1. General Principles

1.1 Origin of the task

Pumiao Papermaking Factory, affiliated to Nanning Sugar Manufacturing CO., LTD is formerly called Pumiao Sugar Factory. Nanning Sugar Manufacturing CO., LTD conducted industrial structure adjustment according to market demand in 2000, and it decided to stop the production of sugar and concentrated on the production of ethyl alcohol and bleached bagasse pulp, thus to constructed bleached bagasse pulp production lines on the space in the factory. Pumiao Papermaking Factory finished construction of the first phase of 34 thousand tons of bleached bagasse pulp (absolutely dry) in 1999 and construction of the second phase of 68 thousand tons of bleached bagasse pulp (absolutely dry) in 2004, and put into operation. Pumiao Papermaking Factory conducted another exploration and technology upgrade after putting into operation, which was finished in 2007 and enabled the production capability expand from 68 thousand tons per year to 98 thousand tons per year.

The production line of 98 thousand tons per year of Pumiao Papermaking Factory after technology upgrade in 2007 uses chlorine as bleacher, which will generate dioxin, a kind of pollutant. The state issued “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper industry” (GB3544-2008) in 2008, which improves the requirements for the discharge of waste water from pulp and paper industry. According to the requirements in “Reply of Guilin Environmental Protection Bureau on Environmental Impact Statement of Technology Upgrade Project of Pumiao Papermaking Factory, Nanning Sugar Manufacturing CO., LTD Concerning Expanding Annual Production Capability from 68 thousand tons to 98 thousand tons (Gui Huan Guan Zi [2008] No.268), the waste water from Pumiao Papermaking Factory, Nanning Sugar Manufacturing CO., LTD was emitted according to table 1 in GB3544-2008 before 2010 and according to table 2 in GB 3544-2008 after 2010.

Article 22 of “Paper Industry Development Policy” stipulates: “the technology of paper industry shall go towards the direction of high standard, low consumption and low pollution. The application of high yield pulping technology, biological technology, low pollution pulping technology, medium concentration technology, ECF or TCE bleaching technology, low consumption mechanical pulping technology is encouraged, ……” article 23 of “Paper Industry Development Policy” stipulates: “……the application of lime base pulping is prohibited and elemental chlorine bleaching technology on new projects is prohibited (current enterprise shall gradually phase out the application of elemental chlorine bleaching technology). The obsolete and backward pulp or paper making equipments are prohibited to import”. “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper industry” (GB3544-2008) proposes stricter requirements for AOX (Absorbable Organic Halogen), benchmark waste water emission volume per unit product and emitted water quality for pulp and paper industry. In accordance with above stipulations and for the purpose of comprehensive utility of resource, expanding and improving the enterprise, strengthening of social and industrial awareness, we shall strictly comply with laws and regulations concerning environmental protection, resource conservation, labor security, safe production, etc, and gradually enter the construction of new mode of paper industry development which is resource conservation, environmental friendly, and development harmonious. In addition, in order to enable emitted waste water meet the requirements in table 2 of “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper industry” (GB3544-2008), Pumiao Papermaking Factory shall specially upgrade its bleaching and waste water treatment technology. This technology upgrade project includes constructing a new bleaching system with annual treatment capacity of 98 thousand tons gabasse pulp using new ECF bleaching process to replace old No. 1 and No.2 CEH bleaching process which will reduce the generation of dioxin and AOX, and constructing a auxiliary 8 t/d chlorine dioxide preparation section; constructing an anaerobic wastewater treatment system with the capacity of 11000 m3/d to treat bagasse water; construct a deep waste water project with the capacity of 40000 m3/d.

In accordance with relevant stipulations in “Law on Environmental Impact Assessment” and “Regulations on the Administration of Construction Project Environmental Protection”, order of State Council of PRC [1998] No. 253, this technology shall conduct environmental impact assessment. The project is seeking GEF funding support, therefore, Pumiao Papermaking Factory, based on previous EIA Report Forms of bleaching process upgrade and anaerobic wastewater treatment, and tertiary wastewater treatment, prepared this EIA report to satisfy World Bank safeguard policy requirements. Based on the sorting of relevant materials and on site examination and monitoring, Pumiao Papermaking Factory predicts and analyzes the environmental problems of this project, prepares this environmental impact statement to submit to competent department.

1.2 Aims of assessment

This assessment investigates and evaluates the ambient natural environment, social environment, air quality, surface water quality, noise, ecological environment quality to analyze the degree and scope of the impact of this project on ambient environment during construction period and operation period. In addition, this assessment analyzes emission situation at the pollution source after technology upgrade through monitoring pollution source and environmental protection measures, analyzes and argues the environmental protection measures as well the technical feasibility and economical rationality. Meanwhile, complying with the principles like “one control two standards”, “clean production”, etc, this assessment proposes operable rectification measures, compares and evaluates the impact before and after this project based on the principles of emission after meeting requirements in standard and amount control, thus to minimize the adverse impact of this project on environment and ensure sustainable development of regional economy.

1.7.3 Pollutants emission standard

(1) The emitted waste water from pulp and paper industry shall comply with the requirements in table 2 “pollutants concentration limit in waste water from new constructed enterprise for pulp industry” of “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper industry” (GB3544-2008).

Table 7: Emission standard of waste water from paper industry unit: mg/L, except pH value, color degree and dioxin

|Table 2 in GB3544-2008 for pulp industry |

Using the maximum allowed wastewater discharge per ton of air dry pulp produced as indicated in the GB3544-2008, an initial comparison can be made between GB3544-2008 and EHS effluent guidelines, as is shown in Table 7a.

Table 7a Comparison between EHS effluent guidelines and GB3544-2008 (Table 2) discharge standards

|AOX-Workshop |kg/Adt |0.65 | |

|Dioxin-Workshop |TEQ ng/Adt |1.62 | |

|Wastewater discharge |t/Adt |54 |50 |

It is noted that in the EHS Guidelines, cooling water and other clean water is not included, while they are included in the GB3544-2008. The cooling water and other clean water is actually recycled in the paper mill, resulting dischare only about 1-2m3/ADt, which will not substantially change the quantity and quality of the total discharge. Therefore the basis for the comparision is basically identifcal. The comparision shows the EHS effluent guidelines non-wood pulping process does not have requirements on dioxins and AOX. Because the main manufacture of Pumiao Paper Mill is pulping, without paper making, it was derived from pulping. EHS standard is pulp with air drying, however, Chinese standard is absolute drying. When converse Chinese standards to air drying pulp, the conversion coefficient is 1/0.9. In the Chinese standards, AOX and Dioxin are both detected at workshop exit.

The results also show that generally the Chinese GB3544-2008 standards are more stringent than the EHS effluent guidelines, except that the total nitrogen (TN) and discharge slightly surpass the EHS guidelines. Mill-specific analysis on wastewater is presented in clean production nand impact analysis chapters in this report.

