Avenue forward · From the Xiangjiang River to the Yangtze River 丨 "World Lead Capital" green rise

Author:Hunan Daily Time:2022.08.31

On August 18th, at the intersection of the Xiangjiang River, Liling River, and salt lake, there was a mining smelting site more than 3,000 years ago.

On August 17, the environmental protection workshop of the lead smelting factory of Wushan Mountains in Hunan, Hunan, to monitor the operation of the equipment.

The Xiangjiang River has many bends, entered Hengyang Realm, and ushered in a Pingzhi river in Wushan Mountain in Changning. The Ling River hurried south, and he rushed into the embrace of the Xiangjiang River here.

At the intersection of the two water, the river water is clear, and the water plants that are swinging, snails lying on the moss. On the banks on the shore, the Western Zhou Dynasty mining sites were excavated a few years ago, and the smelting history of Shuikou Mountain was promoted to 3000 years ago.

The fire boiled for thousands of years, creating the "world lead capital" of Shuikou Mountain. In 10 years, there is only a short time scale in the historical long river, but it is enough to let the land that is associated with mineral smelting to get rid of the dilemma of "exhausted city decline"; let the "mother river" of raising one side reappear, and reproduce vitality and vitality of vitality and vitality. Essence

1. "wastewater" to raise goldfish

The colorful goldfish in one cylinder does not seem to appear in the workshop of a smelter. Duan Lin put a handful of fish food into the water, and the goldfish swinged tails.

"The water in the fish tank is the reincarnation water after deep treatment of lead smelting wastewater, as clean as tap water." Duan Lin is the deputy director of the environmental protection workshop of the lead smelter of the lead smelter of Shuikou Metal Group Co., Ltd. "Wastewater" to raise goldfish, can it be raised well, and directly inspect the results of environmental protection work.

(Located on the Xiangjiang River, Shuikou Mountain is an important lead zinc producing place in my country. In the past 10 years, environmental governance and ecological restoration have been continuously improved here, and the quality of ecological environment has been significantly improved. Except for the signature, this version of the photo is a reporter from the Hunan Daily. Tian Chao)

Under the combination and nourishment of the Xiangjiang River and the Ling River, Shuikou Mountain was known as Feng Shui Treasure Land for a long time. This is not false. The underground of Shuikou Mountain contains more than 20 types of mineral resources such as lead, zinc, gold, silver, and copper.

The history of mining and smelting in Shuikou Mountain originated from the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Han and Tang dynasties, and the late Qing Dynasty. From the beginning of the Mizukou Mountain Lead -Zinc Mining Bureau in 1896, to the period of 1916, the lead and zinc production of Shuikoushan accounted for one -third of the world's total output, ranking first in the world, and established the position of "world lead capital". Become "the cradle of China's lead zinc industry".

Freshly due to mine, it is also trapped by mine. Duan Lin remembered that when he was a child, he walked into the third factory where his father worked. This scene impressed him and even affected his life choices. Ten years ago, Duan Lin returned to his hometown after graduating from the University of the University to give full play to the director of environmental engineering and joined a vigorous battle against pollution. In the new era, the concept of new development. The 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has incorporated the construction of ecological civilization into the "five -in -one" layout of the "five -in -one" socialist cause with Chinese characteristics. Green development has become the direction of industrial reform.

"In the past ten years, we have shut down 7 companies such as copper smelter, second and third factories, etc., and eliminate a number of backward production capacity and processes." Said Li Jiasheng, deputy general manager of Shuikou Shan Nonferrous Metal Group Co., Ltd. In the past, the company had more than 10,000 employees and tens of thousands of family members. Tortoring a company was to "close" corporate income and livelihood.

While stopping the elimination, we increased the governance investment. "The state has stricter and stricter environmental requirements, and enterprises must also show their determination and responsibility." Since 2012, Shuokoushan Company has invested more than 1 billion yuan and implemented more than 40 heavy metal pollution treatment projects.

Adopting new processes and new equipment, in 2021 and 2012, all the waters and production wastewater of Shuikou Mountains are used. The main heavy metal lead, arsenic, cadmium and emission reduction in industrial wastewater reached more than 80%, and carbon dioxide and industrial smoke and dust reduction reached 90 %above.

"The journey is very painful and difficult, but it is worthwhile to look back." Li Jiasheng was so emotional. Under the pressure of environmental protection, enterprises have gone through the "pain period" to achieve green development, and the overall environment of the industry has become more orderly. Since 2018, Mizukou Shan has achieved annual profit of more than 200 million yuan for four consecutive years, and has removed a hat for 10 years in one fell swoop.

