ABSTRACT
To meet the increasingly stringent discharge standards of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in the Taihu Lake Basin, the Chinese government successively established the National Special Water Project Program to develop new technologies to retrofit and upgrade existing wastewater treatment processes during the 11th, 12th, and 13th Five-Year Plans. However, there is a lack of systematic sorting of the existing research outcomes, and thus hinders the application and promotion of the upgrade technologies. Based on the outcomes of the National Special Water Project and a field survey, this research analyzed the current status of wastewater treatment in the Taihu Lake Basin and systematically integrated the retrofitting measures of WWTPs in terms of achieving the Grade IA of the national standard and local stricter discharge standards (DB 32/1072-2018 and DB 33/2169-2018). In particular, the boundary conditions, design parameters, specific recommendations of the technologies, and some typical engineering cases were provided accordingly. Finally, this study discussed the future development directions of WWTPs during the upgrade process from the perspective of carbon neutrality and digitalization. The present work will hopefully assist in retrofitting and constructing WWTPs to achieve the stricter effluent discharge criteria and help optimize the design and construction of WWTPs in the best way.
