For example, it works with the Provincial Environmental Protection Agency to ensure compliance with environmental regulations and resources for pollution prevention and control, as well as with the Price Administration Commission to ensure fair market access and price setting. HCCIA also serves as a platform for members to network and exchange knowledge and experience. The association organizes and facilitates regular meetings, seminars, and conferences, bringing public attention to coking and chemical industry issues.
The association also offers specialized technical training to members on numerous topics, ranging from advanced coking production processes to project financing. In addition, HCCIA works with government investment and funding agencies to promote national coking and chemical industry-development programs and initiatives, attract investors and venture capital to the region, and stimulate local economic growth.