Outside the wall of Shuikou Mountain lead smelting factory, the birds and other birds flew over. In the past 2021, Changning has excellent air quality in 351 days.

2. The return of the fishing village

Along the Xiangjiang River, we walked six or seven kilometers upstream from Songbai community in Shuikou Shan Town. We came to Songyu Community. Bai Yao's sun, pulled a chimney close to the river into a long shadow on the ground.

The owner of this 38 -meter -old chimney is Liu Chunsheng, a resident of Songyu Community. More than 10 years ago, he had a chemical plant and coking plant here.

After the reform and opening up, the township enterprise group with coarse -lead smelting and zinc oxide and zinc sulfate was formed. Changning's Song and Bai, Songyang, Songyu, and Songjiang Town on the other side of the river, spread throughout the miniaturization factory and small smelting plant.

(On August 18th, there was a mining and smelting site in the river of Xiangjiang, Liling River, and Salt Lake in the intersection of the Sanjiang River in Sanyu City, Changning City.

"At that time, there was no awareness of environmental protection. The wastewater was discharged directly. The waste residue was piled up by the river. Everyone was doing this." Liu Chunsheng, who once "made pollution,", later became a member of the "repair environment".

Once the environment is contaminated, it needs to pay a huge price to repair. He remembers that the four or five excavators operated at the same time. The deepest dug was 7 meters, and 30 trucks were delayed a day. In the past few years, more than 100,000 tons of solid waste was dragged from this traditional fishing village.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Hunan has opened a new journey of Xiangjiang Protection and Governance. With the determination of the strong men to break his wrists, the Xiangjiang protection and governance is used as the provincial "key project No. 1". Promote.

Shuikou Mountain area is listed as one of the key rectification areas. 192 heavy metal enterprises in Changning City shutdown and integrated and upgraded 6 large -scale enterprises to curb pollution from the source. The 380,000 tons of arsenic -containing waste residue along the Zengjiaxi and Kangjiaxi line, the centralized waste residue around the Dazhuling Mining Area and the Songyu Community was effectively disposed of, and the pollution treatment and ecological restoration of water and soil were gradually completed.

The hotness of the day slowly retreated. After dinner, people in the Songyu Community always walked towards the river and walked and leisure on the landscape trail. A stone monument with "the old site of pollution and building a green home" stands on the side of the Xiangjiang River, reminding people the stories that happened here.

In the setting sun, the green rivers flowed golden waves. Near the old ferry in Shuikou Shan Town, the local winter swimmers can often be seen all year round.

After walking for more than half an hour, Chen Zaochun hung up a water droplet back to the shore. Chen Zaochun has worked in Shuikou Mountain for 30 years. He told us that the water quality was not good before, and swimming had to run to the place 7 or eight kilometers upstream. Now the Xiangjiang River is getting more and more beautiful.

A set of data can confirm Chen Zaochun's feelings. The water quality of the Changning section of the Xiangjiang River has been increased from the category in 2007 to the current stable type II water quality. The heavy metal cadmium that has exceeded the standard has been reduced to the level of the standard, ensuring the safety of drinking water in the middle and lower reaches of the Xiangjiang River.

3. The new life of "lead capital"

At the eastern end of the Changning section of the Xiangjiang River, the triangle zone at the intersection of the Xiangjiang River and the Linghe River is the plow of Xiaozhou Village.

In 2015, the archeological team of Hunan Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archeology came here to discover the copper smelting slag, crickets, bronze melting parts and other items during the Shang Week period. "Jiangzhou Site" became a new name of plow head.

The land under the feet has a long history. When the villagers were surprised, they were more concerned about the dishes planted on this land.

The location of the plowing mouth, the locals are called a vegetable village. In the past, the sulfur -containing flue from the smelter and chemical factories could make the vegetable leaves in the ground darkened overnight. "Agricultural compensation" has become part of the fixed income of villagers.

(On August 17th, the environmental protection workshop of the lead smelting factory in Shuikou Mountain in Shuikou Mountain in Hunan, the operating conditions of the workers were monitoring the equipment.) Today, the scene of smoke and dust has long been seen, and the vegetable villages have changed from "dare not eat" Eat ", supply is in short supply. "Now strictly manage, the enterprise has entered the park, which is more standard than before," said Chen Bin, director of Xiaozhou Village.

In Shuikou Mountain Economic Development Zone, Mizukou Mountain Nonferrous Metal Group, Zhuye Non -Colored and Ministry of Five Mine Copper Industry, as well as 36 local -scale enterprises, formed a non -ferrous metal industry cluster. Within 107 square kilometers of Shuikou Mountain Town, the environmental pressure is still very large.

