Design of VOCs whole-process improvement plan of furniture manufacturing industry

Furniture manufacturing is a key industry for VOCs control in China. The industry’s pollution prevention and control level is generally low, and the need for green upgrading is urgent. Due to the lack of technical guidance for the whole-process improvement, such as cleaner production evaluation index system and guidelines on available techniques of pollution prevention and control, current improvement activities of furniture manufacturing enterprises show a certain degree of disorder. This has resulted in a waste of human and financial resources and difficult to achieve good improvement effect. Adhering to the concept of cleaner production and the principle of scientific and accurate pollution control in accordance with the law, a whole-process improvement plan for furniture manufacturing industry was designed from five aspects, i.e. raw and auxiliary material substitution, process control, pollutants collection, pollutants treatment, and environmental management, the technical guidance documents in list type were formed. At last, several suggestions to promote the whole-process improvement of furniture manufacturing industry were put forward, so as to provide technical guidance for the improvement of enterprises’ pollution prevention and control capacity and the supervision and enforcement of environmental management departments.
