This closed loop plating facility and the CASTion zero-discharge
flash distillation wastewater and chemistry recovery system not only resulted
in appreciable cost savings, but also brought the company the Governor of
Massachusetts Green Seal award for service to the state in its drive to
improve the environment.
Conclusion
It is imperative that, while the government wants to promote
the economy, it should also support the remedial measures taken towards
sustaining the economy through implementation of pollution control measures in
the industry. Like two sides of a coin where one side reflects the value and
other side exhibits the Ashoka pillar, which is the symbol of pride of nation
the nation also has two sides; i) Economy; ii) Environment. If the environment
is not taken care of, then the economy would vanish.
Though the industrial units should be held responsible for
polluting the environment and delaying the implementation of the zero-discharge
system. Since most of the industrialist were agrarian, and most of them have
not had enough education, these people were unaware of environmental problems
that could arise due to industrial pollution. The lack of awareness, have
forced them to pay no attention towards environmental safety and sustainable
development.
Under the situation, it is imperative that the State and
Central governments take immediate steps for necessary intervention to help out
the industry to implement Zero-discharge system compulsory in order to avoid
further environmental degradation and provide environmental security,
industrial growth.