2.2 General situation before technology upgrade

2.2.1 General situation before technology upgrade

(1) Production technique of 98 thousand tons pulp

Pulp making production line shall be expanded on current production line of 68 thousand tons pulp, the production technique is as following:

a) Pulp making process

The washed gabasse from material preparation workshop is sent to cooking-ball for cooking trough belt conveyer and the cooked pulp material is sprayed to blow tank and then enter pulp washing section for washing. Coarse pulp from cooking section is washed counter-currently in drum type vacuum pulp washer (four-stage) and extracted black liquor, and the washed coarse pulp is sent to pressure knotter for knot removal and then to high concentration sand separator for sand removal, and then sent to the first stage pressure screen for screening. The good pulp from the first stage pressure screen is sent to vacuum pulp washer for further washing and concentration and stored temporarily in pulp tower after screening waiting for bleaching section. The tail pulp from the first stage pressure screen is sent to the second stage pressure screen for another screening. The good pulp from the second stage pressure screen is sent to the first stage pressure screen in order to reduce fiber loss, and tail pulp from the second stage pressure screen is sent to vibrating flat screen together with tailings from knotter for reuse. The pulp residues can be sold out or burned as fuel. The extracted black liquor is sent to alkali recovery and evaporation section after filtration of black liquor filter.

The concentrated pulp material from washing and screening section is diluted and then sent to pre-bleaching pulp adjustment pool to adjust concentration, and then sent to up-flow chlorination tower after mixture with chlorine in pulp-chlorine mixer. The chloridized pulp is sent to drum type vacuum pulp washer for washing, and the washed pulp enters double shaft mixer. Add NaOH at the spiral part of outlet of pulp washer and add H2O2 and steam at double shaft mixer. Mix well with soup and heat to reaction temperature. The mixed pulp is then sent to alkalization tower for alkalization treatment. Alkalized pulp after dilution is sent to vacuum pulp washer for washing, then the washed pulp with added bleaching liquor enters bleaching tower though double shaft mixer for bleaching. The bleached pulp after dilution is sent to vacuum pulp washer for washing, and then add H2O2 to washed pulp and enters H2O2bleaching tower through double shaft mixer for bleaching. Then the bleached pulp is stored in post-bleaching pulp storage tower after washing and concentration. The washing filtrate shall be reused counter-currently as much as possible to reduce water use amount. The post-bleaching pulp is sent to pulp storage tower with the concentration of 10%. The concentration of pulp is diluted to 3.5% and pumped to double-screen filter press to concentrate to 30% and sold out after drying.

Refer to figure 2 for Pulp making process of 98 thousand tons pulp making project.

b) Alkali recovery process

The evaporation of diluted black liquor uses countercurrent process: the diluted black liquor from pulp washing section (with 9% to 11% solid) is concentrated to 13% with thick black liquor. Firstly IV effect flashing and flow to V effect and pumped to V→IV→III→II→I effect evaporator to generated thick black liquor after countercurrent evaporation (with 46% to 50% solid) and then sent to combustion section.

The thick black liquor (with 46% to 50% solid) from evaporation section is sent to disk evaporator and heated and evaporated to 50% to 53% through direct contact with smoke, and then sent to alkali recovery furnace for combustion. The smelt generated from combustion flows to dissolving tank through chute. And the green liquor generated from dissolving the smelt with diluted black liquor from cauticization section is sent to cauticization section.

The water used in alkali furnace is mainly clean condensate water from the air heaters of evaporation section and this section. The insufficient part is supplemented by desalted water from heating and power station. The supply water is sent to alkali furnace for use after deoxygenization of de-aerator.

The amount of steam generated from alkali furnace is about 12t/h with the pressure of 2.5MPa and temperature of 400oC. The steam is sent to heating and power station for power generation. The smoke from alkali furnace after treatment of electrostatic precipitator is sent to heating and power station with draught fan and emitted through chimney of 100 m.

The green liquor from combustion section is sent to green liquor clarifier through gutter. The clarified green liquor is sent to lime slaker with smashed lime. The green mud is washed, dehydrated in pre-coat filter and then sent outside the factory with the residues from digestion for landfill. The digestive emulsion is sent to continuous caustizier for cauticization and then pumped to the first stage pressure filter. The thick white liquor is sent to white liquor storage tank and pumped to cooking section in pulp making workshop. The white mud is diluted in white mud dilution tank and then pumped to the second pressure filter. The clarified dilute white liquor is sent to white liquor tank and then to dissolving tank in combustion section. The white mud is pumped to vacuum residue washer through white mud storage tank and was concentrated to 65% in white mud filter. The filtered and concentrated white mud can be sent to concrete factory as raw material.

(4) Current public project

(a) Heat supply

The steam supply plan is: two 25t/h gabass pulverized coal fired furnaces, one is in use and the other is for backup. Two alkali furnaces (100t/h and160t/h) can supply 20t/h together (the 160 t/d alkali furnace is running without full load and will be run in full load after technolog upgrade which will increase steam supply from 8t/h to 12 t/h). There will be another 160 t/d alkali furnace which can supply steam of 12 t/h and the 75t/h coal fired furnace can supply steam of 76 t/h. in summary the stam supply can reach 1333 t/h.

(b) Power supply

Pumiao Papermaking Factory owns a heating and power station with three 1500 kW back pressure turbines, a 3000 kW exaction condensing turbine power generating set, and a 6000 kW exaction condensing turbine power generating set with the full load generating capacity of 13500kWh.

(c) Water supply and drainage

Pumiao Papermaking Factory has two water supply systems: Bachi River and Yongjiang River. Now the daily water supply of Bachi River is 16800m3and that of Yongjiang River is 28800m3. In addition, Nahe water getting pump station set up in March 2001 on Yongjiang River water supply system has reserved the capacity of 14400m3 daily water supply, which enable the total daily water supply of Pumiao Papermaking Factory reach 60000m3.

According to the water utility material provided by the enterprise, the daily water utility amount of Pumiao Papermaking Factory is 331108m3 (including Process water and domestic water,not including Water usage of Mei Heng An Xing Co,Ltd.and Jin Lang Pulp Co,Ltd.), thus the water supply can be guranteed.

The project area conducts separation of rain and waste water . The rain is collected and flowes into Bachi River through Pangugou and eventurally enters Yongjiang River. The waste water emitted tom waste water treatment station directly enters Yongjiang River through waste water pipeline.

2.2.2 Examination and approval situation of current project on environmental protection

According to the materials provided by the project owner, the “environmental impact statement of technology upgrade project on expanding annual production capacity from 68 thousand tons to 98 thousand tons of Pumiao Papermaking Factory, Nanning Sugar Manufacturing CO., LTD” is submitted to Guangxi Environmental Protection Bureau in 2008 and gained the approval from Guangxi Environmental Protection Bureau with the examination and approval opinions (Gui Huan Guan Zi [2008] No. 268, refer to annex 3).

Note: the waste water is not treated by anaerobic treatment when monitoring.

It can be seen from table 14 that, through floatation + aerobic biochemical treatment treatment, all monitoring factors in waste water after treatment meet the requirements in table 1 in “Discharge standard of water pollutants for paper making industry” (GB3544-2001) and pH value and SS meet the requirements for water pollutants for current enterprise in table 1 in “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper making industry” (GB3544-2008). But COD and BOD5 can not meet the requirements for water pollutants for current enterprise in table 1 in “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper making industry” (GB3544-2008).

