Sustainable water treatment
With an annual output of 12 million tons of high-quality recycled water, Hengji Water ensures the stable treatment of sewage and highly polluted wastewater discharged from chemical companies. The company operates a portfolio of two wastewater treatment facilities and one water recycling asset with a total operating capacity of 220k ton/day.
Hengji Water has consistently met and exceeded the national standards for municipal and industrial water treatment. Moreover, by recycling the water for industrial use, the facility is also improving the local ecological environment and preserving valuable water resources in a part of China where this is especially scarce. This commitment to industry standards continued throughout the COVID-19 outbreak when the company was able to provide uninterrupted services to the Dalian community.
