Drug production consumes a large amount of raw materials and is recognized as a "high-pollution, high-energy-consumption" industry. In consideration of the small amount of emission inventory research in the pharmaceutical industry, firstly, based on the actual monitoring data and production information of typical antibiotic enterprises, the emission factors of various volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were determined using the field measurement method. Then, combined with the activity level information of antibiotics from A to G plant in the same park, the emission factor method was used to calculate and obtain the emissions of each plant, and an emission list was established.

Fenton and Fenton-like reactions employed for oxidative treatment of a typical industrial wastewater generate a large amount of ferric hydroxide sludge which has to be properly disposed at a high cost. This paper presents a simple and cost-effective method for recovering the iron catalyst from the iron hydroxide sludge for oxidative treatment of industrial wastewaters. The sludge was dewatered, dried and baked at 350-400 degrees C for 20-30 min; the residual solids were dissolved in sulfuric acid to form the reusable catalyst for Fenton and Fenton-like reactions.
