Some smelters of secondary lead suspended operation as environmental supervision of pollutant discharge restarted in Anhui province this week

SHANGHAI, Apr 13 (SMM) – Some smelters of secondary lead suspended operation as environmental supervision of pollutant discharge restarted in Anhui province this week, SMM learned.

The suspensions are expected to affect daily output of secondary lead by 750 mt. Output at a major smelter will be cut by half. Another smelter had to suspend production again after it stopped production in March due to previous environmental inspections.

Normal operation is likely to resume next week as environmental supervision eases, local smelters told SMM.

Separately, some smelters have already stopped production due to technical reforms in Taihe county, north-west of Anhui.