In order to enable waste water from the factory meet the requirements for water pollutants for current enterprise in table 1 in “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper making industry” (GB3544-2008), Pumiao Papermaking Factory constructed anaerobic wastewater pretreatment system in 2009. According to the monitoring of Nanning environmental protection monitoring station on July 29th 2010 at the former waste water treatment station, refer to table 15 for the monitoring results.

Note: the waste water is not treated deeply when monitoring.

After the introduction of anaerobic wastewater treatment, waste water is emitted after anaerobic biochemical treatment + floatation + aerobic biochemical treatment. It can be seen from table 15 that all monitoring factors including COD, BOD5 , SS and color degree in waste water after treatment meet the requirements for water pollutants for current enterprise in table 1 in “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper making industry” (GB3544-2008). Refer to table 16 for pollutants emission situation. The waste water is emitted to Yongjiang River through the pipeline of 3000 m.

2) Odorous gas

The odorous gas generated are the odorous smell from waste water treatment station, gabasse storage yard, compound fertilizer workshop, cooking ball in pulping workshop, noncondensable gas from evaporation of black liquor and odorous smell from evaporation of disk evaporator in alkali recovery workshop as well as odorous smell from alcohol waste liquor combustion and motive power workshop.

As of blowing out of cooling ball, a large amount of odorous gas can be eliminated by cold condensate treatment of spray water. The alkali recovery furnace will burn condensed black liquid, resulting little odrous agents. A small amount of non-condensed odourous gas is incinerated in boilers.

Therefore, only compound fertilizer drying, gabasse storage yard, andalcohol waste liquor combustion generate large amount of odorous smell and imposed certain impact on ambient residential areas.

To mitigate the impact of odorous smell generated from compound fertilizer drying, the enterprise improved its compound fertilizer drying system, changed former drying inflator to a new one with larger diameter, reduced drying temperature, thus the odorous smell is largely reduced during drying process. Meanwhile, Venturi water film precipitate system is used to treat waste gas generated from compound fertilizer production, which also largely reduced the impact of waste gas emission. Current the odorous smell generated from compound fertilizer production has been largely reduced.

The odorous smell generated from gabasse storage yard is because the fermentation of gabasse for untimely emission of gabasse spray water. To mitigate the impact of odorous smell generated from gabasse storage yard, the enterprise invested in construction of waster drainage system at gabasse storage yard to discharge gabasse spray water in time, thus to reduced the impact of odorous smell generated from gabasse storage yard

2.2.3.3Waste residue

The waste residues are mainly ash from furnace, white mud, gabasse fiber, pulp residue and sludge generated from pulp making. Refer to table20 for the waste residue treatment measures and emission situation. These wastes and residuals are non-hazardous. See Table 20 for details.

|Total | |128970 | | |

2.2.3.4 Noise

The noise mainly from the mechanical equipment noise and steam discharge noise in material preparation, cooking, washing, screening and bleaching, motive power workshops with the sound level between 86dB(A)~110dB(A). The noise reduction measures taken include: installing silencer at inlet of fans and steam discharge pipe of fire light, setting sound insulation control room in workshop with high noise and setting green belt around workshops and the factory.

According to the monitoring results of Nanning environment protection monitoring station from September 17th to 18th 2009 on boundary noise (refer to annex 5), the noise level at day and night and each monitoring points at every side of the factory boundary all meet the requirements for level III in "Emission standard for industrial enterprises noise at boundary" (GB12348-2008).

2.2.3.5 Problems in pollution treatment before technology upgrade

(1) the high concentration organic waste water such as gabasse washing water and spray water is high in pollution load and large in fluctuation. The direct emission of the water into waste water treatment station will damage the biochemical treatment results.

(2) All monitoring points in waste water after anaerobic biochemical treatment + floatation + aerobic biochemical treatment meet the requirements for water pollutants for current enterprise in table 1 in “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper making industry” (GB3544-2008). But after July 1st 2011, current pulp and paper making enterprise shall implement the requirements for new enterprises in table 2 in “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper making industry” (GB3544-2008). Based on above analysis, COD, BOD5, SS and color degree in waste water after anaerobic biochemical treatment + floatation + aerobic biochemical treatment cannot meet the requirements for new enterprises in table 2 in “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper making industry” (GB3544-2008) before technology upgrade.

(3) Pumiao Papermaking Factory uses chlorine as bleaching agent which result in considerable water consumption and water pollutants. In addition, it produces dioxins and AOX that can not meet the more stringent requirements on cleaner production.

2.2.4 Technology upgrade project

This technology upgrade project includes constructing a new bleaching system with annual treatment capacity of 98 thousand tons gabasse pulp using new ECF bleaching process to replace old No. 1 and No.2 CEH bleaching process which will reduce the generation of dioxin and AOX, and constructing a auxiliary 8 t/d chlorine dioxide preparation section; constructing an anaerobic wastewater treatment system with the capacity of 11000 m3/d to treat bagasse water; and acquisition new land outside the south of factory to construct a deep waste water project with the capacity of 40000 m3/d.

2.3 Engineering analysis

2.3.1 Process flow

2.3.1.1 Process of bleaching production line after technology upgrade

(1) Process of chlorine dioxide preparation after technology upgrade

The bleaching agent used in this section is chlorine dioxide, which is an oxidizing bleaching agent with strong selective delignification and widely in paper pulp bleaching. Chlorine dioxide bleaching can have high whiteness and obtaining rate and the bleached paper pulp will gain good physical strength. This project use R8 method to prepare chlorine dioxide with sodium chlorate, methyl alcohol and sulfuric acid as raw materials which can produce high purification chlorine dioxide. This chlorine dioxide preparation system is simple with small investment and no three wastes. Refer to figure 9 for Process flow of chlorine dioxide preparation.

Figure 9: Process flow of chlorine dioxide preparation

[pic]

Explanation of process flow: solid sodium chlorate stored in storage tank after stiring and dissolving is pumped to chlorine dioxide reactor. Methyl alcohol and sulfuric acid are transferred to the factory with tank track and downloaded to storage tank. They are pumped to chlorine dioxide reactor. Sodium chlorate and methyl alcohol under the situation of strong acid will react in reactor to generate chlorine dioxide gas which will become chlorine dioxide solution of 10g/I after absorbed by chilled water in absorption tower. Chlorine dioxide solution is stored in storage tank waiting for being sent to bleaching section. The side product of sodium sulfate is separated by crystallization and filtered in filter, and then sold out after stiring and dissolving.

Introduction of Chlorine dioxide preparation process after technology upgrade

The raw material of thick after filtration is pumped to Venturi pipe and pulverized there with hot water before added into generator system.

The raw material of NaClO3 crystalloid first is dissolved at dissolving tank and delivered to storage tank with material download pump after settling. And then NaClO3 is extracted from storage tank with material supply pump and enters generator from the lower segment after filtration. The NaClO3 then enters re-boiler under the effect of circulation pump and enters generator again. The generated ClO2 is discharged from generator, and reaction liquid and other side products are settled at the bottom of generator, becoming mother liquor of generator. The mother liquor is circulated between re-boiler and generator under the effect of circulation pump and mixed with newly-added NaClO3 solution, sulfuric acid and methyl alcohol to constantly generate gas of ClO2.

