The sound management of chemicals has become an important chapter in global environmental governance, and China is facing new international situations and challenges. As a new requirement of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee for deepening the battle against pollution, new pollutants control is the primary task of environmental risk management of toxic and harmful chemicals, which is highly consistent with the international goal of sound management of chemicals.
