    China Paint Online News Information In the time when regulations on the prevention and control of air pollution were issued in many places and VOCs were the focus of the treatment, the coating enterprises rarely noticed that there was an environmental protection policy that might have far-reaching effects on the chemical coatings industry in the future: on the evening of May 31, the State Council issued the Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of Soil Pollution (article 10), which made a comprehensive strategic deployment for the prevention and control of soil pollution in China in the coming period, requiring that by 2020, the national soil pollution increase trend will be initially curbed.
    serious land pollution, tu enterprises need to be led as a warning
    "Earth Ten" issue means that after the prevention and control of air pollution, soil environmental pollution has become the focus of China's next heavy-handed treatment. In recent years, the state for ecological environmental protection monitoring more and more detailed, issued a number of sub-areas of policy, on March 3, this year, the Ministry of Environmental Protection confirmed that the relevant departments of the Central Government in February last year approved the Ministry of Environmental Protection agency preparation for partial adjustment, no longer retain the Pollution Prevention and Control Division, the Total Pollutant Emissions Control Division, the establishment of water, atmosphere, soil three environmental management departments. The author thinks that this is conducive to the implementation of the central government on the protection of the ecological environment to carry out the work effectively, take the paint industry, in the sustainable development of the state policy, many enterprises are happy to respond to the call to shout some environmental slogans, in fact, what to do is not clear, there are no specific regulations to guide how to do, with an item Specific regulations are being implemented, coating enterprises are also adapting to adjustment, whether active and passive, transformation is imperative, a while ago more than the collection of VOCs sewage charges, the paint industry is greatly restricted, this "Earth Ten" release, will also guide coating enterprises in soil protection to make a difference.
    In the eyes of many paint people, environmental protection seems to be with the soil is not a side, in fact, the case of soil pollution is not uncommon, but because it is difficult to present and often ignored, the recent "Changzhou toxic incident" caused by several chemical enterprises caused by social discussion: Jiangsu Changzhou Chinese school relocation of the new site, 493 students have been checked out of dermatitis, abnormal blood indicators and other cases, individual students were found to have lymphoma and so on. It is understood that there have been three chemical plants on the north side of changxinbei campus, the largest one is Jiangsu Changlong Chemical Co., Ltd., the other two are Changyu Chemical and Huada Chemical, it is understood that the three chemical enterprises have been Beijing Chaoyang District Friends of Nature Environmental Research Institute and China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation filed a lawsuit. In addition, there is the 2013 Hunan "cadmium rice" incident, in 2012 Qujing City, "6̇12" chromium slag illegal dumping pollution incident ...
    How serious is the soil pollution in our country? From 2005 to 2013, the Ministry of Environmental Protection, together with the Ministry of Land and Resources, conducted the first national survey on soil pollution. The results show that the total point-exceeding rate of soil in China is 16.1%, i.e. 161 of the 1000 points inspected are over-polluted. The pollution type is mainly inorganic pollution, organic pollution is second, and the proportion of compound pollution is small, and in different land use types, the excess rate of cultivated land, forest land, grassland and unused soil is 19.4%, 10.0%, 10.4% and 11.4%, respectively. The highest rate of exceeding the standard is close to one-fifth, the data is shocking, the tu enterprises can not let go.
    Resolving the "Earth Ten"
    "Earth Ten" will focus on the supervision of oil exploration, petroleum processing, chemical industry, coking and other industries, strictly control the priority protection of cultivated land concentrated areas of new petroleum processing, chemical, coking and other industries enterprises. It can be seen that the "Earth Ten" will have a far-reaching impact on the future development of the chemical industry, the author remembers may about the chemical park to raise the level, Tu enterprises face the topic of relocation (transmission door: chemical park to raise the level, the level of enterprises also followed the mention? After experiencing dangerous chemical explosion, soil pollution and other incidents, the public more avoid chemical coating enterprises, but in the process of relocation of coating enterprises, but also need the guidance of government departments, do a good job of repair work, to avoid the later land hazards, "Earth Ten" is in the process for public safety escort.
