Recently, China's first "Guideline for Assessment of Atmospheric VOCs Online Monitoring System" was released in Beijing.Experts said that the introduction of the "Guideline" will help improve the on-line monitoring and management of VOCs in China and will further promote the collection of VOCs sewage charges related to The production costs of polluting enterprises are either forced to increase.
It is understood that volatile organic compounds VOCs .On the one hand, as an important precursor of ozone and PM2.5, is the main contributor to the causes of haze. At the same time, VOCs and the formation of secondary pollutants, but also on Human health has a negative impact .Experts revealed that some VOCs genotoxicity and carcinogenicity.
Taking the large-scale VOCs emission paint industry as an example, it has a profound impact on society and the environment as an important part of people's production and living.According to statistics, up to 18.5% of the total VOCs emissions in China is currently in solvent-based paint production And the use of the process.Moreover, as a solvent-based paint paint, contribute more than 80% of the coatings industry VOCs emissions.
With the further implementation of the sewage charges levied VOCs, solvent-based paint production costs will inevitably increase, that is, the production of paint products will be directly reduced the profit.Therefore, China has introduced relevant policies, the use of paint companies to levy a 4% VOCs consumption tax. In the meantime, our country also introduced a series of policies in recent years, vigorously promote the promotion and application of low-VOCs water-borne coatings and powder coatings, hoping to replace them with paint products so as to achieve the purpose of reducing VOCs emissions.
Yang Yuan, vice president of China Chemical Industry Association revealed that for the moment, in the application side, water paint and other environmentally friendly paint the cost has been close to the paint products. The industry 'oil to water' surging wave of waves, the consumer side of the change also very obvious. Today, policies continue to overweight, will further accelerate the process of 'oil to the water' he said that the current market recognition of water based paints are constantly improving, paint manufacturers under heavy pressure, has chosen to transfer some of the costs to Consumer side, however, the paint market is more price sensitive, so the market share of water-based paints will likely be further enhanced.
It is understood that since the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" for the first time to include VOCs binding targets, the Ministry of Environmental Protection has released a series of VOCs monitoring standards and management programs.Currently, VOCs treatment has been the focus of the "Thirteen Five" air pollution control .In order to complete the "Sino-U.S. Climate change joint statement," the paint industry 'Thirteen Five' cut more than 10 million tons of VOCs international commitment to continue to suppress the paint industry is inevitable, the cost of paint products will also climb carry on.
At present, China has set standards for levying VOCs on sewage charges in 18 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in Beijing, Shanghai, Hunan, Jiangsu and Anhui, among which 17 have levied VOCs on sewage charges and Shanghai, Tianjin and Shenzhen The city has explicitly requested online monitoring to improve the effectiveness of the policy.
