中国加强食品、酒类、屠宰等行业水污染物排放管控

Core Viewpoint - The Ministry of Ecology and Environment of China, in collaboration with the State Administration for Market Regulation, has released new national water pollutant discharge standards for the food processing, slaughtering and meat processing, and alcoholic beverage manufacturing industries to enhance pollution control and environmental risk management [1][2]. Group 1: New Standards Released - Three new water pollutant discharge standards have been issued: the Food Processing Industry Water Pollutant Discharge Standard (GB46817—2025), the Slaughtering and Meat Processing Industry Water Pollutant Discharge Standard (GB13457—2025), and the Alcoholic Beverage Manufacturing Industry Water Pollutant Discharge Standard (GB19821—2025) [1]. - These industries are crucial for the national economy and people's livelihoods, and the existing standards have shown increasing inadequacies in addressing current environmental management needs [1]. Group 2: Focus on Specific Industries - The new standards specifically target sub-industries with high wastewater discharge, setting differentiated control measures based on unit product discharge volumes to promote refined pollution management [2]. - The Alcoholic Beverage Manufacturing Standard includes eight control items, with additional parameters for beer production, such as total nitrogen and color, aimed at preventing water body eutrophication and enhancing pollution control [2].
