The court of original instance held: Despite its knowledge that defendant Wang Zhanrong did not have the qualification to dispose waste acid, defendant Dystar Company, in violation of the state's environmental law, engaged him to dispose the waste acid generated in the course of the Company's production; Despite his knowledge that Ding Weidong did not have the qualification to dispose waste acid, defendant Wang Zhanrong forwarded him Dystar Company's waste acid for his disposal; Despite his knowledge that it was chemical waste liquid and that Ding Weidong was unable to dispose waste acid, defendant Xu A, helped Wang Zhanrong with the transport; and despite their knowledge that it was chemical waste liquid, defendant Sun A and Qian A secretly dumped it into rivers in violation of the regulatory provisions. These conducts finally caused severe environmental pollution and exceptionally serious consequences, and all constituted the crime of environmental pollution, as a joint offense. Despite their knowledge that Wang Zhanrong did not have the qualification to dispose waste acid, defendant Wang Jun and Huang Jinjun facilitated, within their respective authority, the consummation of the transaction, caused the consequence of severe environmental pollution, and shall be held criminally liable for the crime of environmental pollution as Dystar Company's direct supervisor and other directly liable person. By taking advantage of its position, defendant Huang Jinjun extorted properties from defendant Wang Zhanrong and advanced the latter's interest at a relatively large amount. His conduct constituted the crime of taking bribes by a person who is not a state functionary. Guilty of multiple crimes, Huang Jinjun shall be subject to combined punishments.		原审人民法院认为：被告单位德司达公司违反国家环境保护法律规定，明知被告人王占荣无废酸处置资质，而将本公司生产过程中产生的废酸交由其处置；被告人王占荣明知丁卫东亦无废酸处置资质，仍将德司达公司的废酸转交给其处置；被告人徐某甲明知其运输的是化工废液以及丁卫东可能没有处置废酸的能力，而帮助王占荣进行运输作业；被告人孙某、钱某明知是化工废液，仍然违反国家规定偷偷排放河中，最终导致严重污染环境且后果特别严重，均已构成污染环境罪，且属共同犯罪。被告人王军、黄进军明知王占荣没有废酸处置资质，仍然在各自职责范围内促成交易进行，导致严重污染环境的后果发生，是德司达公司直接负责的主管人员和其他直接责任人员，依法应当以污染环境罪追究刑事责任。被告人黄进军利用职务上的便利，索取被告人王占荣的财物，为其谋取利益，数额较大，其行为构成非国家工作人员受贿罪。黄进军一人犯数罪，依法应当数罪并罚。
In the joint crime of environmental pollution, Dystar and Wang Zhanrong played the main role, constituted the principal criminals, and shall be punished for all the crimes involving them; Xu A helped Wang Zhanrong transport waste acid, played an ancillary role, constituted an accessory criminal and shall be subject to mitigated punishment within or below the statutory range of sentencing; Sun A and Qian A were hired by Ding Weidong, acted in an subordinate position, constituted accessory criminals and shall be subject to mitigated punishment within or below the statutory range of sentencing.

The appellate's grounds and defenses raised by the appellant Dystar Company and its defender were：1．The first－instance judgment elevated, without a theoretical or factual basis, the conduct of individual employees of Dystar Company to be the will of the Company, and therefore Dystar Company shall not be founded as a primary criminal；2．Due to its illegal source of samples, unscientific content and erroneous conclusions, the environmental damage assessment report issued by Jiangsu Provincial Academy of Environmental Science shall be excluded as illegal evidence; and 3．The fine assessed for Dystar Company was excessively high.		上诉单位德司达公司及其辩护人提出的上诉理由和辩护意见是：1、一审判决将德司达公司员工的行为上升为公司意志，缺乏理论和事实依据，不应认定德司达公司为主犯。2、江苏省环境科学研究院出具的环境损害评估报告中的检材来源不合法，且内容不科学，鉴定结论错误，属于非法证据，应当予以排除。3、对德司达公司判处的罚金数额过高。
The appellate's grounds and defenses raised by the appellant Wang Jun and his defender are：1．Wang Jun's sentence shall be 3 years of imprisonment or less because the amount of hazardous waste disposed in the presented case did not belong to the other exceptionally serious circumstances set forth in the judicial interpretation; and 2．Wang Jun's punishment shall be changed into a probation because in joint offenses, the one who directly made the waste disposal is more culpable, and by doing the work assigned by the General Manager, Wang Jun was not a direct supervisor, played an ancillary and secondary role in the joint offense and thus shall be deemed an accessary criminal.		上诉人王军及其辩护人提出的上诉理由和辩护意见是：1、本案处置危险废物的数量不属于司法解释中的其他后果特别严重情形，对王军的量刑应在有期徒刑三年以下。2、在共同犯罪中，直接非法处置废物的主体责任更大，王军实施的行为是完成公司总经理交办的工作，不属于直接负责的主管人员，在共同犯罪中起辅助、次要作用，应认定为从犯，请求改判缓刑。
The appellate's grounds and defenses raised by the appellant Wang Zhanrong and his defender are：1．The environmental damage assessment report issued by Jiangsu Provincial Academy of Environmental Science shall be excluded as illegal evidence；2．It was inappropriate to find that the case caused exceptionally severe consequence of environmental protection; and 3．The imprisonment term and fines assessed in the first instance were excessively high because Wang Zhanrong truthfully admitted and repented the crime, and deserve mitigated punishment within or below the statutory range of sentencing.		原审被告人王占荣的辩护人提出的辩护意见是：1、江苏省环境科学研究院出具的环境损害评估报告属于非法证据，应当予以排除。2、认定本案构成污染环境罪的后果特别严重情形不当。3、王占荣如实供述罪行，有悔罪表现，可以从轻或者减轻处罚，一审判处的刑期和罚金过重。
It has been found through this trial that：		经审理查明：
I. The facts on the environmental pollution：		一、污染环境事实。
