The chemical industry encompasses enterprises and institutions engaged in the production and development of chemical industrial products. It permeates every aspect, making it an indispensable and vital component of the national economy. Its development on a sustainable path holds significant practical importance for the economic and social progress of humanity.

Chemical industry holds a significant position in the national economies of various countries, serving as the foundational and pillar industry for many. The development pace and scale of the chemical industry have a direct impact on all sectors of the social economy, with the annual global output value of chemical products exceeding $1.5 trillion. Due to the diverse categories, complex processes, and varied products of the chemical industry, the pollutants emitted during production are numerous, in large quantities, and highly toxic, making it a major polluter. Moreover, at each stage of processing, storage, use, and waste disposal, chemical products can generate substantial amounts of toxic substances, affecting the ecological environment and posing risks to human health. The pursuit of sustainable development in the chemical industry carries significant practical importance for the economic and social development of humanity.