    The work objectives of the
    Toe Ten" are: by 2020, the increasing trend of soil pollution in China will be initially curbed, the quality of soil environment will remain stable overall, the safety of soil environment in agricultural land and construction land will be basically guaranteed, and the risk of soil environment will be basically controlled. By 2030, the quality of soil environment in China will be stable and good, the environmental safety of soil in agricultural and construction land will be effectively guaranteed, and soil environmental risks will be fully controlled. By the middle of this century, the soil environment quality has improved in an all-round way, and the ecosystem has achieved a virtuous circle. Specific indicators are that by 2020, the safe utilization rate of contaminated farmland will reach about 90%, and the safe utilization rate of contaminated land will reach more than 90%. By 2030, the safe utilization rate of contaminated cultivated land will reach more than 95%, and the safe utilization rate of contaminated land will reach more than 95%.
    in order to achieve the goal smoothly, "Ten Earths" put forward ten measures: First, to carry out soil pollution survey, grasp the soil environmental quality status. Second, promote soil pollution prevention and control legislation, establish and improve the system of regulatory standards. Third, the implementation of agricultural land classification management, to ensure the safety of agricultural production environment. Fourth, the implementation of construction land access management, to prevent the environmental risks of human habitat. Fifth, strengthen the protection of unsosted soil and strictly control new soil pollution. Sixth, strengthen the supervision of pollution sources and do a good job in soil pollution prevention. Seventh, to carry out pollution control and restoration, improve the quality of regional soil environment. Eighth, increase scientific and technological research and development efforts to promote the development of environmental protection industry. Nine is to play a leading role in the government to build a soil environmental management system. Ten is to strengthen the target assessment, strict accountability.
    Tu enterprises can get the greatest inspiration from the "Earth Ten", should be to refresh the concept of environmental protection, Tu Enterprise's production land is not bought without scruples, go can not be done once and for all, need to cooperate with the relevant departments to do a good job in soil pollution prevention. This is back to the old-school environmental protection issues, Tu enterprises in this regard need to assume more and more social responsibility, can not sit and wait for the policy "allocation of tasks", the initiative to transform and upgrade is the right way, in any case, adhere to the direction of environmental protection development is always right.
    In the Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of Soil Pollution, there are some detailed provisions for the design of the chemical industry worthy of the attention of enterprises, such as: clear regulatory focus, focus on the supervision of non-ferrous metal mining, non-ferrous metal smelting, petroleum mining, petroleum processing, chemical industry, coking, electroplating, tanning and other industries, as well as grain (oil) counties, urban built-up areas at or above the level; Enterprises in industries such as those in the existing relevant industries should adopt new technologies and processes to speed up the pace of upgrading and upgrading of tenders, establish an investigation and evaluation system, and, from 2017, strictly control the use of land for non-ferrous metal smelting, petroleum processing, chemicals, coking, electroplating, tanning and other industries to be reclaimed, as well as the above-mentioned enterprise land used for public facilities such as residential and commercial, schools, medical care and old-age institutions, and the land-use right to conduct a survey and assessment of the state of the soil environment; Enterprises in the petroleum processing, chemical, coking, electroplating, tanning and other industries should dismantle production facilities, structures and pollution control facilities, and formulate plans in advance for the clean-up and safe disposal of residual pollutants; To clean up and rectify the recycling activities such as e-waste, waste tires and waste plastics; In accordance with the principle of "who pollutes and who controls", the units or individuals that cause soil pollution should bear the main responsibility for
    It is worth noting that the "Earth Ten" proposed to build an integrated prevention and control of the first area, by the end of 2016, in Zhejiang Taizhou, Hubei Yellowstone, Hunan Changde, Guangdong Shaoguan, Guangxi River Pool and Guizhou Copper Ren to start the construction of the comprehensive prevention and control of soil pollution. Other than that, Huacai Chemical Coatings Industrial City is located in Ongyuan County, Shaoguan City, Hongyuan waterproof, Dongxu Group, Yande new materials and other coatings chemical enterprises have settled in it. The pressure of the first pilot is great, but if Huacai Chemical Coatings Industrial City is lucky enough to gain experience in the process of participating in the construction of coating enterprises to combat soil pollution, this will certainly be a valuable asset of the chemical coatings industry.
    central government has determined the general direction of soil pollution control, and it is understood that the implementation of the "Ten Earths" is expected to boost GDP growth by about 2.7 trillion yuan, which could add more than 2 million new jobs. By 2020, it is expected to drive the environmental protection industry to add about 450 billion yuan in output value. In the long run, this measure is considerable, but in a short period of time is not likely to bring returns, relying on enterprises alone is difficult to support the market. For the paint industry, but also the need for the popularization and assistance of relevant national departments, we hereby call for the introduction of the industry soil pollution control rules as soon as possible, so that the operation of coating enterprises have rules to follow.
    When tu enterprises encounter "earth ten", can not panic, than like the bottom line of headless flies, we are more willing to see law to follow, rules to follow, so that enterprises can also be more at ease into research and development and production. At present, the "Earth Ten" only determines the general direction of soil pollution prevention and control, but tu enterprises may wish to take a step forward, before the implementation of specific measures to be prepared.
