Overview
Guangxi wastewater treatment plant serves Baise City, Guangxi, China, with a population of 113,000. It operates under China's national wastewater standards.
The Guangxi wastewater treatment plant is located in Pingguo City, part of Baise City in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China. It serves a population of approximately 113,000 people, classifying it as a medium-to-large agglomeration under Chinese wastewater management frameworks. The plant is situated inland, away from coastal areas, and its operations are subject to China's national discharge standards. The plant is expected to meet the requirements of China's Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants (GB 18918-2002). For a facility serving over 100,000 people, secondary treatment with nutrient removal is typically mandated, with potential upgrades to tertiary treatment in sensitive watersheds. Operational practices align with regional environmental protection goals. The treated effluent from this plant likely discharges into local rivers or water bodies within the Pearl River basin, which ultimately flows into the South China Sea. The plant plays a crucial role in protecting downstream aquatic ecosystems and supporting water quality in the region's densely populated and agriculturally active areas.
Environmental context
The plant's receiving water body is likely a tributary of the Pearl River system, which drains into the South China Sea. This watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is vital for local fisheries and agriculture. The plant's discharge must comply with standards to prevent eutrophication and protect downstream ecosystems, including ecologically sensitive estuarine zones.
