Solution Of Environmental Safety Issues At A Zinc Plant

The paper updates the Plant experience in the development and implementation of an advanced environmentally friendly zinc production technology complying with the technological and economic level of producers in the world and the standards of maximum permissible gas emissions stipulated by the Russian legislation. General water recycling engineering allowed to ensure 95.6% water rotation level. All solid wastes formed during treating zinc concentrate are processed into marketable products or semiproducts and sold. As a result of implementing innovation techniques production at the Chelyabinsk Zinc Plant is non-waste.
