Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- Uzmetkombinat is implementing a large-scale program to improve the environmental performance of production facilities. This year alone, over 100 environmental protection measures are planned, the company's press service reported.
"Today, at the plant, all sources of harmful emissions into the atmosphere are equipped with dust and gas cleaning installations. Last year, all these installations carried out work on the inspection and repair of equipment. In particular, soft seals and inserts were replaced at the air vents, air leakages at flange joints were eliminated. The workshop replaced 56 bag filters and dust and gas trapping plants in an electric arc furnace,” the deputy head of the department of ecology and environmental protection at the plant Nantin Dudarev said.
According to him, the department of ecology of the enterprise conducts continuous monitoring of emissions of harmful substances into the environment, storage and disposal of industrial waste, ensures the preservation of green spaces and land resources.
Last year, all the workshops and subdivisions of the plant developed and successfully implemented 41 environmental protection measures, of which 14 were for the protection of the water basin, the same number for air protection and 13 for the protection of flora and land resources.
"At the site of preparation of enamelling powder in the production of consumer goods, the irrigation nozzles of the dust and gas recovery unit of the smelting furnace were repaired. In the motor transport shop we transferred several cars to compressed natural gas. We ensure the fulfillment of all the established standards for industrial waste," the expert noted.
Great efforts in this direction are being made this year. The plant has planned 104 environmental protection measures, 33 of which have already been implemented. Given the importance of this work, not a single division of the enterprise has been left aside, each one is assigned a project to protect the environment.
“All these efforts are being undertaken to ensure that our plant’s activities comply with the mechanisms of clean development, and the negative impact on the environment has been minimized. Today, the company meets leading international standards in this direction,” Dudarev concluded.
