"Now our living area does not have any peculiar smell, and there are more birds around. In summer, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and in winter, it is covered with snow. The environment is good!" On December 21, living in Urumqi Dong Guojun, a resident next to the petrochemical company plant, said.

For a long time, Wuhan Petrochemical has attached great importance to environmental protection work. Focusing on the core goal of improving environmental quality, focusing on key installations, highlighting regional characteristics, and adopting the "Four Watches and Three Watches" work method, we continue to improve the level of refined pollution management and comprehensively in-depth , took multiple measures to carry out VOCs rectification and achieved remarkable results.

"This year, Wu Petrochemical has increased investment in the three links of storage tanks, loading and unloading, and sewage gathering and transportation, and has greatly improved the level of VOCs control through project renovation and inspection and maintenance." Xu Feng, Chief of the Environmental Management Section of the Quality, Health, Safety and Environmental Protection Department of Wu Petrochemical According to the introduction, the company’s VOCs rectification adopts the “four watch and three watch” working methods. The "four looks" are to look at waste gas collection and confiscation, whether pollution control facilities are installed, whether pollution control equipment is used in production, and whether the treatment effect is good. "Three close monitoring" refers to keeping a close eye on source emission reduction, whether the use of materials with volatile organic compound content exceeding the standard; keeping a close eye on process control, whether the operation uses closed equipment or operating in a confined space; keeping a close eye on end-of-pipe treatment, whether the waste gas emissions meet the standards.

In October 2022, Wuhan Petrochemical actively promoted the progress of VOCs control projects in Jiannan and Jianbei tank areas, as well as road loading VOCs control projects. Each project is assigned to a dedicated person, who holds special meetings every day to coordinate problems that arise during the project construction process, and actively and orderly promotes the management of environmental hazards. From March to June this year, it coincided with the start-up, shutdown and maintenance period of the equipment. While ensuring the start-up, shutdown and normal maintenance, Wu Petrochemical fully identified the construction risks of different production units and tank areas, and formulated effective on-site construction safety management and control plans. At the same time, on the basis of ensuring production and stable operation, we ensure the smooth progress of various environmental hazard control projects. It is reported that after the above-mentioned VOCs project is put into operation, it can reduce VOCs emissions by about 300 tons per year, and the effect is significant.

On September 26 this year, the odor control project of the sewage treatment facility in Wuzhou Petrochemical Water Purification Zone 2 was put into operation, and the concentration of pollution factors in the VOCs grid detection area was significantly reduced. On October 12, the VOCs standard-upgrading and transformation RTO device of Wu Petrochemical Water Purification Zone 1 was put into operation. By adjusting the exhaust gas ratio of each unit and orderly diverting the high-concentration exhaust gas into the RTO device, the on-site environment was greatly improved.

UNESCO has established and improved a long-term mechanism for ecological and environmental protection, promoted the implementation of "equal responsibilities of the party and government" and "dual responsibilities for one position" for ecological and environmental protection, and unswervingly followed the path of ecological priority and green development. The company has formulated treatment measures for 100 storage tanks and 14 VOCs treatment projects. Currently, it has completed the treatment of 100 storage tanks and 10 VOCs treatment projects. The remaining 4 VOCs treatment projects are in progress and are planned to be completed in 2024.
