The most problematic issue in the carbon industry is Pollution. We have seen in the past goverment has shut down plants due to rising pollution from carbon companies. China last year has shut down electrode making companies and steel making companies which contribute pollution and instructed to switch to newer technology which produces less pollution.
However, over the years the ICL is one of the few Companies to go beyond the required norms for the betterment of the environment. Conservation of energy and water resources has forever been a key objective for the Company. Moreover, the installation of high-end Gas Cleaning Systems has ensured that industrial pollution is kept to a minimum and is causing no damage to the environment.
