Overview
Jiangxi wastewater treatment plant serves 61,000 people in Lixinxiang, Jiujiang, Jiangxi, China. The facility has a designed capacity of 1.00 (unit unspecified) and operates under China's national wastewater regulations.
The Jiangxi wastewater treatment plant is located in Chexi Village, Lixinxiang, Yongxiu County, Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, China. It serves a population of approximately 61,000 people, placing it in the medium agglomeration category under Chinese wastewater management standards. China's wastewater treatment regulations require secondary treatment for urban plants serving populations above 50,000. The facility is expected to meet national discharge standards set by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment. The plant discharges treated effluent into local water bodies within the Poyang Lake basin, one of China's largest freshwater lakes. Poyang Lake drains into the Yangtze River, supporting diverse aquatic ecosystems and providing critical habitat for migratory birds. The facility plays a key role in protecting downstream water quality in this ecologically sensitive region.
Environmental context
The plant is located in the Poyang Lake watershed, which flows into the Yangtze River and ultimately the East China Sea. Poyang Lake is a seasonally fluctuating freshwater lake that supports rich biodiversity, including fish spawning grounds and wintering waterbirds. The treatment plant helps reduce nutrient and pollutant loads entering this ecologically important lake system.
