Develop pollutant emission control technology, control pollution, protect and improve the environment. Environmental protection is extremely important in our life. We need to provide necessary fertile elements, such as water, fertilizer, gas and heat. In recent years, due to the rapid growth of population and the rapid development of industry, solid wastes are piled up and dumped on the soil surface, harmful wastewater seeps into the soil, and harmful gases and floating dust in the atmosphere continue to fall into the soil with rainwater, resulting in soil pollution. Any substance that interferes with the normal function of soil, reduces the yield and quality of crops, and indirectly affects human health through food, vegetables, fruits, etc. , known as soil pollutants. 2. The greenhouse effect of climate change and energy waste is a serious threat to all mankind. According to the prediction of 2,500 representative experts, the sea level will rise, and many densely populated areas (such as Bangladeshi, China coastal areas and most islands in the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean) will be submerged. Rising temperatures will also have a serious impact on agriculture and ecosystems. It is predicted that from 1990 to 20 10, the energy consumption in the Asia-Pacific region will double and that in Latin America will increase by 50%-70%. Therefore, the process of energy-saving technology transfer between the west and developing countries should be strengthened. In particular, we should use economic incentives to enable industrialists to develop technology to improve the utilization efficiency of industrial resources. Schematic diagram of greenhouse effect

Third, biodiversity is decreasing. Due to urbanization, agricultural development, forest reduction and environmental pollution, the natural area has become smaller and smaller, leading to the extinction of thousands of species. Because the extinction of some species will lead to the disappearance of many molecules that can be used to make new drugs, and also lead to the disappearance of many genes that can help crops overcome bad weather, and even lead to plague. Fourth, the reduction of forest area. In recent decades, the forest area in tropical countries has also been seriously reduced. In 1980- 1990,1500,000 hectares of forest disappeared in the world. At the current rate of forest area reduction, 40 years later, some Southeast Asian countries will never see a tree again. 5. Freshwater resources are threatened. According to experts' estimation, from the beginning of the next century, a quarter of the world will be short of water for a long time. Please remember that we can't make water, we can only try to protect it. Sixth, chemical pollution. Millions of compounds brought by industry exist in air, soil, water, plants, animals and human body. Even the ice sheet, the last large natural ecosystem on earth, has been polluted. Those organic compounds, heavy metals and toxic products are concentrated in the whole food chain, which will eventually threaten the health of animals and plants, lead to cancer and weaken soil fertility. Seven, chaotic urbanization. By the end of this century, there will be 2 1 big cities in the world, and the living conditions of big cities will further deteriorate: congestion, water pollution, poor sanitation and insecurity-the disorderly expansion of these big cities has also destroyed natural areas. Therefore, unrestricted urbanization should be regarded as a new drawback of civilization. Eight, the over-exploitation of the ocean and pollution in coastal areas. Polar ozone hole

Due to overfishing, the fishery resources of the ocean are decreasing at an alarming rate. Therefore, many poor people who live in protein and eat seafood are facing the threat of hunger. The rich heavy metals and organophosphorus compounds in fish may bring serious problems to the health of fish eaters. The coastal areas are under great population pressure. 60% of the world's population is crowded in places less than 100 km from the sea. This crowded population makes these usually fragile places out of balance. Nine, air pollution. The air in most big cities contains many pollutants from heating, transportation and factory production. These pollutants threaten the health of tens of millions of citizens and cause many deaths. Toxic gases are mainly carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and inhalable particles. Ten, the polar ozone hole. Although people have signed the Montreal Protocol, an ozone hole still forms over the earth's poles every spring. The ozone layer in the Arctic is lost by 20% to 30%, and the ozone layer in the Antarctic is lost by more than 5 1%.

Edit the definition of this paragraph.

