Scope

This standard specifies the discharge limits of water pollutants for bioengineering pharmaceutical enterprises or production facilities. This standard is applicable to the management of water pollutant discharge of existing bioengineering pharmaceutical enterprises or production facilities. This standard is applicable to the environmental impact assessment, environmental protection facility design, completion environmental protection acceptance and water pollutant discharge management of bioengineering pharmaceutical industry construction projects. This standard is applicable to enterprises that use modern biotechnology methods (mainly genetic engineering technology, etc.) to prepare polypeptide and protein drugs, vaccines and other drugs for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. This standard does not apply to manufacturers who use traditional microbial fermentation technology to prepare antibiotics, vitamins and other drugs. Research and development institutions of bioengineering pharmaceuticals can refer to this standard. This standard also applies to the prevention and management of water pollutants in enterprises that use similar bioengineering technologies to prepare veterinary drugs. This standard applies to the discharge of pollutants permitted by law. The site selection of newly established pollution sources and the management of existing pollution sources in special protection areas shall comply with the "Law of the People's Republic of China on Prevention and Control of Air Pollution", "Law of the People's Republic of China on Prevention and Control of Water Pollution", "Law of the People's Republic of China on Marine Environmental Protection" and "Solid State of the People's Republic of China". The Law of the People's Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution by Waste, the Law of the People's Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Radioactive Pollution, and the Law of the People's Republic of China on Environmental Impact Assessment are implemented. The water pollutant discharge control requirements stipulated in this standard are applicable to the discharge behavior of enterprises to environmental water bodies. When an enterprise discharges wastewater into the urban drainage system with a sewage treatment plant, the pollutant discharge control requirements shall be negotiated between the enterprise and the urban sewage treatment plant or implement relevant standards based on its sewage treatment capacity, and reported to the local environmental protection authority for record; urban sewage The treatment plant should ensure that the discharged pollutants meet the requirements of the relevant discharge standards. When a construction project intends to discharge wastewater into the urban drainage system with a sewage treatment plant, the construction unit and the urban sewage treatment plant shall implement the provisions of the preceding paragraph.
