Nowadays, **the environmental requirements for chemical production are becoming increasingly strict, which has led to the emergence of more and more environmental protection companies; however, related problems are also becoming more apparent. Many environmental protection companies handle the design themselves, while the client provides the construction drawings. However, environmental protection companies don’t make a living from design work; therefore, their designs are generally less refined compared to those produced by design institutes. The reason for this is that, from the client’s perspective, it is after all waste disposal, so their requirements are not high ； From Party B’s perspective, the timeline for environmental protection projects is generally short, and it is not possible to invest too much effort in the design phase ； In terms of systems, there are no high-level constraints. However, strict environmental protection measures are an inevitable trend; in such a case, will environmental-friendly design become more standardized and receive greater attention?
Yes, it will. . Environmental protection, in essence, is a branch of chemical engineering. . Or an extension. . In many foreign countries, environmental protection is classified under the chemical industry sector; for example, in Australia. In China, environmental protection often remains a mere formality these days. . It’s often only when there’s no other choice and the situation is urgent that action is taken; if it can be delayed, it should be delayed, but once action is taken, it becomes urgent. . Sometimes, property owners don’t want anything that’s overly standardized; they don’t seek perfection, only the basic functionality. Most environmental protection companies focus on technical processes and lack significant experience in design and subsequent project implementation. Without good design and engineering implementation experience, most small companies end up losing money. As environmental regulations become stricter, most small environmental protection companies will be eliminated. Both design and engineering implementation will be standardized.
