisia to examine the present situation regarding conversionto non-ODP propellants (which enterprises have converted, type of non-ODP technology selected,types of aerosol products used, degree of success of conversion, issues to be addressed) in order toselect and propose the optimal aerosol conversion technology for the remaining large manufacturer,Judy, and the smaller individual manufacturers. The study would also examine the possible use offinancial instruments to enable all remaining aerosol manufacturers to convert to non-ODS productsearlier than agreed upon in the Montreal Protocol for developing countries2 . The final phase of thestudy would be to design seminars to be given to representatives of the aerosol sector.

phase B: seminars and assistance with the design of subprojects would be provided for all (smalland large) aerosol fillers throughout Tunisia in which participants would design demonstrationprojects for CFC replacement or chose altemative compensation packages as recommended basedon the results of the study. The preparation of these subprojects would serve as models for theTunisians in project preparation and would be evaluated during the first supervision mission.

phase C: demonstration of conversion to non-ODS propellants would involve the application of andtraining for safety measures to be applied with the use of LPGs or another selected replacementtechnology, and financial mechanisms necessary for phasing out small producers. This would befollowed by an evaluation.

2 These small aerosol producers use small amounts of CFC-12 which would deplete stocks of this fluid at a time ofincreasing shortage. Eliminating its use by small aerosol producers would release more for use in refrigeration where there isno straightforward alternative, e.g. re-charging domestic refrigerators. The results of the study would be presented by theComponent Coordinator in the form of seminars and consultations to the these remaining small CFC-using aerosolproducers.

33

Project Participants

T'he project participants would include Judy, a representative for the smaller aerosol manufacturers, and thecurrent manufacturers of non-CFC aerosol products in Tunisia.

Source of Assistance

Akssistance would be required from an international consultant(s) with relevant background in the aerosolsector and experience in developing countries. The expert would advise the Coordinator on preparationneeded for the study, a technical introduction seminar, individual consultations, and preparation of proposalsfor future project components which can be submitted for funding (in compliance with MPEC criteria) inthe second phase of the Action Plan. The study would be carried out by the expert consultant andcomponent coordinator.

2. Project Execution

Time Schedule

The component shall be started immediately, i.e. 1st quarter of CY1994. The planned duration ofthe project phases is:

- A: study of aerosol sector 0.2 years- B: seminars & subcomponent designs 0.3 years- C: demonstrations & evaluation 1.0 years

Total 1.5 years

Project Organization and Management

The study and technical seminars would be organized by the Component Coordinator with theassistance of an aerosol expert in consultation with the Project Manager, the ODS Committee and theAssociation of Aerosol Manufacturers and other relevant industry organizations.

Any future project component proposals which have been cleared by the Project Director and OzoneCommittee would be prepared in full by the Component Coordinator in collaboration with the relevantmanufacturers.

3. Benefits of the Component

The component would enable remaining CFC propellent users to select the appropriate technologyfor conversion and to propose the optimal plan for the smaller artisanal manufacturers. The componentwould therefore lay the groundwork for complete elimination of the present consumption (the exact amountto be determined during the study).

34

INSTITUTIONAL STRENGTHENING COMPONENT

The institutional strengthening component consists of the establishment of an Ozone ProjectsImplementation Unit (OPIU) within the Agence National de la Protection de l'Environnement (ANPE)which is under the Ministry of Environment in Tunisia. The OPIU is to be responsible for overall Projectimplementation and the preparation of the second phase of ODS phaseout projects. The Prcject wouldfinance incentive bonuses for professional and support staff already in place, technical assistance, officeequipment and maintenance expenses required for the implementation of Project management: activities.Primary staff would consist of a qualified project manager (PM) familiar with ODS issues in Tunisia, abilingual secretary, a technical assistant and an accountant. Technical needs would be addressed byinstitutional and technical specialists from abroad who would advise and assist with project implementation.The institutional specialist would assist with the preparation and updating of procedural guidelines for theOPIU and the National Ozone Committee (NOC) which would advise OPIU management on nationalpriorities and review proposed ODS phaseout legislation and incentives. The technical specialists wouldprovide advice to firms engaged in the implementation of project components.

35

NOC Responsibilities

The National Ozone Committee was created by the GOT following its signing of the MontrealProtocol and is composed of 15 members representing concerned ministries, industries, academicinstitutions and NGOs. Their main responsibilities are to: (a) propose required legislation and regulatorymeasures needed to reach ODS phaseout objectives; (b) provide guidance on the implementation of theCountry Program for the Phaseout of ODS which would include proposing and/or reviewing new projectconcepts; and (c) serve as a liaison between the ministries, legislature, concerned industries and theexecuting agency regarding all ODS phaseout activity, including resolving project issues as they arise.

Source of Assistance

For each component, technical specialists would visit Tunisia to carry out studies, present seminarsor provide assistance with project implementation. At the start of the project, an institution specialist(obtained locally or through inter-/intra-ministerial cooperation) would assist the TM by: (a) draftingguidelines and procedures for the NOC and OPIU to be reviewed by the Project Director; (b) clarifyingWorld Bank procedures regarding procurement, disbursement and audit requirements; and (c) providingassistance as requested in the development of regulatory measures to be proposed to reach ODS phaseoutobjectives, and in the development of an ODS monitoring system.

