Features: This standard is a guiding standard, applicable to enterprises' cleaner production audits, assessment of cleaner production potential and opportunities, evaluation of cleaner production performance, and the cleaner production performance announcement system. Based on meeting national and local environmental standards, this standard is formulated according to the current industry technology, equipment level, and management level. It is divided into three levels: Level 1 represents advanced international cleaner production standards, Level 2 represents advanced domestic cleaner production standards, and Level 3 represents basic domestic cleaner production standards. With continuous technological advancement and development, this standard will also be revised regularly, generally every three to five years. According to general cleaner production requirements, cleaner production indicators are generally divided into six categories: process and equipment requirements, resource and energy utilization indicators, product indicators, pollutant generation indicators (before end-of-pipe treatment), waste recovery and utilization indicators, and environmental management requirements. Considering the characteristics of the electrolytic aluminum industry, this standard divides cleaner production indicators into five categories: process and equipment requirements, resource and energy utilization indicators, pollutant generation indicators (before end-of-pipe treatment), waste recovery and utilization indicators, and environmental management requirements.
