2. Challenges with wastewater: environmental, health and aesthetic aspects • Inorganic pollutant • Organic pollutant Status and needs

Inorganic pollution l Acid and alkali pollution: industrial wastewater, acid rain l Nitrogen and phosphorus pollution: eutrophicaiton l Sulfate and sulfide pollution l Chloride contamination l Heavy metal pollution Status and needs

• The harm of eutrophication ØWater quality becomes muddy ØReduction of dissolved oxygen ØAlgal toxins ØIncrease color, smell ØGeneration of precursor ØIncrease the cost of water supply plant ØDestruction of aquatic ecology Status and needs

China Wastewater pollutant discharge standards are based on the quality standards of water environment. “Surface water environmental quality standards(GB 3838 -2002)”,It divides the waters into five categories. Class I, mainly applied to the source of water,National Nature Reserve Class II, mainly used in surface water source protection area Class III, mainly applicable to the two level of protection of surface water,fishery waters and swimming areas. Class IV, mainly applicable to general industrial water and recreational water. Class V, mainly applicable to agricultural water district and the general landscape requirements of water Status and needs
