Preface
Can you believe that the big tanker trucks running on the street can still be used to transport cooking oil?
As a result, China Grain Storage began an urgent large-scale investigation, and many tankers transported edible oil in violation of regulations, and the whole process was not strictly cleaned according to the regulations, regardless of whether the oil transported before was toxic.
It doesn't matter if it was fuel oil or other chemical oils that were transported before, it wasn't they who poisoned themselves anyway, and they didn't care about whether the edible oil would be polluted.
These edible oils are all things that our people eat in their stomachs, and there will be such a major pollution accident, fortunately, the relevant departments have taken measures in time.
In this regard, Hu Xijin couldn't sit still, made a very sharp comment, and expressed great worry!
Tanker trucks turned out to be so "presumptuous"
Fuel tanker trucks are not uncommon in our daily life, but few of us will understand what this kind of car does.
In our general perception, these tankers are used to transport gasoline and diesel, or some other chemical products, and no one will associate tankers with food.
However, the facts are completely different from what we imagined, a paper report completely unveiled the black curtain of the oil tanker industry, and individual fuel tankers "took private work" to pull edible oil, and the degree of mixing was despicable.
According to the information disclosed by the media, some tankers will not only be used to load chemical oil, but also directly use to load other liquids that need to be sealed.
In fact, in real circumstances, can this kind of tanker truck be used to load edible oil?
In fact, theoretically, it is possible, because edible oil is also an oil, so the transportation standard must also be transported according to the oil.
Although edible oil does not deflagrate instantaneously like other chemical oils, it can still burn slowly, so the vehicles that transport edible oil generally have to use special tankers.
It's just that the transportation standard of edible oil is relatively high, mainly for hygiene and pollutants, after all, this thing is the food that people eat in their stomachs.
Therefore, the tanker needs to be strictly cleaned between transporting different types of goods, otherwise it will lead to oil pollution, after all, oil has high requirements for purity.
There are still such strict standards between chemical oils, let alone for transporting edible oils, and the requirements for tank cleaning will be even stricter, let alone mixed.
However, now it has been found that some tanker trucks are seriously mixed, and after transporting the chemical oil, they do not go back to load the edible oil directly, and there is no cleaning process during the period.
In this way, the residual chemical oil and edible oil in the oil tank are directly mixed together, and the edible oil is seriously polluted, what will be the consequences if this flows into the market?
Don't these tanker operators have a sense of responsibility? It is self-evident how important food safety is, and they dare to act so wantonly, they really have to rectify it!
Urgent self-inspection of grain reserves!
In fact, the occurrence of such a food safety accident is not the unilateral responsibility of the tanker, and there are also reasons for the loopholes in the company's review.
If companies carry out strict inspections when using these tank trucks, they can actually avoid such incidents, but it is too late to say anything.
Facts speak louder than words, and the fact that the matter has been reported, which shows that there is a mistake in the link of the enterprise in the inspection of the transport vehicle, which allows the tanker trucks to take advantage of the loophole.
If the prescribed inspection procedures are strictly followed, this will not happen at all, because the regulations require very strict inspections.
Not only will the oil outlet and outlet of the tank truck be checked, but the cleaning records of the tank truck will also be reviewed, and even the vehicle will be inspected to a certain extent.
In addition, there must be relevant inspections, sampling and laboratory tests are the basic requirements, and after the inspection, the lead seal treatment must be carried out, in short, the food-related inspections are very cumbersome and strict.
If there is a little loophole in the inspection, it will be seized by someone with a heart, after all, the tanker truck operator also wants to save some money, even if it is just to save a clean-up fee.
However, this matter is generally worse, because edible oil is our daily necessities, we can not drink milk, we can not eat meat, but we can't avoid this edible oil.
No matter who you are, you need to eat oil, because oil is irreplaceable in the diet, and none of us can avoid eating oil.
If this contaminated oil goes to the market, we don't know where the "toxic oil" will go, and the impact on human health is immeasurable.
Fortunately, this matter was exposed in time, and the relevant companies also quickly made adjustments, hoping to minimize the impact of the incident.
China Grain Reserve urgently carried out self-inspection, the relevant inspection was tightened, and a lot of changes were made, and the response was very timely.
However, this incident has caused a lot of impact among the people, and even attracted the attention of CCTV, and Hu Xijin also made a "sharp comment" on it!
This matter has been commented on frequently
CCTV specifically expressed its opinion on this matter, and the occurrence of CCTV directly raised the heat of the incident to a higher level, according to CCTV's speech, the official media is still very concerned about this matter.
And especially emphasized the importance of food safety, the people's food, clothing, housing and transportation are not a trivial matter, the nature of the matter and the past small safety accidents are not the same concept at all.
In addition to the speeches of the central media, Hu Xijin also spoke on this matter, and his words were relatively sharp.
Hu Xijin's speech also said that the nature of this matter is very bad, and it should not be solved just by internal self-examination, and he hopes that an external organization will intervene in this matter.
Checking yourself by yourself may be limited in transparency for the people, but it is more appropriate to use an external agency to check, in addition to fully disclosing the results and giving a proper explanation to the people of the whole country.
And Lao Hu also expressed concern about this matter, although other related companies have indicated that they have not found such a situation, but who can guarantee that this kind of thing is just an example?
It can be seen that Lao Hu is still very concerned about this matter, and the suggestions on how to deal with it are also relatively sharp.
epilogue
When it comes to food, we really can't afford to be a little negligent, because it covers a wide area, and the slightest mistake will radiate to multiple regions.
I also hope that there will be a satisfactory answer to this matter in the later stage, and don't let the people worry about their own ingredients!
