Continued effort to improve our environment
Wastewater management
LG Energy Solution manages the water quality targets at business sites and monitors the levels rigorously to reduce water pollutant emissions. It has resulted in a significant decline in wastewater. To comply with the water quality management targets at business sites and minimize the environmental impact caused by wastewater, we apply various measures, such as developing wastewater concentration technology, improving the existing wastewater treatment system, and upgrading the management of water pollutants.
Air quality management
LG Energy Solutions is steadily working hard to reduce air pollutant emissions. To minimize the impact of pollutants on the air, we are adequately responding to stricter air environment regulations, carrying out various improvements such as continuous environmental monitoring using cutting-edge technology, and eliminating odors from business sites by controlling odor sources.
Industrial waste management
In order to minimize the environmental impact of industrial waste, LG Energy Solution has established a waste reduction strategy that curtails the amount of waste generated and achieves net-zero waste through recycling. We established a closed-loop process that limits environmental pollution to our full extent and circulates more resources than ever.
[Closed-Loop Process]
By recycling scraps from the manufacturing process and waste batteries that cannot be reused, we increase the rate of resource circulation, contributing to the conservation of our environment.
