Such a vast area must necessarily refer to the consortium discharge system to which hundreds of local companies are connected. Miteni has not produced Pfos and Pfoa for years, since 2011, and even before that, the wastewater from the processing was sent to external treatment systems. Pfos and Pfoa are still used today by over two hundred tanning and manufacturing industries in the area who buy them on the foreign market, companies that are connected to the same consortium drains to which Miteni is connected. The waters leaving the Trissino plant are under constant control, processed with systems that fully comply with the Consortium's instructions without ever exceeding the required limits. The company has also invested more than 15 million euros in water treatment and environmental interventions in recent years. Miteni collabora fin dagli anni Novanta con le istituzioni nazionali e internazionali per la ricerca sui Pfas e i possibili effetti sull'ambiente e sull'uomo, ancora in fase di studio. Confermiamo ogni disponibilità a condividere gli studi svolti in questi anni e siamo pronti a ogni confronto con le istituzioni. Già dal 2006 l'azienda ha fornito il proprio supporto scientifico all'Istituto Superiore di Sanità per ricerche e approfondimenti su queste sostanze che nella gran parte dei casi non hanno alcuna nocività conosciuta e sono ampiamente impiegate in decine di settori delle produzione industriale tra cui anche il campo farmaceutico.
