Special project of investigation of industrial wastewater pollution prevention

Absrtact
Jia-nan water catchment has been sufering from high concentrations of nitric acid, phosphoric acid and NH3-N, which resulted in the low concentration of dissolved oxygen. As seriously polluted as the water qaulity index might suggest, the vast coastal agricultural lands are still under cultivation. Farmers in Tainan city, situated at the end of the catchment, commonly use the catchemtn water for irrigation during dry seasons. It consequently caused the pollution of the farm lands as well as the crop. The large amount of fishing farms nearby are also under threat. Major industrial units in tainan county as well as the wastewater discharged out of he-shun industrila area are allegedly responsible for the deterioration of the catchment water. Although the authority has been focus their attention on some major electroplate factories, concrete evident has not been found yet to legally stop the illegal wastewater discharges. To carry out the pollution reduction plan, “Special plan for major industrial wastewater discharges inspection” was drafted. With the expertise of local professionals and the incoporation of special inspection apparatus, special attention is focused on the He-shun industrial area. With the inspection and regulation of major industrial pollution sources and the collection of illegal discharging evident, it will eventually put an end to the water pollution and ultimately preserve the clean river water bodies. During the project year, Je-ga environmental consulting firm drafted “Inspection of the standard operational procedures of wastewater treatment facilities for He-shun Industrial area”. The industrial working environments were inspected; in addition, their wastewater treatment facilities were analyzed to determine whether illegal wastewater discharges happened. 24-hour water quality monitors were deposited at those factories with alleged pollution behaviors for effectively collecting pollution evidence.
