How the Industrial circulating water affects its surrounding
In order to greet the XXIV Olympic Winter Games and improve the environmental quality around Beijing and Tianjin city, HBIS decided to withdraw all its steel capacity from Zhangjiakou area, and implement the project of HBIS industry upgrade and Xuangang capacity transfer in Leting Economic Development Zone of Tangshan City, for which it was essential that the supporting water system achieves zero discharge of industrial circulating water.
