The bad effects of zinc oxide

     Zinc oxide, as a single zinc oxide, is widely used as an additive in chemical production, food processing and other products, but its own impact cannot be underestimated, especially for industry practitioners. The following points are about The influence of zinc oxide must be paid enough attention.

1. Zinc oxide affects the human body
In many chemical production industries, in the face of many corrosive chemicals, operators must strictly follow the operating standards, and zinc oxide is one of them. Therefore, the operator must take safety precautions before operation and use to avoid physical contact with zinc oxide powder.
2. Zinc oxide affects the environment
In recent years, all mankind has generally faced various environmental problems, such as climate warming, rising atmosphere, continuous typhoons, melting glaciers, etc. The factors that cause such severe environmental changes are complex. Of course, the first thing that bears the brunt is the impact of human production and life on the environment. Pollution. As a chemical additive, if zinc oxide is excluded from the environment without treatment, it will not only corrode the landform and affect the vegetation, but also accelerate climate warming and form an irreversible airflow.
3. Zinc oxide affects water quality
Water is the source of life. Mankind has always made a lot of efforts and sacrifices in protecting water resources. Of course, these efforts have also been rewarded well, and protection of water resources needs to make persistent efforts. The zinc oxide compound that has not been chemically treated should be followed up in the daily production, and the untreated sewage containing zinc oxide substances cannot be directly discharged into the sewage. This not only expands the scope of water pollution, but also interacts with the atmosphere. The other gases in the reactor react, causing waste of resources.
Therefore, when using zinc oxide, these effects must be paid attention to, so as to avoid harm to the human environment, etc., and it must be used reasonably.
