Nei Mongol wastewater treatment plant serves Tongliao, Inner Mongolia, China, with a population equivalent of 62,600. The facility operates under China's national wastewater discharge standards.
The Nei Mongol wastewater treatment plant is located in Dongshengtun, Kailu Town, Kailu County, Tongliao City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China. Serving a population equivalent of 62,600, the plant is a key municipal infrastructure for the region's wastewater management. As a facility in China, the plant is subject to the national Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants (GB 18918-2002), which sets effluent limits for various pollutants. For agglomerations of this size, 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's treated effluent likely discharges into a local river or stream within the Liao River basin, which ultimately flows into the Bohai Sea. The surrounding region is semi-arid with continental climate, and the plant plays a crucial role in protecting local water resources and downstream aquatic ecosystems from pollution.
Environmental context
The plant is situated inland in the Liao River basin, over 50 km from the coast. Treated wastewater likely discharges into a tributary of the Liao River, which flows eastward into the Bohai Sea. The downstream environment includes agricultural areas and wetlands that depend on water quality. Effective treatment is essential to prevent eutrophication and protect biodiversity in the receiving waters.
