In September of 2023, China set the aim to enact the Law on Safety of Hazardous Chemicals by the end of 2028. Japan proposed to prohibit the manufacture, import, and use of PFHxS, its isomers and their salts, and prohibit the import of certain products in which such chemicals were used. Australia proposed changes to the rules regarding chemical introduction categorization, reporting, and record-keeping under AICIS. South Korea disclosed chemicals names and CAS numbers of 257 new chemical substances previously registered under K-REACH as their CBI protection periods expired. Indian officials clarified mandatory declarations of IUPAC name and CAS number for import on an offline meeting.

China’s New Pollutants Treatment: A Long Way to Go
New pollutants refer to toxic and hazardous substances that are discharged into the environment with characteristics of biological toxicity, environmental persistence and bioaccumulation, etc. They tend to possess significant risks to the ecological environment or human health, but are usually unregulated or the existing regulation measures are insufficient. As one of the largest chemical producers in the world, it is paramount for China to strengthen the regulation of new pollutants to mitigate potential risks to the environment and human health.
