Mercury Processing in PVC Production

Article Preview

Abstract:

Mercury is highly toxic heavy metal pollution attracted the attention of the world. This paper analyzes the situation the main industry in mercury use PVC production. Manufacture of battery, electric light, medical equipment in China. Furthermore, it discusses the details of the best technology the use of mercury emissions reduction and mercury control in that industry. The result is that certain technologies such as low mercury. In PVC industry catalyst, as mercury battery, amalgam substituted Mercury and LED light in the electric light source industry, electronics the thermometer and blood pressure in the medical device industry and so on, reduce mercury able to make full use of and emission reduction in risk mercury pollution to the environment.
