According to the plant's public
relations department, Shahdad Hemmatian, director of environment at the
complex, said, "We believe that in order to deal with possible
contaminants and monitor areas with the potential of contamination and the
release of pollutants to the environment, we must implement ISO 14000 and
HSE-MS standard environment management systems."
He added that in order to meet these
standards, based on the strategic objectives of the organization, the plant has
defined projects to save the environment by treating its wastewater output.
