Survey of chromium pollution in China

The Chinese Society for Environmental Sciences Committee (CSESC), China's non-governmental environmental protection association, is currently carrying out a survey of chromium pollution throughout China, according to the Interfax news agency. Recommendations will be made on how to deal with this pollution and overcome the problem of large chromium supplies at bankrupt producers. The leather industry is one of the largest consumers of chromium in China, but is not yet clear how the results of the survey will affect chromium supplies to the industry.
