In Ordos, Inner Mongolia, a significant milestone has been reached as the largest photovoltaic wastewater zero-discharge project in China, constructed by China Railway Shanghai Engineering Bureau, officially commenced operations on October 30.
This state-of-the-art sewage treatment plant, covering an area of 487 acres, boasts an impressive daily industrial wastewater processing capacity of 100,000 tons. The treated water not only meets discharge standards in terms of quality and salt separation indicators but also sees 95% of it being reused by upstream photovoltaic enterprises.
As a crucial supporting project for the Zero Carbon Industrial Park in the Mengsu Economic Development Zone, this sewage treatment facility caters to the industrial water requirements of several new energy companies within the park. It holds great significance in driving ecological protection and high-quality development along the Yellow River basin in Inner Mongolia.
China's initiative in establishing this remarkable project showcases its commitment to sustainable development and environmental protection in the field of renewable energy. It is expected to set an exemplary standard for similar projects around the world and contribute to the global effort in reducing environmental impact and promoting clean energy production.
