Overview
Jiangxi wastewater treatment plant serves 65,600 people in Ji'an, Jiangxi Province, China. The facility operates under China's national wastewater discharge standards, contributing to local water quality management.
The Jiangxi wastewater treatment plant is located in Jiebu Town, Xingan County, Ji'an City, Jiangxi Province, China. It serves a population of approximately 65,600, placing it in the medium agglomeration category for Chinese municipal wastewater infrastructure. As a plant in China, it operates under the national Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants (GB 18918-2002), which sets effluent limits for conventional pollutants and nutrients. For a facility of this scale, secondary treatment with nutrient removal is typically required to meet Class 1-A or 1-B standards, depending on the receiving water body's sensitivity. The plant discharges treated effluent into local waterways that ultimately drain into the Gan River, a major tributary of the Yangtze River. The Gan River basin supports diverse aquatic ecosystems and provides water for agricultural and industrial use downstream. Proper treatment helps protect water quality in this ecologically significant watershed.
Environmental context
The treated effluent from the Jiangxi plant flows into local streams that feed the Gan River, which is a key tributary of the Yangtze River. The Gan River basin supports a variety of freshwater species and provides irrigation water for the surrounding agricultural region. Downstream, the Yangtze River estuary is an important ecological zone for migratory fish and aquatic biodiversity.
