The impact of zinc oxide

 As zinc oxide,zinc oxide is widely used as an additive in chemical production, medicine, feed and other products. Although the application in various products follows the relevant national regulations, the impact of zinc oxide itself cannot be underestimated. Regarding the influence of zinc oxide, the following points must be paid attention to.

1. Impact on the human body:

Zinc oxide is a non-toxic, odorless white powder, which is not harmful to the human body. However, if zinc oxide dust is inhaled by the human body, it will cause certain damage to the human respiratory system. Therefore, when working in the zinc oxide factory, the staff must take relevant precautions and safety protection measures, and pay attention to personal hygiene.

2. Impact on the environment:

In recent years, all mankind has been facing various environmental problems, such as climate warming, rising atmosphere, constant typhoons, melting glaciers, etc. The reasons for this environmental deterioration are complicated. Of course, the pollution caused by human production is the biggest. s reason.Zinc oxide, as a chemical additive, if it is cleaned in the environment without treatment, it will corrode the landform, affect the vegetation, accelerate climate warming, and cause harm to the environment.

3. Impact on water quality:

In the daily production ofzinc oxide compounds that have not been chemically treated, relevant follow-up treatments should be done, and untreated sewage containing zinc oxide substances cannot be directly discharged, which will increase the pollution of water sources.

The above is about the impact of zinc oxide. In the use of zinc oxide, these impacts must be taken seriously, so as to avoid harm to the human body and the environment, and to use resources reasonably.