Environmental protection refers to all human activities that use the theories and methods of environmental science to coordinate the relationship between human beings and the environment, solve various problems and protect and improve the environment. Including administrative, legal, economic, scientific and technical measures, rational utilization of natural resources, prevention of environmental pollution and destruction, in order to maintain and develop ecological balance, expand the reproduction of useful natural resources and ensure the development of human society. Environmental protection involves a wide range and is comprehensive. It involves many fields of natural science and social science, and its unique research object. Environmental protection contains at least three meanings:

Preservation of the natural environment

Prevent the deterioration of the natural environment. Including: protecting green mountains, green waters, blue sky and sea. This involves not privately mining (mining), chopping (trees), dumping (sewage), releasing (polluted gas), overgrazing, overexploiting natural resources, destroying the ecological balance of nature and so on. This level is macroscopic and can only be solved by governments at all levels exercising their functions and carrying out regulation.

Protect human habitation and living environment

Make it more suitable for the needs of human work and labor. This involves all aspects of people's daily necessities, and must meet the requirements of science, hygiene, health and green. This level belongs to the micro level, which can only be solved through the conscious actions of citizens, the protection of government policies and regulations, the guidance of community organizations and education, and the joint efforts of all walks of life.

Protect life on earth

Protection of species, protection of plants and vegetation, return of animals, combination of biodiversity and transgenic protection of endangered organisms.

Reasonable and prudent use, special and special protection for endangered species, restoration of extinct species, expansion of habitat, harmonious coexistence between man and creatures, and no bullying of other species. The relationship between these three levels is: you have me and I have you, each with its own emphasis and unity. The three are not contradictory, let alone antagonistic. As citizens, protecting our living environment means protecting the natural environment indirectly or directly; If we destroy the living environment, we will directly or indirectly destroy the natural environment. As a government, we should not only focus on macro-protection, but also start from micro-level, mobilize and educate the masses, and make environmental protection a conscious action of citizens. 1972 After the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment, the term "environmental protection" was widely used. For example, the former Soviet Union gradually changed the traditional "nature protection" to "environmental protection"; China put forward the policy of "comprehensive utilization" of industrial waste in 1956, and put forward the concept of "three wastes" treatment and recycling in the late 1960s, which changed into the scientific concept of "environmental protection" in the 1970s. According to the Environmental Protection Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), environmental protection includes protecting the natural environment and preventing pollution and other public hazards. In other words, we should use the theories and methods of modern environmental science to better understand and master the causes and harms of pollution and destruction of the environment, protect the environment in a planned way, restore the ecology, prevent the deterioration of environmental quality, control environmental pollution, and promote the coordinated development of human beings and the environment. China attaches importance to environmental protection relatively late, and there is still a gap between governments at all levels, so it is rarely called an environmental protection government. So it's too early to talk about environmental citizens.

Edit this paragraph.

Environmental protection means that human beings consciously protect natural resources, make rational use of natural resources and prevent the natural environment from being polluted and destroyed; It is necessary to comprehensively control the polluted and destroyed environment and create an environment suitable for human life and work. Environmental protection refers to various actions taken by human beings to solve real or potential environmental problems, coordinate the relationship between human beings and the environment, and ensure the sustainable development of economy and society. Its methods and means include engineering technology, administration, law, economy, publicity and education, etc. Its contents mainly include: (1) prevention and control of environmental pollution caused by production and living activities, including prevention and control of "three wastes" (waste water, waste gas and three wastes).