When ClO2 is generated constantly, side product sodium sulfate is also crystallized in generator. Part liquid in generator (with sodium sulfate crystalloid) is sent to sodium sulfate filter by material supply pump of sodium sulfate filter to filter sodium sulfate. The sodium sulfate is used for alkali recovery or sold out after stiring and dissolving with hot water. The mother liquor of generator is sent back to generator circulation system to continue reaction.

The generated ClO2 gas in generator is diluted by steam and becomes mixed gas with slight chlorine. The mixed gas goes out from the top of generator and enters inter-stage cooler for cooling and be absorbed by chilled water in absorption tower, thus the mixed gas becomes ClO2 water solution which is delivered to ClO2 water solution storage tank with transfer pump and sent to bleaching section for use with delivery pump.

The vacuum needed by generator system and sodium sulfate filter is generated by vacuum injector (device in Venturi) which extracted air with two medium pressure steams respectively.

The tail gas of the whole system enters gas washing tower and emitted to air after washing with chilled water. Washed dilute ClO2 solution enters absorption tower to continue to absorb ClO2 gas. The chilled water used for absorption and gas washing is generated in chilled set.

(2) Bleaching process after technology upgrade

Description of process flow: screened wash from production line No. 1 and No. 2 is sent to screen vacuum pulp washer of new production line for washing and concentration. Pulp (with the concentration of 10%) from pulp washer enters vertical pipe of medium concentration pump at D0 section through spiral material out. D0 section uses medium concentration up-flow bleaching. Add steam to medium concentration vertical pipe for heating. Send the medium concentration pulp with the bleaching temperature in medium concentration vertical pipe to chlorine dioxide medium concentration mixer to mix with chlorine dioxide added here and the mixture will then enters D0 tower. After certain retention period in D0 tower, the pulp will discharge from the pulp outlet at the top of D0 tower where the white water and sodium thiosulfate will dilute the pulp and remove residue chlorine in the pulp. D0 section uses medium concentration flow bleaching. Caustic alkali and hydrogen peroxide are added at the spiral material out and enter EP tower after mixing and heating in double shaft mixer. The pulp from EP pulp washer enters vertical pipe of medium concentration pump at D1 section through spiral conveyer. D1 section uses medium concentration up-flow bleaching. Add steam to medium concentration vertical pipe for heating. Send the medium concentration pulp with the bleaching temperature in medium concentration vertical pipe to chlorine dioxide medium concentration mixer to mix with chlorine dioxide added here and the mixture will then enters D1 tower. After certain retention period in D1 tower, the pulp will discharge from the pulp outlet at the top of D1 tower where the white water and sodium thiosulfate will dilute the pulp and remove residue chlorine in the pulp. The pulp from D1 tower enters new drum vacuum pulp washer of 80m2 .the washed pulp is pumped into bleached pulp storage tower with medium concentration pump. The pulp in bleached pulp storage tower after dilution with white water is pumped to double-screen filter for dehydration and wet pulp is sold out. This bleaching process will generate part waste water, which is treated in settling pool and sent back to bleaching workshop, thus no waste water is emitted out.

Refer to figure 10 for new bleaching process flow.

Figure 10: New bleaching process flow after technology upgrade

[pic]

Introduction of bleaching process after technology upgrade

The bleaching process uses D0-Ep-D1 ECF bleaching technique which replaces chlorine with Chlorine dioxide as bleaching agent. There is no detached element chlorine during bleaching process. This bleaching process includes following sub-processes.

D0 section: the unbleached pulp enters vertical pipe of medium concentration pulp pump after concentration in pulp washes. The pulp is sent by medium concentration pulp pump to steam heater from the bottom of veridical pipe. After heated to required temperature by medium concentration steam medium pressure steam in steam heater, the pulp will enter medium concentration mixer. Chlorine dioxide is added into pulp before entering medium concentration mixer. After leaving medium concentration mixer, pulp material enters D0 bleaching tower, which is an up-flow bleaching tower and where pulps leave the top of the tower through scrapper downloader and enters dilute chute. Pulp from D0 tower is diluted by the filter liquor in filter liquor tank of this section. And then pulp enters D0 section pulp washer through downloader chute under the effect of gravity. The washing solutions at the wash drum of D0 section pulp washer are filter liquors of EOP section and D1 section.

EOP section:pulp from D0 section pulp washer will enter vertical pipe of medium concentration pulp pump of EOP section. Alkali liquor and H2O2 are added to the pipe at certain speed. The pulp is sent by medium concentration pulp pump to steam heater. After heated to required temperature by medium concentration steam medium pressure steam in steam heater, the pulp will enter medium concentration mixer. After leaving medium concentration mixer, pulp material enters EOP pre-reaction tower and then downloaded to down-flow EOP alkalization tower. Pulp from EOP alkalization tower is diluted by the filter liquor in filter liquor tank of this section and sent to EOP pulp washer with pulp pump. The washing solutions at the wash drum of EOP section pulp washer are filter liquors of D1 section and hot water.

D1 section:pulp from EOP section pulp washer will enter vertical pipe of medium concentration pulp pump of D1 section. Alkali liquor is added to the pipe at certain speed. The pulp is sent by medium concentration pulp pump to steam heater. After heated to required temperature by medium concentration steam medium pressure steam in steam heater, the pulp will enter medium concentration mixer. Chlorine dioxide is added into pulp before entering medium concentration mixer. After leaving medium concentration mixer, pulp material enters D1 bleaching tower, which is an up-flow bleaching tower and where pulp leaves the top of the tower through scrapper downloader and enters dilute chute. Pulp from D1 tower is diluted by the filter liquor in filter liquor tank of this section. And then pulp enters D1 section pulp washer through downloader chute under the effect of gravity. The washing solution at the wash drum of D0 section pulp washer is white water of rotating drum pulp machine.

The filter liquor of D0, EOP and D1 pulp washer during bleaching process shall be reused for dilution in this section. And all white water from pulp washing and pulp concentration at the last section shall be all reused in bleached tower. The excess filter liquor is emitted to medium segment gutter-way for treatment.

The waste gas generated in each pulp washer is emitted to air after being washed in gas washing tower.

2.3.1.2 Waste water anaerobic pretreatment process

This project mainly deals with the high concentration and acid waste water such as condensate waste water from gabasse cooking and washing, spray water from gabasse storage yard, gabass residue washing water. Anaerobic pretreatment generally used high load up-flow anaerobic reactor in paper making industry. The anaerobic treatment technology proposes to use IC internal recycling anaerobic reactor with the design scale of 11000m3/d. Refer to figure 11 for the process flow of IC anaerobic system.

Figure 11: Process flow chart of IC anaerobic treatment system

Explanation of treatment process: the high concentration organic waste water such as gabass residue washing water and spray water from gabasse storage yard converge at Water collection well and then enters pre-treatment unit to remove big foreigners with filter smash. After that, the waste water enters preliminary sedimentation pool to remove solid suspended matter. After cooled to certain temperature, the waste water will enter pre-acidification pool for stabling water volume and adjusting pH value, and part organic pollutants in waste water will be acidized to VFA and the pH value of waste water is adjusted to the best one for reaction. The waste water with best pH value will enter anaerobic reactor from the bottom of IC anaerobic reactor and mix with the particle sludge in the reactor for biochemical reaction. The generated biogas which mainly are methane and will enter gas storage tank and combustion in biogas furnace to dry the sludge generated in waste water treatment system. The treated water overflows from the top to aerobic biochemical system.

