My factory has to pay high fees for industrial wastewater treatment every year, is it safe to dump hazardous chemicals into a nearby river to avoid expensive disposal fees?

It is never safe to dump hazardous chemicals into a river. As well as the potential fees for industrial wastewater treatment, there are fines and legal repercussions for companies that illegally discharge hazardous substances into the environment. Moreover, improper disposal of harmful chemicals can cause serious damage to habitats and species in the river, create air, soil and water pollution, and may endanger human health. It is better to ensure proper industrial wastewater treatment rather than taking such a risk.

It is NEVER a good idea to dump hazardous chemicals into a nearby river. Wastewater treatment fees may be expensive but they are much cheaper than the cost of mitigating environmental or human health issues caused by chemical discharges. In addition, improper disposal of hazardous substances can lead to criminal and civil penalties and damage to the company’s reputation.