Slag), dust, radioactive substances, noise, vibration, odor and electromagnetic microwave radiation, harmful gases, liquids and noise generated by transportation activities, pollutants discharged by ships at sea, toxic and harmful chemicals used in industrial and agricultural production and people's life, soot, sewage and garbage discharged from urban life; (2) Preventing environmental damage caused by construction and development activities, including preventing environmental pollution and damage caused by large-scale water conservancy projects, railways, highway trunk lines, large-scale ports and docks, airports and large-scale industrial projects, and preventing environmental damage, pollution and impact caused by land reclamation around lakes, development of offshore oil fields, coastal zones and swamps, development of forests and mineral resources, and establishment and construction of new industrial zones and new towns; (3) Protecting the natural environment with special value, including effectively protecting rare species and their living environment, historical sites of special natural development, geological phenomena, landforms and landscapes, etc. In addition, urban and rural planning, controlling soil erosion and desertification, planting trees, controlling population growth and distribution, and rationally allocating productive forces also belong to environmental protection. Environmental protection has become one of the common actions and main tasks of governments and people all over the world. China declared that environmental protection is a basic national policy of China, and formulated and promulgated a series of laws and regulations on environmental protection to ensure the implementation of this basic national policy.

Edit the range of this paragraph.

Including protecting the earth, protecting the space universe and maintaining the living environment. Land (topography, landforms, etc. ), atmosphere, water, biology (human beings, forests, plants, animals, etc. ), sunlight, nature and artificial external world as a whole. Natural and cultural heritage.

Governance and protection of the earth

The reason why the earth's environmental protection puts governance ahead and protection behind is that the land has been polluted, so it is necessary to emphasize governance and protection at the same time. Strengthen the management of polluted land (land, mountains and continental shelf) and restore its source.

Control and protection of the atmosphere

Limit, reduce emissions, purify the atmosphere, and use natural+artificial methods.

water treatment

Because social production and life are closely related to water, water hunger, water shortage, drought and water pollution are the key points of water, and "water treatment" is the most important and urgent focus of the water family. Therefore, the field of water treatment involves a wide range of applications and constitutes a huge industrial application. There is a tendency to exceed "natural water". The water treatment method includes: (1) sediment filtration, (2) hard water softening, (3) activated carbon adsorption, (4) deionization, (5) reverse osmosis and reverse osmosis; (6) ultrafiltration, (7) distillation, (8) ultraviolet disinfection, (9) biochemical method, etc. And the most novel (10) forward osmosis method, a new natural purification method created by human beings. The natural "forward osmosis" method reduces the secondary and tertiary pollution, consumes energy and warms a bright future. Promote the negative growth of environmental water cost.

Edit the measures in this paragraph.

