China News Service Lanzhou, October 15 (Hou Zhixiong, Wei Jianjun, Yan Jiao) "It's really uncomfortable to spray disinfectant on the site of the operation where disinfectant must be sprayed..." Speaking of the first step in disposing of hazardous waste , Wang Junlong, deputy director of the disposal workshop of Gansu Jinchuang Lufeng Environmental Technology Co., Ltd., expressed his solemn expression, "To be honest, the work is indeed hard, but... we have to bear it, there is no way out."
Gansu Science and Technology Group belongs to Gansu Jinchuang Lufeng Environmental Technology Co., Ltd. (Gansu Hazardous Waste Disposal Center), is responsible for the collection and disposal of medical waste in Lanzhou City and its surrounding areas, and is also responsible for the emergency rescue and disposal of hazardous waste (including hazardous waste in urban domestic waste) and hazardous chemicals and other pollution accidents.
"Terminator" of hazardous waste related to the epidemic
"This is the 'terminator' of hazardous waste, the last line of defense for epidemic prevention and control." Liu Chen, secretary of the Party branch and chairman of Gansu Jinchuang Lufeng Environmental Technology Co., Ltd., said that during the epidemic prevention and control period, the company, as the only medical waste disposal enterprise in Lanzhou, has always been on the front line of epidemic prevention and control to ensure the safe and timely transportation and treatment of medical waste related to the epidemic, "all medical waste should be collected and daily cleared."
Recently, in the Jinchuang Lufeng disposal workshop, landfill operator Zhu Zhenhua always rushes to do the most risky and most difficult medical waste feeding work. Each shift was carried and 400 boxes of medical waste turnover boxes weighing about 10 kilograms. After one shift, I was so tired that I couldn’t straighten my waist. "Although everyone has a clear division of labor, when they are really busy, they will take people wherever they need them."
not only that, after finishing his work in charge of shifts, Zhu Zhenhua took the initiative to help clean the medical waste turnover box, help unload the truck, and took the initiative to take on the disinfection work in the isolation area. In mid-September 2021, the company also undertakes the task of treating and ensuring medical waste disposal and guaranteeing people from overseas returning from Gansu Province. He volunteered to stick to the front-line position in epidemic prevention and control for more than 70 days.

As a party member, during the break, Zhu Zhenhua will also take the initiative to chat with colleagues who participated in the isolation work together to understand their ideological status, help them relieve psychological pressure, and actively lead their colleagues to learn the latest document requirements and measures, teach them to wear protective clothing, goggles, , etc. correctly, so that they can treat the epidemic scientifically and reduce unnecessary panic.
Faced with the severe epidemic prevention and control situation and the growing demand for disposal of hazardous waste, Wang Junlong faced a very important work task and responsibility. It is necessary to ensure that the disposal workshop successfully completes the safe disposal of medical waste, but also ensure that all major production indicators are completed. At the same time, it is responsible for shortening the maintenance period and ensuring epidemic prevention and control tasks.
At the peak of hazardous waste treatment, "the sleeves of the protective suits are like a faucet is turned on." Wang Junlong said that many people's inner thighs are full of rashes, and walking with a fork is not easy, "Our people are too strong." In mid-July this year, when the epidemic in Lanzhou was at its worst, nearly 90 tons of various medical waste were processed every day, which was a test of emergency response and everyone's perseverance.
"How many times have you passed by your house, but you haven't entered." Wang Junlong took a breath, "I only posted a circle of friends that day." He said that there are many situations like him in the factory. Not only are they closed-loop work in the factory, sometimes even taking a shower becomes a luxury, "I'm busy until late at night, and it's so smelly that I don't wash. After washing, I can't fall asleep. I have to get up at 6 o'clock and put on protective clothing in advance."
In 2021, Wang Junlong faced the sudden increase in production capacity. He and his team workshop strengthened process adjustments, and the incineration and disposal workshop, high-temperature cooking workshop, and microwave disposal workshop operated simultaneously, solving the problem that medical waste cannot be disposed of in a timely manner during peak transportation.
is nervous and "eat dry and squeezed all"
In the view of Zhao Huqun, deputy general manager of Jinchuang Lufeng, epidemic prevention and control has always been nervous and emergency response may be initiated at any time. In the next step, we must use high-tech to achieve resource-based treatment and provide housekeeper-style technical services to waste-producing enterprises, including hazardous waste classification, packaging, collection, transportation, and disposal.

Zhao Huqun said that in the next step, the company will start from the overall situation of harmless disposal and resource utilization of solid waste in Gansu Province, and consider from top to bottom, from multiple levels and dimensions such as environmental management, technology research and development, network construction, resource utilization, and harmless disposal, and ultimately achieve the purpose of integrated management of hazardous waste.
"If the packaging of the epidemic-related materials is damaged, there will be risks and concerns." Wang Youzhi, deputy chief engineer of Jinchuang Lufeng who is in charge of production safety, said that they have formulated the emergency plan , and the factory management has also been refined, and it must be strictly cleaned and disinfected. As long as employees are at risk, they will not go home in the factory. At present, the high-standard sewage treatment plant project has been put into trial operation and must be "fed dry and squeezed all".
State-owned enterprises take responsibility for the "end" defense line
Since the outbreak of the new round of epidemic in Lanzhou, party members, cadres and employees of Jinchuang Lufeng have been arranged and deployed in accordance with the arrangements and deployments of Gansu Science and Technology Group, and drove against the targeted traffic in designated hospitals, large-scale nucleic acid testing institutions, isolation points, medical and nursing closed-loop management hotels, streets and checkpoints, and promptly transferred and disposal of medical waste related to the epidemic, reflecting the responsibility that state-owned enterprises should have.
Jinchuang Lufeng is responsible for the collection, transportation and disposal of medical waste in 1,724 medical institutions in Lanzhou. This fight against the epidemic has once again assumed the important responsibility of Lanzhou's "terminator" of medical abortion related to the epidemic. At present, the company's hazardous waste disposal approval scale is 26,400 tons/year.
"The company is not big, but it bears a heavy social responsibility." When talking about the responsibility of state-owned enterprises, Liu Chen's expression was firm. Jinchuang Lufeng currently has 132 people. When the epidemic is serious, 120 people in the company and nearly 160 other temporary cooperative personnel will be on the scene for a long time. After several epidemic prevention and control, employees have developed the habit of "the epidemic is severe, return to the factory immediately". Although they have to overcome many difficulties and sometimes complain, Jinchuang Lufeng has no way out and must stick to it!
was silent for a moment. Liu Chen said that Jinchuang Lufeng will continue to improve the medical waste disposal mechanism and guard the "end" defense line. "If everyone stays at home, who will deal with the medical waste from various hospitals in Lanzhou? Where will the epidemic-related medical waste caused by epidemic prevention and control be? This is our sacred duty, and we are proud of it." (End)