2.3.1.3 Deep treatment of waste water from pulp making

This waste water deep treatment station mainly treat the water from waste water biochemical system of medium pulp making section to ensure the emitted waste water meet the requirement in table 2 in “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper making industry” (GB3544-2008). According to the characteristics of waste water and taking into consideration of technical and economic factors, this project proposes the following process flow of waste water deep treatment:

Figure 12: Process flow of waste water deep treatment:

[pic]

(1) Description of process flow

The waste water after biochemical treatment is sent to medium water pool. And after leaving medium water pool, the waste water enters Fenton oxidizing tower to oxidize and degrade the non-degradable pollutants. The waste water after Fenton oxidizing tower will flow into Neutralization and degassing pool with alkali liquor added to neutralize waste water. And then the bubble in waste water is removed by stirring of fan. Waste water from degassing pool will then enter Coagulation reaction pool with PAM added to flocculate the iron sludge in waste water. waste water after Coagulation reaction flows to Sedimentation pool and the iron sludge will settling, the upper clean liquor will be emitted after meeting requirement of standards.

(2) Adding of chemicals

• Alkali

The major consumption of alkali is alkali liquor for adjusting pH value of waste water. The alkali liquor adding device shall be set up for measured adding with measuring pump.

• Fenton agent

The Fenton agents are hydrogen peroxide and ferrous sulfate. The adding device for both hydrogen peroxide and ferrous sulfate shall be set up for measured adding.

• PAM

PAM is added during waste water treatment to improve the flocculation ability of waste water. PAM adding device shall be set up for measured adding.

2.3.2 Comparison of process plan before and after technology upgrade

(1) Harm of CEH three-stage bleaching

The production of gabasse pulp has long used chlorine bleaching technique, i.e. CEH bleaching (Chlorination-Extraction- Hypochlorite). The waste water generated from traditional of chlorine bleaching technique will impose serious pollution. In addition to high load of BOD and COD, there is also a large amount of organic chloride with high toxicity and strong carcinogenicity. The waste water is hard to treat with a large part of organic chloride un-degradable in biochemical treatment. In paper and pulp factory with alkali recovery, bleaching waste water can not used for pulp washing and cooking soup, thus this type of bleaching technique does not apply to sealed and recycling factory of zero emission with strict environmental requirement. The chemical used for bleaching accounts for 15% to 25% of the total chemical for the whole chemical pulp making, the discharge of chemicals with waste water will cause great waste. In addition, the un-reused waste water will increase the water utility of the whole pulp making process. The bleaching technique with serious environmental pollution and large resource waste can not meet the requirements of sustainable development. Details are shown as following:

• The environmental damage of bleacher. The bleachers used in CEH three stage

bleaching are mainly chlorine bleacher—chlorine and hypochlorite. Chlorine is toxic, which will damage ozone in air and will form acid rain with water drop to erode ambient buildings. Despite the low toxicity of hypochlorite, it is a kind of strong oxidizer which will kill microbes in water and oxidize the organic in water to form chlorinated organic.

• Pollution from chlorinated organic in traditional pulp bleaching process. A large amount of chlorinated organic will be generated during bleaching. For example, triethyl orthoformate——this substance has high toxicity and carcinogenicity with the chronic poisoning of lever and kidney damage and a series of symptoms. Meanwhile, triethyl orthoformate is also a substance generating phosgene and damaging ozone. Chlorinated phenolic compounds——the use of chlorine bleacher will generate several types of toxic chlorinated organics when chlorine bleacher is degrading lignin. These toxic chlorinated organics are hard to degrade with biochemical or non-biochemical treatment. The emission of toxic chlorinated organics to natural water will cause toxic effect. The low concentration of these toxic chlorinated organics will accumulate to cause disease. The high concentration of these toxic chlorinated organics will lead to death. Dioxin and furan—— which is a toxic substance with strong carcinogenicity, pahtogenicity and teratogenicity.

• Wwaste water in traditional pulp bleaching process can not be reused. In paper and pulp factory with alkali recovery, alkali recovery system resolves the pollution of cooking waste liquor and will bring notable economic benefit. The environmental protection pressure is mainly from bleaching waste water of chemical pulp. In terms of a deep pulp factory with good alkali recovery system, if bleaching waste water is emitted without treatment, it will account for more than 85% of the total pollution load of the factory. However, bleaching waste water can not be reused in pulp washing as paper making white water. In addition, the direct emission will waste a lot of chemicals, causing great resource waste. When bleaching pulp with chlorine bleacher, bout 92% of element chlorine will become chloridioin and form sodium chloride after combination with Na, and the other 8% will become organic chlorine. if bleaching waste water is reused for pulp washing or cooking soup, sodium chloride will dissolve in water and cause the enrichment of chloridioin in Alkali liquor, which will definitely reduce the alkali concentration of green liquor after cauticization section. In addition, chloridioin has strong corrosivity, and the enrichment of chloridioin will damage equipment. In summary, the bleaching waste water can only be emitted, causing environmental pollution and resource waster. However, the alkali amount for bleaching pulp is about 2-4% of the pulp and the waste water contains much organics. If the waste water can be reused for pulp washing and cooking soup, in addition to recycling of chemical, the organic heat can be gained and reduce the waste water treatment cost.

(2) The advantages of ECF bleaching compared with traditional H single-stage or CEH three-stage bleaching:

On the basis of giving consideration to economic and environmental benefits, this project chooses ECF bleaching technique. The ECF bleaching technique based on chlorine dioxide takes the leading position in modern pulp making factory. With the same effective chlorine amount, the AOX generated from chlorine dioxide bleaching is only 1/5 of that of Cl2 bleaching. Meanwhile, ECF bleaching technique will reduce the acid degree, color degree and content of sodium chloride and ECF bleaching generates no dioxin and other toxic substance with persistent bioaccumulation.

• Long-lasting applicability

On site investigation and research as well as chemical analysis during the past ten years shows that the waste water from paper factory using ECF bleaching technique and with good management contains no dioxin and other toxic substance with persistent bioaccumulation.

• Pollution prevention

Pollution prevention can not only prevent pollution source from entering ecological system or treating after damage is happed. Pollution control and waste water treatment are not sufficient for real prevention. JCI said that it is a important achievement for pulp and paper industry to replace ECF bleaching technique with chlorine dioxide bleaching technique. The replacement eliminates the possibility of dioxin generation in pulp and paper factory.

• The best available technology

In 1990s, for the purpose of responding to the concern on environment, government departments issued new regulations for pulp and paper making industry. The common feature of these regulations and guidelines is “best available technology (BAT)”.

Through chlorine dioxide used for ECF bleaching will also generate some toxic substances, these substance impose little damage on environment and little pollution on air. Meanwhile, waste water from ECF bleaching can be reused for pulp washing and diluted water of cooking soup, which will not only reduce water utility, but recycle the alkali in waste liquor, thus the heat of organics in waste liquor can be gained to achieve energy conservation and efficiency improvement. In addition, the performance of ECF bleached pulp is extremely good, thus US and EU designate ECF bleaching as the core part of BAT.

