Are environmental protection standards the same everywhere?
Thread Content
Let’s discuss whether the environmental protection standards are the same in different places. The coal chemical enterprises in Zaozhuang City, Shandong Province, follow the standard that requires the COD level of discharged wastewater to be less than 60； Ammonia nitrogen < 10 ； Total phosphorus < 1.5 ； Exhaust dust <30 ； Nitrogen oxides < 200 ； Sulfur dioxide < 200 ； What about you? ；
Compared to national standards, local standards should be stricter
This post was last edited by ddfmy on 2016-12-5 07:58; it should all be the same, with one standard applied uniformly. No one wants to cause trouble for themselves; setting the price too high harms the local economy, while setting it too low results in failure to meet the requirements.
Discharged wastewater, COD < 60； Ammonia nitrogen < 10 ； Total phosphorus < 1.5 ； Exhaust dust <30 ； Nitrogen oxides < 200 ； Sulfur dioxide < 200
Local standards are stringent; standards such as ammonia nitrogen and COD apply in Shandong Province and along the South-to-North Water Diversion project
They are different; even within the same province, there are differences. **The standards are the same, but local standards vary. Moreover, even when the standards are the same, the criteria used for inspection differ. In some places, certain indicators are not checked at all, such as total phosphorus, although it is included in the standards
They are different; **the standards are the same, but the local standards vary.
Ningdong Energy and Chemical Industry Base, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region: Exhaust gas and dust levels < 20； Nitrogen oxides < 100 ； Sulfur dioxide <50 ； Implementation began in 2017 with exhaust dust <5 ； Nitrogen oxides <60 ； Sulfur dioxide < 35. Environmental pressures are increasing, and there are a wide variety of current environmental treatment technologies; both the investment costs and operating expenses are high, imposing a significant burden on businesses.
It’s different; the version being executed is different
So, it’s not very fair for businesses either, right?
