Jiangsu's view of chemical industry, renovation and promotion

Recently, Xinhua Daily published two related articles on Xinhua Times, namely "Especially to Enhance Spirit and Spirit at Critical Times" and "Not only to Improve and Improve, but also to Prevent"Talking about Color Change". It is pointed out that the chemical industry must be treated rationally and scientifically, and must be dialectically historical in an all-round way. Chemical industry is a pillar industry in Jiangsu Province, and also an important basic and supportive industry in China. For Jiangsu, to improve the chemical industry is not to stop developing chemical industry, but to develop chemical industry with high quality, high efficiency and high safety. The Standing Committee of Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee held a meeting on 8 April to discuss the plan for improving the safety and environmental protection of chemical industry in Jiangsu Province. It was proposed that the chemical industry in Jiangsu Province should be treated historically, comprehensively and dialectically, adhere to practical and classified measures, and systematically promote the improvement of chemical industry in Jiangsu Province. Not long ago, the main leaders of Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee emphasized in Lianyungang inspection and investigation that on the one hand, small chemical industries with low safety factor and heavy environmental pollution should be eliminated completely with the will of strong men to break wrists, on the other hand, they should not go to the extreme of "discoloration". This view is full of dialectical thinking, and has a strong guiding significance for improving the safety and environmental protection of chemical industry in Jiangsu Province.
After the particularly serious explosion accident of 3.21 in Xiangshui, all parties concerned were deeply reminded and deeply rethinked. Provinces and municipalities introduced measures from various levels such as emergency, symptomatic treatment and radical cure. Comprehensive measures were taken, and the "Safety and Environmental Protection Renovation and Promotion Plan for Chemical Industry" was one of the "Combination Fist". At the same time, there are various voices in society. Some people "talk about changing color", feel that since the chemical industry is so dangerous, why not say "no" thoroughly, once closed, once and for all. Others disagree that individual accidents are only individual events of individual enterprises, and there is no need to "react excessively", act excessively, and so on. The voices remind us that we must treat chemical industry rationally and scientifically, and that we must dialectically analyze history in an all-round way. Chemical industry is a pillar industry in Jiangsu Province, and also an important basic and supportive industry in China. Small to personal clothing, food, shelter and transportation, large to the development of oil products, coke, integrated circuits, aluminum and other industries, are inseparable from the support of the chemical industry. If the chemical industry is simply abandoned, the autonomy of industrial development, the competitiveness of national development and the sustainability of economic development will be greatly weakened.
Some people "talk about color change" because of the potential environmental and safety risks of the chemical industry. However, potential risks are not equal to factual risks. Whether developing chemical industry or other industries, the way to prevent risks is not to shut them down, but to implement preventive measures better, more detailed and more closely. Simply saying "no" because of the risk is the same as "throwing out the baby and the bath water together", which is also irresponsible and lack of responsibility. Practice has proved that the safety of chemical industry depends on the absolute reliability and strict implementation of production equipment, safety measures, personnel training, system guarantee and supervision measures. In some places, accidents and dangers occur in the chemical industry, and various reasons can be found through in-depth analysis. For example, some places do not have the advantages and conditions to undertake the transfer of chemical industry, lack of chemical industry workers with a certain knowledge reserve and skills training, and lack of treatment equipment and capacity for hazardous chemical wastes. They can still build chemical industry parks for short-term interests, which should be resolutely closed down and thoroughly rectified. For example, chemical production in some places is at the low end of the industrial chain, with low safety factor, heavy environmental pollution, low added value of products and high potential risks. If they are allowed to develop extensively without improvement, indulge in "low-end lock-in", they may bring great hidden dangers, and even implicate those high-quality and high-end chemical industries. For example, some local chemical industries had a good foundation in the past, but because of the aging of plant equipment, the new development of related industries and the new requirements of environmental protection, they could not keep up with the pace of the times for a while, but as long as they were upgraded, they could meet the standards. For such enterprises, they could not simply "cut all the pieces" or "one pot end". At the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee of the CPC held on April 8, Jiangsu Province proposed that "the importance of renovating and upgrading the chemical industry in Jiangsu should be recognized from the perspective of implementing new development concepts", "practical and realistic, and classified measures should be taken to speed up the elimination of chemical parks and enterprises with low safety factor and serious pollution and promote the chemical industry in Jiangsu Province by implementing differentiated and precise control measures. At the level of development, we should make better use of the thinking of rule of law and market-oriented means to propel regulation and upgrading in accordance with the rules and regulations. This shows that, for Jiangsu, the improvement of chemical industry is not to stop developing chemical industry, but to develop chemical industry with high quality, high efficiency and high safety.
Especially at the critical moment, we should boost our spirit
