Overview
Henan wastewater treatment plant serves 58,500 people in Xun County, Hebi City, Henan Province, China. It operates under national wastewater standards for inland facilities.
The Henan wastewater treatment plant is located in Liyang Street, Xun County, Hebi City, Henan Province, China. It serves a population of 58,500, placing it in the medium agglomeration category for Chinese wastewater infrastructure. The facility is situated inland, away from coastal areas, and its operations are governed by China's national discharge standards. As a plant serving approximately 58,500 people, it falls under China's regulatory framework for urban wastewater treatment. Chinese standards typically require secondary treatment for facilities of this scale, with potential for advanced treatment if the receiving water body is sensitive. It is expected to comply with the Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant (GB 18918-2002). The plant discharges treated effluent into local waterways that eventually drain into the Hai River basin, which flows into the Bohai Sea. The surrounding region 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 Hai River basin, which ultimately drains into the Bohai Sea. This watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is important for regional agriculture and fisheries. The inland location reduces direct marine impact, but the cumulative effect of multiple discharges in the basin necessitates effective nutrient removal to prevent eutrophication in downstream waters.
