ABOUTTHEGROUPThe business of the Group focuses on (i) gold mine hazardous waste treatment; and (ii) recycling and extracting therefrom resources with economic value for sale.Our upstream customers mainly engaged us to provide treatment services for cyanide tailings, which is a kind of gold mine hazardous waste resulting from smelting of gold. These cyanide tailings consist of cyanide, which is one of the only few chemical reagents that will dissolve gold in water. Cyanide is a toxic substance and can be lethal if ingested or inhaled in sufficient amounts. Gold mining companies employ stringent risk management systems to prevent injury or damage from the use of cyanide. Cyanide in mining solutions is collected, either be recycled or disposed, after gold is removed. Due to the restrictions on technical expertise and cost consideration, gold smelting companies under gold mining companies engage gold mine hazardous waste treatment companies, like us, to collect the cyanide tailings from them and pay the corresponding treatment fee. In our operation process, we are capable of detoxifying the gold mine hazardous wastes. Further, we are able to extract resources with economic value from gold mine hazardous wastes, and pyrite concentrate and gold-bearing pyrite concentrate are the major recycled products extracted, which can be used for the production of sulphur and sulphuric acid that can be applied in various industrial process. We usually sell our recycled products to our downstream customers which are chemical manufacturing companies and trading companies of chemicals.

Subsequent to the inspection, assessors generally issue a written report to us on the same day, which generally contains, among other things, materials which were inspected by the assessors and an overall result indicating whether we have achieved the compliance standard as set out in the Index System. Looking ahead, the Group will continue to refine its waste reduction measures and disclose relevant results when appropriate.Wastewater ManagementWastewater is generated from surface runoff, vehicles washing and other daily production operations. The Group takes appropriate measures to avoid pollution and blockage of public drains and sewers. Production facilities are equipped with production circulation pools which all polluted wastewater generated during the production process can be recycled and not discharged. Domestic sewage is treated by the integrated sewage treatment station in production facilities and then be used for greening and dust reduction within the production facilities without discharge. During the Reporting Period, a total of 391,578 tonnes of wastewater was reused. The pollutants have also met the discharge standards of the Wastewater Quality Standards for Discharge to Municipal Sewers (《污水排入城市下水道水質標準》). In addition, we have also applied for and obtained the pollution discharge permit issued by the local Ecology and Environment Bureau for the Group’s factories.Noise ControlNoise comes from various waste handling activities and the operation of machinery and equipment. As our projects may affect nearby communities, reducing noise nuisance is also an important part of pollution mitigation. Noise producing machinery is arranged indoors and away from boundary of the production facilities to minimise the impact of noise on the surrounding environment. Further, we set up sound insulation hold for high-noise machinery to inhibit the noise generated by mechanical vibration from spreading and sound insulation doors and windows for production compartments. Noise generated from our business operations is in compliance with the Emission Standard for Industrial Enterprises Noise at Boundary (《工業企業廠界環境噪聲排放標準》).Natural ResourcesThe Group recognises the importance of efficient resources consumption and continuously aims at streamlining its operations to develop an energy-efficient culture. The principal types of resources utilised by the Group in the operation and management of production facility and offices during the Reporting Period, and the measures undertaken by the Group to promote efficient usage are discussed below:24 HONGCHENGENVIRONMENTALTECHNOLOGYCOMPANYLIMITED ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 20232023年環境、社會及管治報告能源使用及效益電力對辦公室和生產設施之營運攸關重要，亦為能源使用之主要來源。

近年來，極端天氣如強風和高降雨量以及潮汐和洪水災害成為全球的焦點，物流和供應鏈特別容易受到影響。

暴雨、海平面上升和洪水災害可能對建築物、倉庫和儲存貨物等資產造成嚴重破壞，從而造成經濟損失。

我們的供應商均位於中國，倘供應商遇到極端天氣狀況（如水災），我們可能面臨供應鏈中斷的間接影響。

大雨或持續降雨造成的嚴重水災或對我們的業務和環境土地污染造成重大影響，惟我們已制定應急預案和程序，以減少極端天氣造成的風險，董事會將不時檢討並改善應急機制。

雖然持續高溫可能導致電力消耗增加，惟我們已採取節能措施以管理此種風險。

儘管氣候變化帶來的影響超出我們的控制範圍，然而由於氣候變化已被視為未來五年世界面臨的最重大風險之一，本集團認為，各持份者應共同努力應對氣候變化，為減緩氣候變化盡力的同時，亦極力減低其對業務運作構成的影響。