The gabasse spray water, washing water will be produced from the bagasse preparation process. This technology upgrade constructs a new IC anaerobic treatment system and deep treatment system. The gabasse spray water and washing water enter waste water deep treatment system after IC anaerobic system, biochemical pool and secondary sedimentation pool and emitted out after meeting requirements in standard.

The anaerobic pretreatment technology proposes to use IC internal recycling anaerobic reactor with the design scale of 11000m3/d. Refer to figure 11 for the process flow of IC anaerobic system. According to analysis of situation of Pumiao Papermaking Factory using anaerobic treatment system to treat gabasse water in “environmental impact statement of technology upgrade project on expanding annual production capacity from 68 thousand tons to 98 thousand tons of Pumiao Papermaking Factory, Nanning Sugar Manufacturing CO., LTD”, table 29 shows the all indicators of pollutants in waster water before and after anaerobic treatment.

Note: the waste water is not treated deeply when monitoring.

Gabasse water is organic pollutants with high concentration, thus the concentration of majorpollutants before treatment is high, which impose great pressure on further biochemical treatment system. IC anaerobic treatment system used by Pumiao Papermaking Factory for gabasse water pre-treatment brings good environmental effect, and has great effect on further biochemical treatment of Pumiao Papermaking Factory. The concentration of degradable pollutants in high concentration gabasse water plays an important role in ensuring the waste water of Pumiao Papermaking Factory stably meet the requirements in table 2 of “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper making industry” (GB3544-2008) (pH 6-9,,COD≤100mg/L,BOD5≤20mg/L,SS≤50mg/L,color degree≤50) and has a significant role in protecting the quality of regional surface water.

According to the monitoring of Nanning environmental protection monitoring station from September 17th to 18th 2009 to waste water treatment station, refer to table 31 for monitoring results.

Note: the value in above table is calculated with the concentration at the outlet of deep treatment system. *AOX emission concentration is calculated with the average emission concentration at workshops and the total emission amount.

2.3.4.2 Waste Gas

(1) Odorous gas

The deep treatment system of this project mainly conducts deep treatment to the water from existing waste water treatment station with chemical and physical methods. The oxidizer of H2O2 and catalyzer of Fe2+ (Fenton agent) are added to degrade and oxidize COD which is degradable in biochemical treatment unit to H2O and CO2. Liquid and PAM is added to regulate pH value and for sedimentation treatment. All agents needed by this project are added automatically with separate adding device through sealed pipeline. When treating gabasse waste water, water collection well and preliminary sedimentation pool at anaerobic system is not sealed, thus gabasse waste water will send out volatile odorous gas, imposing certain impact on air quality of area within 100m downwind from the factory. After comparison of similar technique and waste water treatment plant, the emission rates of pollutants of H2S and NH3 are respectively 0.0061kg/h and 0.05kg/h, and the concentration odorous gas at the distance of 50 m and 100m downwind from waste water treatment system is respectively 16.0、11.0, meeting the requirements for level II in table 1 of Emission standards for odor pollutants (the concentration of odorous gas for new and expanded project ≤20). There is no resident sensitive points within 100 m from this project, thus the odorous gas imposes little impact on environment. To reduce the impact of odorous gas on ambient environment, it is suggested to strengthen the sealing of position sending out odorous gas.

(2) Methane gas

The IC reactor of waste water anaerobic system many generate which is inflammable gas. According to the design of this project, methane gas is collected and sent to biogas furnace for combustion and the generated heat is used for drying sludge in dryer. The combusted methane gas becomes CO2 and water steam, causing little impact on air quality. Methane gas also brings large economic value.

2.3.4.3 Noise

The construction site is located at Pumiao Papermaking Factory and Nanning Bali cement factory. Noise sources are mainly from transmission equipments such as fan and water pump with the sound level between 85 to 100 dB(A). The assessment requires equipping sealed sound insulation room for fan and pump, and installing fixture or shocking absorption base on transmission equipment such as fan and pumping to minimize noise, and install silence at the fan outlet. With the above measure taken, the sound level is predicted as 60~70dB (A). In addition, there area workshops and factory rooms around the site, thus it is predicted that no large impact will be imposed on ambient environment. The noise level at the boundary cen meeting the requirement for level III in “Emission standard for industrial enterprises noise at boundary” (GB12348-2008) (day≤65dB(A), night≤55dB(A))).

2.3.4.4 Solid waste

The main solid wastes generated in this project are the crystallization of side product sodium sulfate generated during chlorine dioxide preparation and sludge generated during the operation of anaerobic treatment system and deep treatment system.

The process of chlorine dioxide preparation will generate some side product which is mainly crystallization of sodium sulfate with the generation amount of 3916.8t/a. This crystallization is filtered in filter, and then sold out after stiring and dissolving.

The sludge from waste water treatment station will increase by 796t/a. and the sludge must be dried and treated or disposed of according to “Standard for pollution control on the storage and disposal site for general industrial solid wastes (GB 18599-2001)”. For its good fertilizer effect, the sludge after dewatering treatment will be sent to compound fertilizer factory as raw material. The sludge from waste water treatment station is used comprehensively without impose impact on environment.

It can be seen from table 32 that the technical upgrade does not involve boilers or stacks.After the upgrade, the total amount of main air emission will not change SO2 emission amount: 380.85t/a, smoke dust emission amount:200.03t/a, Nox emission amount:874.33t/a. New air emissions include ammnia gas and sulfur hydrogen from the anaerobic wastewater pretreatment system. Because the new ECF process is used, water consumption and pollutants will decrease substantially. COD emission amount: 434.30t/a, BOD5 emission amount:65.15t/a, SS emission amount54.29t/a, ammonia nitrogen emission amount12.87t/a. the amount of COD, BOD5, SS and ammonia nitrogen are all reduced compared with that before technology upgrade, with the reduction amount of COD, BOD5, SS and ammonia nitrogen are 88.65t/a、174.76t/a、484.6t/a、4.52t/a respectively. Accordingly, some wastewater sludge will be produced. In addition, some sodium sulfate is generated as byproducts from the production system of chlorine dioxide.

2.4 The technology upgrade project complies with industrial and environmental protection policies and plans

2.4.1 The technology upgrade project complies with environmental protection policies

“Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper industry” (GB3544-2008) proposes stricter requirements for AOX (Absorbable Organic Halogen), benchmark waste water emission volume per unit product and emitted water quality for pulp and paper industry. In accordance with above stipulations, ECF technique is a practical and mature selection for the persistence of pulp and paper industry. Phasing out element chlorine bleaching system with ECF bleaching technique will reduce the generation of dioxin and the AOX in emitted waste water. The deep treatment of waste water from pulp and paper industry will largely reduce the emission of pollutants and waste water, complying with the relevant policies of environmental protection.

