Application for Emission Permit and Issuance of Technical Specification for Battery Industry

The prevention and control of heavy metal pollution in the battery industry has always been the focus of industry development. The Action Plan for Soil Pollution Prevention and Control clearly states that the prevention and control of pollution in heavy metal industries should be strengthened, the standards for the elimination of backward production capacity in lead-acid batteries and other industries should be raised, and backward production capacity should be gradually withdrawn. After more than 10 years of the National battery industry several rounds of special environmental protection remediation, the industry environmental protection situation has been significantly improved. However, heavy metal consumption and emissions from the industry remain significant. The control of heavy metal pollutants can not only depend on the monitoring of terminal discharge outlets. It is necessary to establish and perfect the environmental management of the whole process through the implementation of emission permits, reduce the environmental risks of the battery industry, and improve the level of pollution prevention and control.

There are many kinds of products in the battery industry, and different battery production processes and characteristic pollution factors are different. Even enterprises with different sizes of battery products have very different production processes, equipment and equipment levels, resource and energy consumption, and terminal treatment facilities. To carry out the reform of sewage permit system in this industry, it is urgent to provide scientific and effective support with the relevant technical specifications.

Recently, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment organized the "Application for Sewage Permit and Issuance of Technical Specification Battery Industry"(draft for consultation), and now it has begun to openly solicit opinions from the whole society.
