Overview
Guizhou wastewater treatment plant serves approximately 60,000 people in Pingba District, Anshun, Guizhou Province, China. It operates under national wastewater standards for medium-sized agglomerations.
The Guizhou wastewater treatment plant is located in Pingba District, Anshun City, Guizhou Province, China. It serves an estimated population of 60,000, classifying it as a medium-sized agglomeration under Chinese wastewater management frameworks. The plant is situated inland, away from coastal areas, and its operations are part of the municipal infrastructure for the region. As a facility serving a population of 60,000, the plant is expected to meet secondary treatment standards under China's national wastewater discharge regulations (GB 18918-2002). These standards require effective removal of organic pollutants and suspended solids to protect receiving water bodies. Typical facilities of this scale employ biological treatment methods such as activated sludge or sequencing batch reactors. The plant discharges treated wastewater into local waterways that ultimately drain into the Yangtze River basin, contributing to the broader hydrological system of eastern China. The surrounding environment includes agricultural and urban areas, making proper treatment essential for protecting downstream water quality and aquatic ecosystems.
Environmental context
The plant's treated effluent flows into local rivers within the Yangtze River basin, eventually reaching the East China Sea. The watershed supports diverse aquatic life and provides water for irrigation and domestic use. Effective treatment is crucial to prevent nutrient pollution and maintain ecological balance in this densely populated region.