2.4.2 The technology upgrade project complies with industrial plan

2.4.2.1 The technology upgrade project complies with genral plan of national economy and social development

The international financial crisis imposed great impact on China’s paper making industry. The export of product for each industry is limited, the products of package paper and newspaper accounting for large market share of paper making industry is reduced, meanwhile the international demand is decreasing, which influences the sales of paper products as well as the development of paper making industry. In 2008, the total output of machine-made paper and paper board was 83900 thousand tons, with yearly increase of 8.75% . The industrial total output in 2007 increased by13.08% compared with 2006. The growth rate in 2008 is lower than 2007. From the third quarter on, the industrial product stock began to increase, and enterprises stopped or reduced production, leading to the falling of product price. As of the total output and consumption amount of machine-made paper and paper board, the supply of paper making industry has exceeded demand. As of paper types, package paper and newspaper was impacted seriously, but disposable bathroom tissue still thrived in both production and consumption.

The total output of machine-made paper and paper board was 30500 thousand tons in 2000, and this figure reached 83900 thousand tons. The output of package paper was 12500 thousand tons, this figure reached 37500 thousand tons in 2008, with the growth rate much higher than the growth rate of the whole industry. The output of package paper accounted for 49.45% of the total output of China’s paper and paper board in 2007, higher than the international average level which was 45.20%. The output of package paper increased by 14.44% in 2007 compared with that in 2006, but the consumption amount in the same period increased by 11.36%, with the growth rate of output largely higher than that of consumption.

Financial crisis imposed little impact on the consumer goods including disposable toilet articles. Despite the decline of international economy, the demand of residents for basic consumer goods will not decrease. Financial crisis imposed little impact on export of the consumer goods. In 2008, the large part of disposable toilet articles produced in China, including those produced by multinational enterprises in China, was sold in domestic market, therefore, the market demand will continue to increase steadily and rapidly. During the past two decades, the market of China’s disposable toilet articles has been increasing rapidly. The market scale of China was about 40 billion RMB in 2007, accounting for 10% of the world market. And the market scale of China was predicted to be 45 billion RMB in 2008.

With the issue of “Paper Industry Development Policy” and strengthening on implementing energy-conservation and emission-reduction and phasing out backward production capacity, as well as the implementation of new standard on pollutants emission of paper making industry, the government departments at every level will focus on monitoring, administration and law enforcement of paper making enterprise. Some enterprise with unreasonable economic scale, high energy consumption and waste consumption, emission not meet the requirements will be phased out, which will bring more market for the enterprise suitable to develop like this project.

The product of this factory used to be bleached gabasse pulp, which is the raw material of high and medium class household paper. With this technology upgrade, the product quality will improved to meet the demand of household paper for paper pulp of environmental protection, this technology upgrade enables the enterprise take the leading position on the same production of the industry, and brings good market prospect.

This project is an environmental protection project, aiming to phase out the element chlorine bleaching system with large pollution and construct new environment friendly and energy-conservation production line of ECF bleaching. Meanwhile, the waste water treatment will be strengthened by new gabasse water anaerobic treatment system and waste water deep treatment system, and white mud and ash will be reused comprehensively. Therefore, this project complies with the national industrial development policy and general plan of national economy and social development.

2.4.2 2. The technology upgrade project complies with industrial development plan

Article 22 of “Paper Industry Development Policy” stipulates: “the technology of paper industry shall go towards the direction of high standard, low consumption and low pollution. The application of high yield pulping technology, biological technology, low pollution pulping technology, medium concentration technology, ECF or TCE bleaching technology, low consumption mechanical pulping technology is encouraged, ……” article 23 of “Paper Industry Development Policy” stipulates: “……the application of lime base pulping is prohibited and elemental chlorine bleaching technology on new projects is prohibited (current enterprise shall gradually phase out the application of elemental chlorine bleaching technology). The obsolete and backward pulp or paper making equipments is prohibited to import”. “Discharge standard of water pollutants for pulp and paper industry” (GB3544-2008) proposes stricter requirements for AOX (Absorbable Organic Halogen), benchmark waste water emission volume per unit product and emitted water quality for pulp and paper industry. In accordance with above stipulations, ECF technique is a practical and mature selection for the persistence of pulp and paper industry. Phasing out element chlorine bleaching system with ECF bleaching technique will reduce the generation of dioxin and the AOX in emitted waste water. The deep treatment of waste water from pulp and paper industry will largely reduce the emission of pollutants and waste water, complying with the relevant policies of environmental protection. The comprehensive utility of white mud and ash and waste water deep treatment technique also comply with the comprehensive utility and clean production principles of “Paper Industry Development Policy”.

3.2.4 The situation of Wuhe Power Station in Planning

In addition to Nanning’s flood bank, its flood prevention also relies on Laokou and Baise cascade (Hydro-junction). Nanning’s flood bank was constructed according to the standard of prevention of flood once 200 years. The joint operation of Nanning’s flood bank with Baise cascade will improve Nanning’s flood prevention ability to prevention of flood once 200 years, and the joint operation of Nanning’s flood bank with Baise and Laokou cascade will improve Nanning’s flood prevention ability to prevention of flood once 200 years. According to the development principle, guidelines, tasks of Laokou-Xijin section of Yujiang River, the development of Laokou cascade shall first meet the demand of Nanjing, national key flood prevention cities for flood control, and then meet the demand for water landscape and shipping, the last function of Laokou cascade is power generation. The task and role of Laokou cascade shall follow the original plan result. The normal level of Xijin cascade lowered by 1.50m compared with the original planed level of 63.6m. the river bed elevation of section in Nanning city after its expansion is from 40.9 to 60.23 m. the normal level of Xijin cascade during drought period is 62.1 m with the water depth from 21.2 to 1.87m and some river bed exposed, which may influence shipping. In addition, this can not meet the requirement of Naning city waster landscape for water level of Nanning section, Yujiang River no less than 66m.

To improve the water landscape of Yongjiang River in Nanning city during drought period, Nanning municipal Development and Reform Commission entrusted Guangxi Zhuwei Nanning Survey and Design Institute to prepare “Report on complementary plan of Laokou-Xijin section cascade at main stream of Yujiang River Xijiang River system of Zhujiang watershed” in May 2005, and proposed to increase a cascade at the main stream of Yongjiang River with the specidic location at the downstream of Nanning downtown area. For this purpose, the complementary plan for this cascade proposed two schemes for comparison.

Scheme one: the first scheme of Xijin, which maintains the original planned cascade and restores the normal level of Xijin cascade to 63.6 m to meet the requirement of Nanning for water landscape in downtown area or increase to 66m to meet the requirement of Nanning for the lowest landscape level at Yujiang River.

Scheme two: the secondary scheme, which maintain the situation of Xijin cascade, but increase a Yongning Wuhe cascade for the purpose of reducing submerge and increase the water level of Yujiang River in Nanning city, thus to meet the requirent of Nanning city for landscape and shipping.

According to the compression of two schemes and following the principles that the main functions of Laokou-Xijin section are flood prevention and water landscape and giving consideration to shipping and power generation, for the purpose of reduce resident relocation and immigration, and taking the new human-oriented idea for treating water, the normal water level of 63.6m in the first Xijin scheme can not meet the requirements for water landscape, but the normal water level of 66m is infeasible for the huge investment and resident relocation. Therefore, the plan suggested increasing Yongning cascade at the section (Wuhe Power Station), which is the secondary scheme, the secondary development of Xijin Yongning cascade.