1. air conditioning is 26 degrees in winter 18 summer, saving hundreds of millions of degrees nationwide. In winter, the air conditioning temperature is adjusted to below 18 degrees. If you feel a little cold, you can put on more clothes. Such a simple measure can save electricity, thus reducing greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide emitted by coal-fired power generation and slowing down climate warming. In summer, the air conditioning temperature is adjusted to above 26 degrees. The air conditioning load in big cities accounts for about 40%-50% of the maximum power supply load in midsummer. Increasing the air conditioning temperature from 22-24℃ to 26-28℃ can reduce the power load 10%- 15% and reduce the electricity consumption by more than 400-600 million kWh. Sweating in summer is beneficial to people, which can enhance metabolism, regulate endocrine function and promote autoimmunity. 2. Use energy-saving lamps instead of light bulbs, saving electricity by nearly 80%. If you want to buy products that have passed the national energy-saving product certification, you can judge by whether the word "festival" is printed. Under the same luminous flux, energy-saving lamps save 80% electricity compared with incandescent lamps, and the cost of purchasing energy-saving lamps can be recovered from (8 ~ 10) months of energy saving. 3. Garbage classification is not littered for recycling. In garbage, about 50% is biological organic matter, and about 30%-40% is recyclable. In 2000, six kinds of recyclable wastes were produced in China, namely, waste steel 4 1.5-0.43 million tons, waste nonferrous metal 0/0.2 million tons, waste rubber 850,000-920,000 tons, waste plastic 2.3-2.5 million tons and waste glass 0/0.40 million tons. At present, the value of waste that can be used but not used in China reaches 25 billion yuan every year, and about 3 million tons of scrap steel and 6 million tons of waste paper are not recycled. The recovery rate of waste plastics is less than 3%, and the recovery rate of rubber is 3 1%. Only more than 6 billion waste dry batteries contain more than 70,000 tons of zinc and 654.38+10,000 tons of manganese dioxide every year. 4. Turn off the power supply without electrical appliances to save electricity. 10% can see all kinds of electrical appliances at home and office, such as TV and computer. Please turn off the power when not in use. In standby mode, the average power consumption per hour of TV set, air conditioner, monitor, PC host and range hood is 8.07 Joules, 3.47 Joules, 7.69 Joules, 35.07 Joules and 6.06 Joules respectively. Turning off the power can not only save your electricity bill, but also protect the environment. 5. Encourage energy-intensive enterprises to install energy-saving facilities. In recent ten years, due to energy shortage, with the further development of energy saving work. Various new advanced energy-saving kilns are becoming more and more perfect, and the heat loss of kilns is obviously reduced after adopting high-quality insulation materials such as new refractory fibers. Adopt advanced combustion device to strengthen combustion, reduce incomplete combustion and make air-fuel ratio more reasonable. However, the technology of reducing flue gas heat loss and recovering flue gas waste heat is still not progressing fast. In order to further improve the thermal efficiency of the kiln and achieve the purpose of saving energy and reducing consumption, recovering flue gas waste heat is also an important energy-saving way. There are usually two ways to recover flue gas waste heat: one is to preheat the workpiece; The other is to preheat the air for combustion. Flue gas preheating workpiece needs to take up a large volume for heat exchange, which is often limited by the workplace (this method can not be used in batch furnaces). Preheating air is a good way to support combustion. Generally arranged on the heating furnace, it can also strengthen combustion, speed up the heating rate of the furnace and improve the thermal performance of the furnace. This not only meets the process requirements, but also can achieve significant comprehensive energy-saving effect. In addition, since 1950s, preheaters for preheating air have been used in industrial furnaces in China. The main forms are tubular, cylindrical radial and cast iron block heat exchangers, but the heat exchange efficiency is low. In 1980s, domestic heat exchangers, such as jet type, jet radiation type and composite table type, were developed one after another, which mainly solved the problem of medium and low temperature waste heat recovery. The recovery of flue gas waste heat below 100 degrees has achieved remarkable results, and the heat exchange efficiency has been improved. However, at high temperature, it is still limited by the material of heat exchanger, with short service life, heavy maintenance workload or high solid cost, which affects its popularization and use. 265438+At the beginning of the 20th century, gongyi city finally developed Ronghua ceramic heat exchanger. Its production process is basically the same as that of kiln furniture, and thermal conductivity and oxidation resistance are the main application properties of the material. Its principle is to place the ceramic heat exchanger near the outlet of the flue with high temperature, without adding cold air and high temperature protection. When the kiln temperature is 1250- 1450℃, the flue outlet temperature should be 1000- 1300℃, and the waste heat recovered by ceramic heat exchanger can reach 450-750℃. Ceramic heat exchanger has been well developed under the limitation of metal heat exchanger, because it solves the problems of corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance and becomes the best heat exchanger for recovering high temperature waste heat. After years of production practice, it shows that the effect of ceramic heat exchanger is good. Its main advantages are good thermal conductivity, high high temperature strength, good oxidation resistance and thermal shock resistance. Long service life, small maintenance, reliable and stable performance and simple operation. It is the best device to recover the waste heat of high temperature flue gas at present. At present, ceramic heat exchangers can be used in major hot kilns in metallurgy, nonferrous metals, refractories, chemicals, building materials and other industries, and are making great contributions to the cause of energy conservation and emission reduction in the world.