近年來，世界各地的變革步伐加快，使我們更能明白加快轉型至低碳經濟的重要性。

本集團計劃響應各地政府倡議，並跟隨各地政府的減排要求設定減排目標。

我們致力於不斷提高能源效率，利用專業知識，不斷尋求進步，推動現場效率改進，維持高效管理支援，並保障本集團的聲譽。

多年來，我們一直在把握不同的機遇來拓展業務，加速轉型和使本集團邁向智能化及更環保，使員工和產品使用者更安全（如自動化、使用更多網上會議電子平台以減低交通運輸所產生的碳排放）。

這些措施使我們業務營運的可持續性得以增加，並履行我們對資源管理和環境保護的承諾。

Climate ChangeClimate change is one of the biggest global challenges faced by the society nowadays. We must act now and proactively prepare for the related impacts of climate change on our business. In recent years, extreme weather, such as strong winds and heavy rainfall, as well as tides and floods, have become the focus around the world. Logistics and supply chains are particularly vulnerable. Heavy rainfall, rising sea levels and floods can cause serious damage to assets such as buildings, warehouses and goods in storage which results in material financial losses. Our suppliers are all located in the PRC. We may face indirect impacts of supply chain disruptions if our suppliers experience extreme weather conditions, such as flooding. Severe flooding from heavy or continuous rainfall could have significant impacts on our business and land pollution, but we have formulated contingency plans and procedures to reduce the risks caused by extreme weather and the Board will review and improve the contingency mechanisms from time to time. Although continuous high temperatures may result in increased electricity consumption, we have implemented energy-saving measures to manage this risk. Even though the impacts of climate change are beyond our control, as climate change is considered to be one of the most significant risks to the world in the next five years, the Group believes that all stakeholders should work together to address climate change and do their best to mitigate it while minimizing its impact on business operations.In recent years, the pace of change has expedited around the world, underscoring the importance for us to accelerate its transition to a low-carbon economy. The Group essentially plans to respond to local government initiatives and follow local governments’ emission reduction requirements. We are committed to continuously improving our energy efficiency, applying professional knowledge to improve on-site efficiency and maintain efficient management support, in order to safeguard the Group’s reputation.Over the years, we have been grasping different opportunities to expand our business, accelerate the transformation and make the Group more digitalised, more environmentally friendly, and safer for employees and users (such as automation, and utilizing digital platforms for online conference to reduce carbon footprint in transportation). These measures have made our facilities become more sustainable and fulfil our commitment to resource management and environmental protection.29鴻承環保科技有限公司ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIALANDGOVERNANCEREPORT 20232023年環境、社會及管治報告氣候變化行動應對氣候變化的行動已納入本集團的業務策略，並體現於公司的管治及管理流程中。

由於政策更新、技術發展、數碼化、影響供應鏈的相關風險以及公眾對本集團的印象和聲譽等的過渡性風險都有可能令營運成本和法律風險增加。

本集團已識別相關風險，並持續監察市場及政策的變更。

本集團亦計劃根據市場需求進行投資，並以此為契機進行長遠發展。

多年來，本集團為供應鏈已採取一系列措施，協助公司應對氣候事件，考慮到資產類型、地點及相關性，採取因地制宜的針對性措施。

下表已概述相關措施：Physical climate risks have the potential to damage the integrity of the Group’s assets or affect our service delivery and customers directly. The Group has already formulated a range of measures in place to enhance the continuity and integrity of its operations, such as “Contingency Plan for Environmental Emergencies” (《突發環境事件應急預案》), in order to effectively prevent and handle environmental emergencies, avoid or minimize the pollutants or other toxic and hazardous substances from entering the atmosphere, water body, soil, etc., so as to protect the environment, help maintain social stability and make every effort to ensure that the impacts of such environmental incidents on public health and property safety are minimized.Transition risks can potentially increase the Group’s operational cost and legal risks due to the change in policy, technological development, digitalisation, impact on the supply chain and the public perceptions towards the Group’s impression and reputation. The Group has already identified the relevant risks and will keep monitoring the market and policy updates regularly. The Group has also planned to invest according to the market needs and take this as an opportunity for long-term development.Over the years, a series of measures have been adopted to put in place along the Group value chain to help the Company prepare for cl imate events.
