Overview
The Shandong wastewater treatment plant serves Luozhuang District, Linyi, China, with a population equivalent of 413,000. It operates under China's national wastewater discharge standards.
The Shandong wastewater treatment plant is located in Luozhuang District, Linyi City, Shandong Province, China. It serves a population equivalent of 413,000, classifying it as a large-scale municipal facility within the region's wastewater infrastructure. China's wastewater treatment regulations, including the Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant (GB 18918-2002), set effluent limits based on receiving water sensitivity. For plants serving over 100,000 people, secondary treatment with nutrient removal is typically required to protect water quality. The plant discharges into local waterways that ultimately drain into the Yellow Sea via the Yi River system. Its operation is critical for protecting downstream aquatic ecosystems and supporting water reuse in the water-scarce North China Plain.
Environmental context
The plant's treated effluent flows into the Yi River, a tributary of the Huai River basin, which discharges into the Yellow Sea. The region faces water scarcity and pollution challenges, making effective treatment essential for maintaining downstream water quality and supporting agricultural and industrial water reuse. The plant's location in a densely populated urban area increases its environmental significance.
