Overview
Jiangsu wastewater treatment plant serves Tianning District, Changzhou, Jiangsu Province, China, with a designed capacity of 1.00 and a population served of 400,000.
The Jiangsu wastewater treatment plant is located in Zhongcun Village, Diaozhuang Street, Tianning District, Changzhou, Jiangsu Province, China. It serves a population of 400,000, classifying it as a large agglomeration under Chinese wastewater regulations. As a large-scale facility, the plant is expected to meet national discharge standards under China's Water Pollution Prevention and Control Law. Treatment typically involves biological processes such as activated sludge, with nutrient removal in sensitive areas. The designed capacity of 1.00 indicates the plant's throughput capability. The plant's treated effluent likely discharges into local waterways that flow into the Yangtze River Delta, a densely populated and economically vital region. The downstream environment supports diverse aquatic life and is critical for water supply and agriculture in Jiangsu Province.
Environmental context
The plant is located in the Yangtze River Delta, where treated wastewater likely enters the Grand Canal or local tributaries before reaching the Yangtze River and ultimately the East China Sea. The delta is ecologically sensitive, supporting fisheries and migratory birds, and is subject to strict pollution control due to its high population density and industrial activity.
