Overview
Shandong wastewater treatment plant serves Fei County, Linyi, Shandong, China, with a population of 170,000. The facility operates under China's national wastewater discharge standards.
The Shandong wastewater treatment plant is located in Fei County, Linyi, Shandong Province, China. It serves a population of approximately 170,000, classifying it as a large agglomeration under Chinese regulatory frameworks. The plant is situated in an inland area, away from the coast, and discharges into local water bodies. As a large-scale municipal facility, the plant is expected to meet China's Discharge Standard of Pollutants for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants (GB 18918-2002), which mandates secondary treatment as a minimum. For plants serving over 100,000 people, stricter limits on nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus may apply, especially if the receiving water body is in a sensitive area. The regulatory framework ensures compliance with national standards. The plant's treated effluent likely flows into the Yi River or its tributaries, which are part of the Huai River basin. The Huai River ultimately drains into the Yellow Sea. The local watershed supports agricultural and urban water uses, and the plant plays a key role in protecting downstream water quality and aquatic ecosystems.
Environmental context
The plant discharges into the Yi River system, a tributary of the Huai River, which flows into the Yellow Sea. The Huai River basin is a major agricultural region in China, and the plant's effluent must meet standards to prevent eutrophication and protect downstream aquatic life. The area supports diverse freshwater species and is important for regional water supply.
