Two of the companies, Dong Nai Battery and Bien Hoa Steel Joint-Stock Co, have built wastewater and waste gaseous treatment systems that are linked with treatment plants in local industrial parks.
The department said regular inspections had been conducted from the beginning of this year. A total of 197 companies will be inspected by the end of the year.
The province will also offer loans with preferential interest rates to help companies build wastewater and waste gaseous treatment systems.
Nineteen out of 21 industrial parks have wastewater treatment factories, except for two industrial parks Ong Teo and Thanh Phu.
Construction has been slow because of plodding site clearance, according to the department.
