With the rapid development of industry, the problem of environmental protection is increasingly concerned. A series of environmental problems, such as waste gas, waste water and noise, may arise in the production process of main and auxiliary connecting rod forging. This paper will discuss the environmental protection problems in the production of main and auxiliary connecting rod forging and its solutions.
Environmental protection problems in the production of main and auxiliary connecting rod forging
Exhaust gas emission: In the production process of the main and auxiliary connecting rod forging, the melting, forging and heat treatment of the metal will produce exhaust gas, including smoke, particulate matter and harmful gases. The discharge of these waste gases will pollute the atmosphere.
Wastewater treatment: The cooling water and cleaning wastewater generated in the forging process will pollute the water body if it is discharged directly without proper treatment.
Noise pollution: The forging equipment will produce high decibel noise during operation, which will affect the surrounding environment and workers’ health.
Solid waste: solid waste such as scraps and waste molds generated in the production process, if not properly handled, will occupy a lot of land resources and cause environmental pollution.
Solutions and measures
Waste gas treatment: The use of high-efficiency dust collector to collect and treat dust and particulate matter to reduce exhaust emissions. For harmful gases, catalytic combustion or activated carbon adsorption can be used for treatment.
Wastewater treatment: Establish sewage treatment facilities, filter, precipitate and biochemical treatment of cooling water and cleaning wastewater, and ensure that wastewater meets discharge standards before discharge.
Noise control: The forging equipment with low noise is selected, and the high noise equipment is soundproofed and muffled. At the same time, workers are provided with protective equipment such as earplugs to protect their hearing health.
Solid waste treatment: sorting and recycling of scraps, waste molds, etc. Waste that cannot be reused should be handed over to a qualified waste treatment company for treatment.
Energy saving and emission reduction: The use of advanced technology and equipment to improve energy efficiency and environmental protection level of forging production. For example, the use of electric furnaces instead of oil furnaces for metal smelting can reduce greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide.
Green production management: Establish a green production management system and strengthen enterprise environmental awareness. Conduct environmental training for employees to increase their environmental awareness and participation. At the same time, strengthen cooperation and communication with the government, industry associations and environmental protection organizations to jointly promote the green transformation of the production of main and auxiliary connecting rod forgings.
This paper discusses the environmental protection problems and solutions in the production of main and auxiliary connecting rod forging, and draws the following conclusions and suggestions:
Strengthen the publicity and implementation of environmental protection laws and regulations, and improve the environmental awareness and self-discipline of enterprises. Enterprises should consciously abide by relevant laws and regulations and actively fulfill their environmental protection responsibilities.
Increase the research and development and application of environmental protection technology, and promote advanced environmental protection technology and equipment. The energy consumption and emission of main and auxiliary connecting rod forging production are reduced through technological progress, and the production efficiency and environmental protection level are improved.
Establish a sound green evaluation system and encourage enterprises to carry out green product certification. Provide policy support and market advantages for enterprises that meet environmental protection requirements, and promote the green development of the entire industry.
