Overview
Guangxi wastewater treatment plant serves Rong'an County, Liuzhou, Guangxi, China, with a population of 105,000. It operates under China's national wastewater standards.
The Guangxi wastewater treatment plant is located in Rong'an County, Liuzhou City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China. It serves a population of approximately 105,000 people, classifying it as a medium-to-large agglomeration under Chinese wastewater management frameworks. As a plant of this scale, it is expected to comply with China's Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant (GB 18918-2002), which sets effluent limits for conventional pollutants and nutrients. Typical facilities serving this population size employ secondary biological treatment with nutrient removal to meet Class 1A or 1B standards. The plant discharges treated effluent into the local watershed, which ultimately drains into the Liujiang River system and then the Pearl River basin. This water body supports aquatic life and is used for downstream agricultural and municipal purposes, making effective treatment essential for regional water quality.
Environmental context
The plant's receiving water body is part of the Liujiang River system, a tributary of the Pearl River basin. The Pearl River is one of China's major rivers, flowing into the South China Sea near Guangzhou. The watershed supports diverse aquatic ecosystems and provides water for irrigation, industry, and drinking water downstream. Effective wastewater treatment is critical to prevent eutrophication and protect biodiversity in this ecologically sensitive region.
