The Fujian wastewater treatment plant is located in Fengze District, Quanzhou, within Fujian Province, China. It serves a population of approximately 168,000 people, classifying it as a medium-to-large agglomeration under Chinese wastewater management standards. The plant's designed capacity is 1. As a facility in China, the plant is subject to national discharge standards under the Environmental Protection Law and the Water Pollution Prevention and Control Law. For agglomerations of this scale, secondary treatment is typically required, with potential nutrient removal in sensitive watersheds. The plant's regulatory compliance is overseen by local environmental authorities. The plant discharges into the local water system within the Fujian coastal region, ultimately draining into the Taiwan Strait. The surrounding watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is part of a densely populated urban area. Proper treatment is essential to protect downstream water quality and the marine environment of the strait.

The plant is located in Quanzhou, Fujian, within the coastal watershed that drains into the Taiwan Strait. The region's rivers and estuaries support important fisheries and migratory bird habitats. Effective wastewater treatment is critical to prevent nutrient loading and maintain the ecological health of the strait's coastal waters, which are influenced by both urban runoff and industrial discharges.
