Are there any requirements regarding the distance between chemical plants? What is the minimum requirement?
It seems not; **different health protection distances are set for various industries. For example, the sanitary protection distance between the petrochemical facilities of such enterprises and residential areas is determined based on the enterprise’s production scale, the type of facility, and the average wind speed in the area where the construction project is located over the past five years; the distance from residential houses ranges from 600 meters to 900 meters.
There are no strict regulations, but generally there are distance limits between the office areas and the tank areas as well as the production areas. When conducting safety assessments, the assessment firms and design agencies take these factors into consideration, both for our company and for the neighboring companies
