What impact does the wastewater ratio have on the environment?
The wastewater discharge ratio has an important impact on the environment, which mainly includes the following aspects:
Impact on water resources: A large amount of wastewater discharge will lead to pollution and over-utilization of water resources, affecting the quality and quantity of surface water and groundwater. This will directly affect human domestic water and agricultural irrigation water, and will also damage the aquatic ecosystem and affect the survival and reproduction of aquatic organisms.
Soil impact: If harmful substances in wastewater are directly discharged or leaked into the soil, it will cause soil pollution, affect the fertility and ecological environment of the soil, and then affect the growth and quality of crops.
Biodiversity impact: Wastewater discharge will affect the biodiversity in the water body, and toxic substances will have an adverse effect on the survival and reproduction of aquatic organisms, which may lead to the reduction or even extinction of certain species and destroy the ecological balance.
Atmospheric impact: Volatile organic compounds and aerosol substances in certain wastewater will affect the air quality after discharge and aggravate air pollution.
Human health impact: If harmful substances in wastewater are not thoroughly treated or directly discharged into the environment, they may endanger human health through drinking water, food chain and other channels, causing various diseases.
Therefore, it is very important to reasonably manage and control the proportion of wastewater discharge, and effective wastewater treatment measures should be taken to ensure that the discharge meets the standards and minimize the negative impact on the environment. At the same time, it is also necessary to strengthen the supervision and management of wastewater discharge to protect the ecological environment and people’s health.
