Earlier, EcoPoliotic wrote, that in November, furnaces for burning rubber were discovered in the Factory District of Zaporizhzhia, the smoke from which was polluting the air. The territory of the enterprise is heavily littered with waste rubber, tires and covered with a layer of soot.

As EcoPolitic previously reported, in August in the industrial zone of the Shevchenkiv district of Zaporizhzhia, it was discovered that an entrepreneur had installed an artisanal furnace in which he melts batteries. Black smoke with a very unpleasant smell is produced from this activity.
