There are many difficult problems in the packaging drum industry that need to be solved. The most important one is the pollution problem. Enterprises usually use fire to burn off the remaining resin in the barrels of resin steel drums, and then wash them with water. It is understood that in the past, these hazardous waste steel drums were recycled and refurbished at the roadside outside Baifeng Village under the relatively remote Shiniu Bridge. Since this place is close to the Oujiang River, a large amount of waste water produced by washing barrels is directly discharged into the Oujiang River, which affects the water quality of the Oujiang River. Sealed, banned, shut down the earth workshop. But for a while, the resin steel drums of many synthetic leather enterprises had no place to deal with, and they piled up like mountains, which not only wastes resources, but also pollutes the environment. In order to reduce the input cost of enterprises, save energy, reduce pollution, and turn blockage into sparse Feng) Drum Industry Co., Ltd. (the above-mentioned burning drum enterprise), which specializes in recycling and refurbishing resin steel drums, requires them to improve technology, improve environmental protection facilities, and pass environmental protection assessments. However, after the company started construction, due to high environmental protection requirements, the company's processing profit was low. Driven by interests, the company began to secretly violate regulations, secretly burning waste resin steel drums with open flames, and washing them with water.

On the afternoon of July 11 this year, the reporter came to the factory building of the company, and a large truck was parked at the door, which was loading refurbished recycled barrels. The reporter learned about the situation from a worker who loaded the truck. According to him, a truck can hold more than 110 steel drums, and they need to transport seven or eight trucks a day. They can refurbish nearly a thousand steel drums every day. They can earn about 3,000 yuan per month. Walking further into the workshop, the pungent paint smell was unbearable, and the sound of hammers hitting old buckets was deafening, but the workers who were used to this environment were all shirtless and without any protective measures. Several barrel washing lines are in operation in the workshop. Workers continuously transport the steel barrels burned in the open to the side of the production line. The workers in each assembly line push the steel barrels into the barrel washer to wash off the sediment on the inner wall of the barrels and rinse them with water. . The waste water discharged from each assembly line is collected in a drainage ditch and flows to the open space outside the fence, with a large water flow. According to the workers who drove piles at a nearby construction site, due to the low terrain of the construction site, the sewage from Hongfeng Bucket Industry Co., Ltd. after washing the buckets all flowed into the pile foundation of the construction site. No one dared to go into the water for piling.
