Overview
Heilongjiang wastewater treatment plant serves Xiangyang District, Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang, China, with a population of 150,000. It operates under China's national wastewater standards.
The Heilongjiang wastewater treatment plant is located in Xiangyang District, Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province, China. It serves a population of approximately 150,000, classifying it as a medium-to-large urban wastewater facility within the region. As a plant in China, it is subject to the national Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant (GB 18918-2002), which sets effluent limits for conventional pollutants and nutrients. For agglomerations of this scale, secondary treatment with nutrient removal is typically required, especially in sensitive watersheds. The plant's treated effluent is discharged into the local water system, which ultimately drains into the Songhua River basin. The Songhua River flows through Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces before reaching the Amur River and the Sea of Okhotsk, supporting diverse aquatic life and regional agriculture.
Environmental context
The plant discharges into the Songhua River basin, a major tributary of the Amur River system. The Songhua River supports fisheries and irrigation for the surrounding agricultural region. Downstream, the Amur River forms the border between China and Russia and flows into the Sea of Okhotsk, an ecologically sensitive marine area. The plant's nutrient removal performance is critical to preventing eutrophication in this transboundary watershed.
