Overview
Jiangsu wastewater treatment plant serves Huai'an District, Huai'an, Jiangsu, China, with a population of 150,000. It has a designed capacity of 1.00 (unit unspecified) and operates under China's national wastewater regulations.
The Jiangsu wastewater treatment plant is located in Huai'an District, Huai'an City, Jiangsu Province, China. It serves a population of approximately 150,000 people, classifying it as a medium-to-large agglomeration under Chinese wastewater management standards. The plant's designed capacity is 1. As a facility in China, the plant operates under the national Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant (GB 18918-2002), which sets effluent limits for conventional pollutants, nutrients, and heavy metals. For plants serving populations of this scale, secondary treatment with nutrient removal is typically required, especially in sensitive watersheds. The plant discharges treated wastewater into local water bodies within the Huai River basin, which ultimately flows into the Yellow Sea. The Huai River system is ecologically significant, supporting diverse aquatic life and providing water for agriculture and industry. Proper treatment is essential to protect downstream water quality and the coastal environment of the Yellow Sea.
Environmental context
The plant is located in the Huai River basin, which drains into the Yellow Sea. The Huai River and its tributaries support a range of aquatic species and are important for regional water supply. Downstream, the Yellow Sea coastal zone is ecologically sensitive, hosting fisheries and migratory bird habitats. Effective wastewater treatment helps prevent eutrophication and contamination in this interconnected river-sea system.