Environmental cost, also known as environmental degradation cost, refers to the cost of environmental pollution caused by economic activities leading to the decline of the quality of environmental services. The cost of environmental degradation is divided into environmental protection expenditure and environmental degradation cost. Environmental protection expenditure refers to the value actually paid for environmental protection, and environmental degradation cost refers to the value of environmental pollution loss and the value that should be paid for environmental protection. The natural environment mainly provides living space and ecological efficiency, which has the characteristics of long-term repeated use and is similar to the use characteristics of fixed assets. In this way, the cost of environmental degradation caused by economic activity pollution is the cost of environmental degradation, which also has the nature of "depreciation of fixed assets"

Edit the chemical curing agent of sludge in this section.

Especially the solidification of river sludge or urban sewage sludge. With the construction of a large number of urban sewage treatment plants, the sewage treatment capacity and sludge output are increasing. Sludge contains a large number of microorganisms, pathogens, heavy metals and organic pollutants, and its water content is generally above 80%. Improper handling will cause secondary pollution. At present, the main methods of sludge treatment are agriculture, incineration and landfill, and a large amount of sludge is discarded without any treatment. Due to the high water content of sludge, poor soil mechanical properties and high pollutant content, all the current treatment methods have problems such as environmental pollution, high treatment cost and easy to cause landfill engineering geological disasters. Whether sludge can be buried depends on the geotechnical properties of sludge or the mixture of sludge and other additives. When silt is buried, it is required that the shear strength of vane is ≥25kpa and the unconfined compressive strength is ≥50kpa. After conventional dehydration, the water content of sludge is above 80%, and the shear strength of serrated plate is

1979, China passed the first environmental protection law-People's Republic of China (PRC) Environmental Protection Law (for Trial Implementation). Since the reform and opening up, China has gradually formed a legal system of environmental protection. 1973, the first environmental standard was born in China-the trial standard of industrial "three wastes" discharge. By the end of 1998, China had issued 4 12 national environmental standards over the years, and there are currently 36 1 items, including 80 environmental quality standards, 80 pollutant discharge standards, 230 environmental monitoring method standards, 29 environmental standard sample standards and/kloc-environmental basic standards. At the same time, by 1998, China * * * had promulgated 6 environmental protection laws, 9 environmental resources laws, 34 administrative regulations on environmental protection, more than 90 regulations of environmental protection departments, more than 900 local regulations and local government regulations on environmental protection, and 6 military regulations on environmental protection, and concluded and participated in 37 international environmental conventions, initially forming an environmental protection legal system with China characteristics and becoming a China society. In particular, in order to meet the objective needs of economic development and environmental protection, the NPC Standing Committee adopted the decisions on amending the Law on Prevention and Control of Air Pollution and the Law on Prevention and Control of Water Pollution in 1995 and 1996 respectively. 1In March, 1997, the revised Criminal Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) added the crime of damaging the protection of environmental resources. The basic principles of China's environmental protection law are: coordinated development of economic construction and environmental protection; Prevention first, combining prevention with treatment; Polluter pays; The government is responsible for environmental quality; Rely on the masses to protect the environment. From June 5438 to October 2002, the Law of the People's Republic of China on Environmental Impact Assessment was promulgated, which provided a scientific basis for project decision-making, project site selection, product positioning, construction planning and scale, and environmental monitoring and management after completion.

International Wetlands Day February 2nd is the International Wetlands Day. According to the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance Especially as Waterfowl Habitat signed by 197 1 in Ramsar, Iran, wetlands refer to "permanent or temporary swamps, peatlands or static or flowing waters, or fresh water, brackish water or saline water bodies, including water bodies less than 6m at low tide". Wetlands play an important role in protecting biodiversity, especially the survival and migration of birds. World Water Day 1993 65438+ 10/8, the 47th UN General Assembly made a resolution to designate March 22nd as World Water Day every year. The resolution invites governments to carry out some specific activities on this day according to their national conditions to raise public awareness. Starting from 1994, the China Municipal Government changed the time of "China Water Week" to March 22nd-28th every year, which made the publicity activities more prominent on the theme of "World Water Day". World Meteorological Day 1960, the World Meteorological Organization designated March 23rd as "World Meteorological Day" to raise public awareness.
