Overview
Hebei wastewater treatment plant serves Shangyi County, Zhangjiakou, Hebei, China, with a population of 39,600. The plant operates under China's national wastewater discharge standards.
The Hebei wastewater treatment plant is located in Shangyi County, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province, China. It serves a population of approximately 39,600, placing it in the medium agglomeration category for Chinese municipal wastewater infrastructure. Under China's national wastewater discharge standards (GB 18918-2002), plants serving this population typically require secondary biological treatment with nutrient removal, especially in sensitive watersheds. The plant's design capacity and treatment process details are not publicly available, but regulatory compliance is expected for facilities of this scale. The plant discharges treated effluent into local water bodies that ultimately drain into the Hai River basin, which flows into the Bohai Sea. The downstream environment supports agricultural irrigation and aquatic ecosystems, making effective treatment important for water quality in the region.
Environmental context
The plant's treated effluent enters local streams that feed into the Hai River system, which discharges into the Bohai Sea. The Hai River basin is a densely populated agricultural and industrial region, and nutrient pollution from wastewater can contribute to eutrophication in coastal waters. Effective treatment helps protect downstream aquatic habitats and drinking water sources.
