In recent years, various localities have become more and more strict in rectifying "scattered and polluted" enterprises, so what are "scattered and polluted" enterprises?

What is a scattered and polluted enterprise?

"Scattered and polluted" enterprises refer to enterprises that do not conform to industrial policies, do not conform to local industrial layout planning, and have not gone through the relevant approval procedures for industry and information technology, development and reform, land, planning, environmental protection, industry and commerce, quality supervision, safety supervision, and electric power, and cannot stably meet the emission standards.

unclean

It refers to enterprises that have no pollution prevention and control facilities or incomplete pollution prevention and control facilities, cannot effectively collect the pollutants produced, and have serious unorganized emissions, enterprises that do not have the ability to meet the emission standards of pollution prevention and control facilities, enterprises that have no governance value, and enterprises that cannot achieve stable discharge standards.

It can be seen that "scattered and polluted" enterprises themselves are illegal and illegal, but they have either existed for many years and are gradually being eliminated, or they are hidden in private houses and quietly produced, but their harm to the environment cannot be underestimated.

In order to strive for greater profit margins, some electroplating workshops do not configure relevant pollution control measures, and directly discharge production wastewater without any treatment, which seriously pollutes the environment and harms the production and life of surrounding residents.

Take the "three nos" (i.e., no business license, no production license, no pollutant discharge permit) car wash shop as an example. They do not have a regulated sewage system, and most of the dirty water from car washes flows directly to the surrounding ground or ditches. On the surface, it seems that it only pollutes the water environment, but after the ground is dried, a large amount of dust will be formed when the vehicles run over it, polluting the air. There are also car washes that operate car repair businesses in violation of regulations, such as open-air painting. The volatile organic compounds released by spray paint are easily photochemically polluted with other components in the atmosphere after being exposed to sunlight, forming pollutants such as ozone and PM2.5.

  1. Small scale and poor workmanship. Most of them are family-run enterprises or individual businesses. Including non-ferrous smelting processing, rubber production, tanning, chemical industry, ceramic firing, casting, wire mesh processing, steel rolling, refractory materials, carbon production, lime kiln, brick kiln, waste plastics, stone processing, as well as small manufacturing and processing enterprises involving coatings, inks, adhesives, organic solvents, etc.

  2. Scattered distribution. It is mostly distributed in rural areas and urban-rural areas, and its location is relatively hidden. The distribution of such enterprises does not conform to the local industrial layout plan, is not in the industrial agglomeration area, and most of them are unlicensed, incomplete, illegal construction, and illegal operation enterprises.  

  3. Polluting the environment. It can be divided into gas-related "pollution" enterprises and water-related "pollution" enterprises. Such enterprises do not have any pollution treatment equipment, and the pollutants produced are directly discharged into the atmosphere or rivers, causing serious pollution to the surrounding environment.

What are the measures for scattered and polluting enterprises?

What are the measures to rectify "scattered pollution"? If "scattered pollution" is discovered, measures such as shutting down and banning it, relocating it within a time limit, and suspending production for rectification will be adopted to deal with it in a classified manner.

Shutdown and banning: For "scattered and polluted" enterprises that do not conform to the national industrial policy, should be handled but have not gone through the relevant procedures, or have no pollution prevention and control facilities, cannot stably meet the discharge standards, and have no hope of governance, they will be resolutely shut down and banned in accordance with the law, and the banning work will be completed in accordance with the standards of "two cuts and three cleans" (that is, water cuts, power cuts, raw materials, products, and equipment).

Time limit relocation: For enterprises that are in line with the national industrial policy, do not conform to the local industrial layout plan, have not been stationed in the industrial park and have polluted the environment for a long time, and can meet the relevant management requirements and conform to the industrial policy after integration, the local government shall scientifically plan and organize the implementation of integration and relocation of the above-mentioned enterprises, and enter the corresponding industrial park to develop large-scale and modern industries.

Suspension of production and remediation: For "scattered pollution" enterprises that are in line with the national industrial policy and the local industrial layout plan, have not installed pollution control facilities and cannot stably meet the emission standards, in accordance with the requirements of sustainable and clean production, urge the enterprises to upgrade and transform in terms of equipment technology and pollution control, so as to achieve stable emission standards, and if they fail to complete the remediation and transformation tasks within the time limit, they will be shut down and banned. For enterprises that cannot stably meet the emission standards, but involve people's livelihood and cannot stop production, the daily penalty procedure will be initiated in accordance with laws and regulations, and the continuous punishment of the whole process will be strictly implemented.
