The noise generated by the Company's production and activities is very low. In April 2022, a third-party testing agencyconducted testing on the production site in accordance with the emission standard for industrial enterprises noise atboundary (GB12348-2008), and the results all met the emission standards.
The speci?c environmental factors affecting the company are as follows
The domestic wastewater generated at the Company's of?ce is treated uniformly by the of?ce building and industrialpark property. After reaching the standard through pre-treatment, it is discharged into the municipal sewage pipenetwork. During the reporting period, third-party testing institutions conducted tests on the wastewater generated bythe Company's production activities in accordance with the "Guangdong Provincial Local Standard Water PollutantDischarge Limits", test results all meeting the discharge standards.
The Company produces relatively small amounts of waste gas from production and activities, the majority beingtin-containing waste gas and non-methane hydrocarbons, which are treated through UV photolysis, activated carbonadsorption devices, air puri?cation equipment, and others. After treatment, the concentration of waste gas emissionsmeets the environmental protection standard "Emission Limits of Air Pollutants" (DB44/27-2001 Level 2 standard) inthe location of the production and operation entity. After a third-party testing agency is commissioned for testing andthe standards are met, the waste is released.
The Company's waste is mainly divided into three categories: recyclable, non-recyclable, and hazardous waste, whichare collected separately and transferred to the renewable resources company for compliance treatment. The Companyveri?es the business quali?cations of the renewable resources company every year and signs relevant recyclingcontracts with it; In addition, the Company pays relevant management fees to the property every month to ensure thatthe waste generated by the company does not have an impact on the environment.
