Academician Du Xiangwan stated: I have never been involved nor have I authorized any organization to apply nuclear technology to waste incineration.

Du Xiangwan stated, "Recently, there have been some claims on the internet that I and my team have applied nuclear technology to waste incineration with significant results. I and my team have participated in the consultation project research related to the pilot construction of 'zero waste city.' However, I have never been involved, nor have I authorized any organization or individual to apply nuclear technology to waste incineration. The related news reports circulating on the internet are all false information."
