As the key emission reduction targets of the Eco-Environment Protection Bureau, VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) are implemented in some key regions and key industries. The cities in major provinces have introduced VOCs emission policies, especially for some VOCs. The source of industrial enterprises, requiring them to introduce VOCs online monitoring system.
