FAQ

  • Q Why is PROBEST water quality analysis an indispensable component throughout the entire wastewater treatment process?

    A
    Water quality analysis serves as the “eyes” of wastewater treatment, spanning the entire process from influent to effluent compliance.
    It is the core prerequisite for ensuring treatment effectiveness, optimizing processes, and guaranteeing compliant discharge:
    Real-time water quality monitoring during treatment allows timely assessment of process performance, preventing suboptimal outcomes. Pre-discharge testing strictly controls effluent quality, ensuring compliance with national environmental standards and eliminating discharge of non-compliant water.
    Without precise water quality analysis, wastewater treatment becomes “blind adjustment and control,” failing to guarantee treatment effectiveness while potentially wasting resources and incurring unnecessary costs.

  • Q How does a comprehensive wastewater treatment system contribute to regional economic development?

    A
    Wastewater treatment capacity directly impacts the quality of regional economic development:

    On one hand, a robust wastewater treatment system meets environmental standards for industrial upgrading, enabling enterprises to achieve green production and avoiding constraints on industrial expansion and advancement due to pollution issues, thereby clearing environmental barriers for industrial development.

    On the other hand, high-quality water environments serve as a core indicator of urban livability, effectively enhancing regional competitiveness and attracting investment and talent inflows. Ultimately, this fosters a virtuous cycle where “ecological conservation drives economic growth, and economic development sustains ecological conservation,” propelling high-quality and sustainable regional economic development.

  • Q What is the significance of wastewater treatment for water resource recycling?

    A
    Against the backdrop of increasingly scarce global water resources, wastewater treatment has transcended mere pollution control to become a core component of water resource recycling:
    Deeply treated reclaimed water can be widely applied in non-potable sectors such as agricultural irrigation, industrial cooling, urban landscaping, and street cleaning, effectively supplementing municipal water supplies and alleviating water resource imbalances. Simultaneously, sludge generated during wastewater treatment, after undergoing harmless treatment, can be converted into organic fertilizers, bioenergy, and other resources, achieving a “turning waste into treasure” resource cycle. This drives societal transition toward low-carbon, environmentally friendly resource utilization models.

  • Q How does wastewater treatment play a critical role in safeguarding public health?

    A
    Wastewater treatment serves as the first line of defense against waterborne diseases.
    Domestic sewage and industrial wastewater contain harmful components such as pathogens, heavy metals, and toxic chemicals. If these directly enter drinking water sources or come into contact with people, they can trigger outbreaks of infectious diseases like cholera and hepatitis. Heavy metals and toxic substances can also accumulate through the food chain, causing chronic poisoning in humans.
    Through processes like disinfection and pollutant removal, wastewater treatment breaks the transmission chain of pathogens at the source. This effectively mitigates public health risks from water pollution, building a robust barrier to protect community residents' well-being.

  • Q What specific ecological harms does the direct discharge of untreated sewage cause?

    A The direct discharge of untreated sewage triggers multiple ecological problems:
    First, it leads to eutrophication in rivers, lakes, and other water bodies, causing excessive algae growth and a sharp drop in dissolved oxygen levels. This destroys aquatic habitats and results in mass deaths of aquatic life such as fish and shrimp.
    Second, pollutants in the sewage can seep into soil and contaminate groundwater, reducing soil fertility and rendering groundwater unusable.
    Third, it disrupts the natural water cycle balance, causing regional water bodies to lose their functional capacity and even affecting the stability of ecosystems such as wetlands and watersheds, resulting in irreversible ecological damage.

  • Q Why is wastewater treatment considered an indispensable infrastructure in modern society?

    A Wastewater treatment serves as a core safeguard for sustaining social operations, ecological balance, and human sustainable development.
    It functions as a vital defense for public health security, a key measure for environmental protection, and a fundamental pillar for resource recycling and high-quality regional economic growth.
    A comprehensive wastewater treatment system stands as a significant indicator of modern societal civilization, directly impacting the sustainability of living environments, public health, and socioeconomic development. It constitutes an indispensable component of urban infrastructure and ecological facilities.
