Overview
Jiangxi wastewater treatment plant serves 320,000 people in Nianyushan Town, Jiangxi Province, China. It operates under China's national wastewater standards for large agglomerations.
Jiangxi wastewater treatment plant is located in Nianyushan Town, Changjiang District, Jingdezhen City, Jiangxi Province, China. The facility serves a population of 320,000, classifying it as a large agglomeration under Chinese wastewater management frameworks. Its designed capacity is 1. As a large-scale municipal plant in China, it is subject to the Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant (GB 18918-2002), which sets effluent limits for COD, BOD, ammonia nitrogen, and total phosphorus. Plants of this size typically employ secondary biological treatment, such as activated sludge or A2O processes, to meet Class 1A or 1B standards depending on the receiving water sensitivity. The plant discharges into local watercourses that ultimately drain into the Poyang Lake basin, the largest freshwater lake in China. Poyang Lake is a critical wetland ecosystem supporting migratory birds and diverse aquatic life. The plant's performance directly affects water quality in this ecologically significant region, which flows into the Yangtze River.
Environmental context
The plant's treated effluent enters local streams within the Poyang Lake watershed, the largest freshwater lake in China. Poyang Lake is a vital wetland that supports migratory birds and diverse aquatic species, and it drains into the Yangtze River. The region experiences a subtropical monsoon climate with seasonal flooding, making nutrient and pollutant control essential for maintaining lake health and downstream water quality.
