Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the impact generated by the Cleaner Production Agreement signed in 2004 between the Pisco Sector of the Region of Coquimbo and the National Council for Cleaner Production. For this study, the pisco sector is represented by the Sociedad AgrÃcola Hacienda Mal Paso. The agreement considered actions associated with clean practices used in the production process, mainly the handling of waste products and the efficient use of water, among other variables. An econometric model was used to determine the incidence of the data gathered between the years 2006 and 2011. A low incidence of solid waste was found directly related to water resources during processing, demonstrating that the handling of liquid industrial waste, along with efficient use of water, are the factors having the greatest impact.