Throughout the project, technical specialists would visit Tunisia in association with the Project'stechnical components. These specialists would also work with the Project Director in resolving technicalProject issues and proposing and drafting new projects for the second phase of ODS phaseout activities.The last visit of the technical specialists would include a project completion seminar to which all theindustries in the ODS-using sector would be invited in order to share project results.

If requested by the Government, a "project launch seminar" would be carried out in order tofamiliarize the OPIU with all Bank procedures for procurement, disbursement and project preparation aswell as Montreal Protocol guidelines and criteria for project funding and approval. A disbursement seminarwas provided to key staff at the Central Bank of Tunisia in September 1993, and these staff have assuredtheir availability for the training of government officials and staff as necessary.

Annex 2

RECOMMENDED GOVERNMENTAL REGULATORY MEASURES

The following regulatory measures are recommended for the Government of Tunisia to encourage anaccelerated phaseout of ODSs:

a. Bans on the use of ODSs for specific purposes at specifically given dates in accordance withthe recommended ODS phaseout schedule (table 3). It should be noted that this schedule isby no means definitive and will be updated according to the recently agreed CopenhagenAmendments. Further studies into the detailed consumption patterns and negotiations withthe ODS-using industries is mandatory before issuing any bans. Based on the revisedCountry Program and with the assistance of the institutional advisor and the National OzoneCommittee, the ANPE will prepare the necessary legislation for the introduction of the bans.

b. Special ODS tax on imports of all controlled substances (Table 1). The purpose of the tax isto encourage the initial substitution of ODSs in easily substitutable applications such asaerosols and flexible foams. The revenue from the ODS tax could be used for localfinancing of projects aimed at ODS substitution and information dissemination. The taxshould be higher than the incremental substitution costs in these applications but less thanthe present sales price of CFC-12 on the local market which is around US$ 4 per kilogram.A tax of US$ 1-2 per kg is suggested. Tax increases will be considered at a later stage inthe phaseout plan.

c. Tax exemptions for imports of ODS conserving technology. Imports of ODS conservingtechnology, such as recovery and recycling machines and safety equipment should beexempted from the general import duty, as is already the case for other environmentalequipment imported to Tunisia.

d. Standards for recycled CFC and foam densities. International (ARI) standards for recycledCFC will be provided in order to guarantee the quality of repairs using recycled refrigerants.In the future, standards for minimum densities of flexible foam of e.g. 18-20 kg/in3 will

encourage the use of CO/water blowing instead of CFC or other blowing agents. Thestandards should be communicated to the affected industries.

40

RECOMMENDED MONITORING SYSTEM FOR ODS

It is recommended to establish a system for monitoring ODS consumption in Tunisia with thepurpose of controlling compliance with the Montreal Protocol and the national ODS phaseout policy.Furthermore, the monitoring system will function as the basis for efficient and considerate policy actionsand adjustments of the regulatory and phaseout schedule.

The system should allow for monitoring of ODS imports, price trends and consumption patterns (byend user sector and type of ODS). The monitoring system should cover the substances controlled by theProtocol, i.e. CFCs, halons, methyl chloroform and carbon tetrachloride, as well as HCFC-22 and othertransitional and potential substitute chemicals.

The Customs Department ('Directorate des Douanes') would hold responsibility for recording allimports and exports of ODSs both as chemicals and in products containing ODSs (refrigerators, aerosolcans, foam formulations, insulation sheets, fire fighting equipment, mobile air conditioners in cars, etc.).The recording should following the International Classification System (ISCS). Customs should alsoregister the names of the importers and exporters, and they would report on a regular basis (e.g. quarterly) toboth the Institut National de Statistique (INS) and the National Ozone Committee. As registration ofimports and exports is already computerized, it would simply be a question of expanding this system.

41

RECOMMENDED ODS LICENSING AND ACCREDITATION OF REFRIGERATIONTECHNICIANS

It is recommended that ANPE incorporates in its regulations of ODS phaseout a licensing system inorder to facilitate the monitoring of all sales of ODSs in Tunisia. When fully implemented, a license will berequired for all imports and internal purchases of ODSs as chemicals. The requirements for obtaining theODS license shall be worked out for each group of ODS users. The potential for a marketable permitsystem may be explored as a future option.

In the case of refrigeration service personnel, it is recommended that the license is attached to anaccreditation system for service technicians. Only certified service personnel/shops should obtain and ODSlicense. To obtain a certificate, the service technicians must complete a short ODS handling course (seeAnnex 1 project component for refrigeration training and maintenance), encouraging improved servicingprocedures and recovery and recycling of CFCs. The certificate could also be tied to equipmentrequirements such as vacuum pumps, recovery equipment, etc. It is, of course, necessary that the training bemade available to all before the license system can be fully implemented.

The cost of training will be covered by the project component for a period of three years.