In 2014, Zhuzhou Clear Reservoir, which is also the key rectification area of ​​Xiangjiang River protection and governance, was included in the first batch of pilot areas of the first batch of old industrial zones in urban areas. Zhu Ye opened a large migration in the history of China's non -ferrous industry: from the clear pond to Shuikou Mountain, and then a "new Zhuye".

Time, high difficulty, and many people, in exchange for "injury and bones" in exchange for "reborn and bones". The fiery construction scenes and the struggle Zhuye appeared at Hengyang Shuikou Mountain Base 200 kilometers away. However, many people are worried that this will bring severe tests to the water environment of the Xiangjiang River.

"Transfer enterprises cannot transfer pollution." He Xianzhong, general manager of Zhuzhou Smelting Group Co., Ltd., said. The new base of Zhuye, located in Shuikou Mountain, is designed in accordance with the strictest environmental protection standards. Only the upgrade and environmental investment of the emission reduction and emission reduction technology only 2.8 billion yuan, accounting for one -third of the total investment of the project.

For non -ferrous companies, zero emissions of industrial wastewater are not a "hard indicator". The real zero emissions are extremely harsh, which means that after the wastewater generated during the production process is treated, it must be reused until the pollutants are discharged to zero, and the construction difficulty and process complexity have been put on very high requirements. Excluding all difficulties, Zhuye has overcome the pollution acid treatment technology, and takes the lead in the first domestic non -colored industry to achieve zero -emissions of industrial wastewater.

Lead -zinc is a pair of twin brothers, accompanied by gold, silver, copper and other elements. Three large colored enterprises belonging to the Ministry of Word of China Hunan have shortened the "distance" and opened the "door" of the low -carbon circular economy.

"Your slag is my raw material." Yang Daiyao, Minister of the Ministry of Monading and Environmental Protection of Hunan, described it. After the lead refining the leaders of Shuikoushan Company, it contains zinc material to send Zhuye and contain copper materials to the copper industry. The first and tails are connected, divided into labor collaboration, the valuable metal is recycled, and the scum is harmless and comprehensive utilization. In the same industrial park, all non -ferrous metal slag are "dredge and squeezed", which directly creates hundreds of millions of economic benefits each year.

Green Water and Qingshan and Jinshan Yinshan do not contrary. A green and efficient world -class copper lead -zinc comprehensive industrial base is rising, and the development path of a national -level circulation transformation demonstration pilot park is getting clearer.

In June 2021, the Mizukou Mountain Workers Municipal Memorial Hall opened, located on the wide river valley in the Hunan River. The red revolutionary "Baoshan" and the green water of Xiaoxiang reflected each other and made people think about it.

Youth observation

Use youth to do "brush"

Tang Zhaoni (Cultural Commissioner of Hunan Shuikou Metal Metal Group Co., Ltd.)

Speaking of Shuikou Mountain, many people know that she is "world lead." As far as me is concerned, this is a place where I have me and has a constant friendship.

I am the "three generations of ore" in Shuikou Mountain. My ancestors and my father all had a lifetime with Shuikou Shan Mine. When I was a child, I opened the window and saw a tall chimney towering into the cloud. It was a large chimney of the three factories of Mizukou Mountain, which is as high as 148 meters and known as "Asia's highest". I often tell others proudly that my parents are working there.

The chimney is a symbol of industry, and it has become a polluted "image spokesperson." In the past, the coast of the Xiangjiang River was covered with large and small chemical plants and smelting factories. The chimney was emitted with thick smoke and the smell was pungent. My family lives by the river, but rarely opens the windows, because it does not need a day, there is a layer of gray on the window sill.

In 2019, after graduating from college, I chose to return to my hometown after working in other provinces. In the three years of working in Shuikou Shan Company, I have a deeper understanding of Shuikou Mountain: the revolutionary feat of Bayi Miners to Jinggang, Shuikou Shan's "stiffness and cure" butterfly becomes a new reform process, shut down backward production capacity to guard The moving story of Yijiang Biwater ... red and green have become a strong background of "world lead".

This time, as a youth observer of the Hunan Daily, in two days, I made Mizukou Mountain as the center and traveled along the Xiangjiang River all the way to visit the century -old fishing village, ancient ferry, and park enterprises to listen to the stories related to Xiangjiang. During the journey, Xiangjiang always lingered by me. The sun shines on the clear green river, and the diamond -like light is flashing. I can't help but reach out to touch her and feel her crystal and softness.

Today's Shuikou Mountain, the Shili Mining Area is heavy in "green", the blue sky is blue, and the green water is long. I will also use youth to make "brushes" to add a beautiful color to this love land.
