Pollution prevention and control aimed at "rejuvenation"

Pollution prevention and control of the Ministry of Environmental Protection aimed at “rejuvenating risks” and taking environmental improvement as a guide. News from the National Directorate of Environmental Protection 2012 was recently held. The next phase of pollution prevention and control of the Ministry of Environmental Protection will focus on the three types of pollution of heavy metals, chemicals and hazardous wastes. The total amount of emission reduction is still an important issue for the current ecological civilization construction and environmental protection work.

Li Lei, deputy director of the Department of Pollution Prevention and Control of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, pointed out at the meeting that the rapid development of the chemical industry has brought tremendous environmental pressure, and the environmental risks of both old and new chemicals have also existed; in addition, the current emergency caused by dangerous chemicals and heavy metal pollution. Frequent environmental incidents. She said that the next phase of pollution prevention and control of the Ministry of Environmental Protection will highlight three types of pollutants: heavy metals, chemicals and hazardous waste.

Among them, the chemical prevention and control focus includes 14 key prevention and control provinces, 60 key prevention and control chemicals and 6 key prevention and control industries, involving the petroleum processing industry, coking industry, nuclear fuel processing industry, chemical raw materials and chemical products manufacturing industry, Pharmaceutical manufacturing, chemical fiber manufacturing.

Li Lei also made it clear that the pollution rectification actions of the above three types of pollutants were mainly carried out through three means: first, to fully use the target responsibility system for assessment; second, to establish a model city for environmental protection; and third, to verify environmental protection.

At the same time, Wang Yuqing, deputy director of the National People's Political Consultative Conference on Population, Environment and Environment, also stated that although the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” target has increased the emission reduction target to four types of pollutants, there are many other types of pollution. The emissions of substances are still huge, including heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants that are harmful to the human body and the environment. There is still a long way to go to improve the overall environmental quality. When the total discharge of pollutants is much larger than the environmental capacity, it is necessary to insist on the total amount of pollutants to reduce emissions and strive to achieve the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” emission reduction targets. He pointed out that in some qualified areas, the environmental protection work model can be considered from the goal of environmental pollution control as a guide to change to improve the quality of the environment as the goal.
