| Project Detail |
The objective of the Guilin Integrated Environment Management Project in China is to improve water and sanitation services in Guilin. The project is made of five components and are as follows: (1) Water Supply. Investments under this component will improve the water supply system to fully meet current and projected future demand of domestic consumers, commercial and industrial enterprises, an expanding airport, and two expanding universities. The component will involve: (a) installation of a trunk water main and associated distribution and reticulation pipelines; (b) construction of a booster pumping station; and, (c) provision of monitoring and inspection equipment in the network to improve compliance with the new drinking water quality standard; and (d) development and installation of a decision support system for improved operational efficiency. (2) Wastewater Management. This component focuses on maintaining the water quality of Lijiang River by improving the collection and treatment capacity of Guilin?s Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) by: (a) replacing aged equipment at selected pumping stations and the installation of additional odor control; (b) expanding, replacing or rehabilitating sewer networks and provision of necessary; (c) upgrading four WWTPs to improve the quality of effluent discharges, and associated odor control and disinfection equipment; (d) upgrading sludge dewatering equipment at three WWTPs and installing associated ventilation and odor control facilities at all five WWTPs, and (e) provision of monitoring and sewer maintenance equipment. (3) Sludge Management. This component aims to enhance sludge management thus preventing environmental pollution from inappropriate sludge disposal by: (a) constructing a sludge management center and associated ventilation and odor control facilities; and (b) procurement of sludge hauling trucks and sewer ma |
