ESG Report 2019

During the Year, in addition to maintaining an limits, and prevented underground water automatic monitoring system for waste water pollution triggered by the “running, emitting, d i s c ha r ge , I nne r Mongo l i a Compan y dropping and leakage” of wastewater during continued to commission a third-party the production process. Inner Mongolia institution to monitor wastewater on a Company also acquired new technologies and quarterly basis, and no excessive wastewater introduced advanced equipment to treat high- discharge was reported. Through an online concentration wastewater such as acidic monitoring system, Inner Mongolia Company wastewater, and strived to lower the strictly monitored the discharge of wastewater, parameter value of wastewater pollution and lowered the possibility of exceeding standard minimize detriments to the environment. EXHAUST GAS TREATMENT Inner Mongolia Company's reclaimed water million tonnes per year. Through the recycling reuse system will be fully operational in 2020, of wastewater, the project can help Inner with a maximum daily treatment capacity of Mongolia Company to achieve the basic goal 37,000 tonnes. It is expected to reduce of zero wastewater discharge starting from wastewater discharge by approximately 12.21 2020. Inner Mongolia Company generates air have reached the national emission standard pollutants in the production process, including before being emitted. In order to ensure that exhaust gas with a peculiar smell generated the amount of emission does not exceed the from sewage treatment process, exhaust gas legal standard, Inner Mongolia Company has g e n e r a t e d f r om p r o d u c t i o n p r o c e s s , formulated systems relating to pollutant phenylacetic acid exhaust gas generated from monitoring. In addition to maintaining the the fermentation process of phenylacetic acid automatic monitoring systems for relevant recycling, smoke of coal-fired boiler and the exhaust gases, the company has also exhaust gas emitted by the used motor commissioned a third party monitoring vehicles. In regard to the various types of institution to regularly monitor the gas from exhaust gas, Inner Mongolia Company has set pollution sources in every month or quarter. corresponding treatment facilities and During the Year, all gas emission of Inner systems to undergo recycling or purification Mongolia Company did not exceed the treatment, so as to ensure that all exhaust gas standard limit. ONLINE MONITORING SYSTEM ON WATER POLLUTANTS Inner Mongolia Company has established a comprehensive pollutant monitoring system to prevent excessive discharge or improper treatment of pollutants, and reduce the risk of environmental disasters. An online monitoring system is set at the general outlet of wastewater to monitor the chemical oxygen demand (COD) and ammonia nitrogen (NH-N) concentrations of the wastewater. The relevant data would be uploaded to the website of the Urban Environment Information Monitoring Center in real time, and would be released on designated information platform at fixed time to ensure the transparency of wastewater discharge from Inner Mongolia Company. 65 Environmental, Social and Governance Report 2019 The United Laboratories International Holdings Limited