For the purpose of not increasing the flood prevention and treatment pressure of Nanning, and imposing adverse impact on the stability of bank of Nanning section of Yujiang River, and meeting the requirements for water landscape and shipping (level III water course and 1000 t traffic capacity), the normal pool level of Wuhe Power Station is prepared with four plans which are 65 m, 66m, 67m and 69, with 66m suggested.

6) Development scale

The land area of Bali Industrial Park is 5.52 km2 with the population of 13 thousand.

7) General layout

With the division of major roads, the general layout of the Park is “two axis and four districts”. The industrial land is mainly at the south of the secondary road and on the northeast part with the area of 336.79 h. The logistic and storage land is mainly at the east part of service area of the secondary road with the area of 49.06 h. The residential land is mainly at the northwest corner of the park with the area of 49.06 h, which consists of auxiliary living land and the relocation land of residents from Nali village. The public facility land is mainly at the northwest part of the park with the area of 8.92 h.

8) Water supply plan

The daily water consumption of Bali Industrial Park is 955 thousand t/d. The supply source in the short distance is Qingshui Spring whose water supply capacity is 50 thousand t/d. The supply source in the long distance is the city water supply pipeline network and the regeneration water in the park, considering the water supply system of different quality. To ensure safe water supply, the water supply pipeline network is set in ring shape.

9) Water drainage plan

The water drainage system conducts separation of rain and waste water. There is a waste water lifting pump station at Bachi River. The household waste water and industrial waste water are collected into pipeline system and pumped to Bachi River waste water treatment station to treat. Before the construction of Bachi River waste water treatment station, the industrial waste water is emitted to Bachi River after treatment by each enterprise, and household waste water is emitted to pipeline network for rain after collective treatment. The waste water and industrial waste water will be eventually emitted to Yongjiang River after meeting requirements in standard. The construction scale of Bachi River waste water treatment station in the short term is 50 thousand m3/d and that in the long term is 100 thousand m3/d.

10) Power supply plan

The power supply source of Bali Industrial Park in the short distance is 110 kV Pumiao converting station. It is proposed to construct a new 110 kV converting station on the east of the Park with the capacity of 3X10 MVA and land area of 7000 m2. It is planed to reserve a 10 kV ground passageway and will be laid overhead in the near future.

11) Transportation plan

The Park plans the road structure of “three verticals and two horizonal”. There are two main roads from north the south, increasing the connection with Xianhu development area, and a main road from east to west, increasing the connection with Wuxiang new area. Therefore, the transportation of the Park is convenient.

12) The green system and landscape plan

The green system in the Park consists of two parts: park green land with the area of 2.49 h and green land for environmental protection with the area of 19.22 h. The landscape structure plan is “landscape area-landscape axis-landscape joint”.

13) Sanitation facility plan

It is proposed to construct 9 public toilets and 3 small household waste transfer stations. The short term household waste is sent to household waste yard at the south of Nanning city for landfill. The long term household waste is sent to the new comprehensive waste treatment center at the north of the city. There is also an industrial waste transfer station with the land area of 1500 m2 to collect general industrial waste. The hazardous waste is sent to the hazardous waste and radioactive waste treatment center.

14) Fire-fight plan

It is proposed to construct a level III fire-fight station in the Park with the land area of 3000 m2. The fire-fight water supply is low pressure system, which is supplied by municipal water supply pipeline network, aided by enterprise water supply system.

Sulfur dioxide:The values of hourly mean concentration and daily mean monitoring at seven monitoring points were lower than the limits in national standard. The highest hourly mean concentration which is 0.058mg/m3, 11.6% of the limit in the standard, appeared at Nanning the first National Normal School. The highest daily mean concentration which is 0.025mg/m3,, 16.7% of the limit in the standard, also appeared at Nanning the first National Normal School.

Nitrogen dioxide: the situation is similar to sulfur dioxide. The values of hourly mean concentration and daily mean monitoring at seven monitoring points were lower than the limits in national standard and the measured rate is low. The highest hourly mean concentration which is 0.026mg/m3, 10.8% of the limit in the standard, appeared at Nanning No. 43 Senior School. The highest daily mean concentration which is 0.021mg/m3,, 17.5% of the limit in the standard, also appeared at Nanning the first National Normal School.

Total suspended particulates:The values of daily mean monitoring at seven monitoring points were lower than the limits in national standard. The highest daily mean concentration which is 0.182mg/m3,, 60.7% of the limit in the standard for daily mean concentration of TSP, appeared at Nanning No. 43 Senior School.

Inhalable particulates:The values of daily mean monitoring at seven monitoring points were lower than the limits in national standard. The highest daily mean concentration which is 0.145mg/m3, 96.7% of the limit in the standard for PM10 daily mean concentration, appeared at Nanning No. 43 Senior School. The high value appears at this monitoring point because that Nanning No. 43 Senior School is closed to Yongheng Road which is largely influenced by dust from the road.

Now the technology upgrade has finished, and the annual pulp product capbability has reached 98 thousand tons. The monitoring results show that after technology upgradea, this project does not impose obvious impact on regional air environment. All monitoring factors meet the requirements for level II. Especially that the main wind direction during monitoring period is southeast, and the monitoring factors at Nanning the first National Normal School (the planned boundary of WUxiang new area), Nanning No. 43 Senior School、Pumiao Town at the downwind direction all meet the requirements, indicating that the normal emission of waste gas will not impose large impact on WUxiang new area, Nanning No. 43 Senior School and Pumiao Town.

Odorous gas:The monitoring value at Social welfare institute does not exceed the limit in standard. This monitoring point is largely influenced by odorous gas from waste water treatment station. Odorous gas is monitored when the wind direction is south. Social welfare institute is located at the downwind direction of waste water treatment station. The table of monitoring results shows that the impact of odorous gas from waste water treatment station imposes little impact on Social welfare institute.

It can be seen from the single quality index in table 41, the highest values of sulfur dioxide is the smallest among all the monitoring items, and that of PM10 is the largest, TPS takes the second position with Nitrogen dioxide TSP. therefore the air in the region take PM10 as major pollutant.

4.2 Survey and assement of current surface water quality

4.2.1 Distribution of monitoring sections

This technology upgrade has two waste water emission outlets. The household waste water is emitted to Bachi River through Pangugou after leaving 2# waste water emission outlet Yongjiang River and eventurally enters Yongjiang River. The water emitted tom waste water treatment station directly enters Yongjiang River through waste water pipeline after leaving1# waste water emission outlet. The assement scope of Yongjiang River is from Xinde village to Changtang village with the length of approximately 25 km and six monitoring sections were set up. The assement scope of Bachi River is from Bizi village to the entrance of Bachi River to Yongjiang River with the length of approximately 7 km and three monitoring sections were set up. Meanwhile, one monitoring section was set up at 150 m before Pangugou flowing into Bachi River. Refer to table 42 and attached Diagram 4 (p. 232) for the arrangement situation of each monitoring section.

4.2.5 Assessment standard

Pangugou is waste accepting channel without water function. This assessment only lists its monitoring value.

According to water function zoning, the assessment of Yongjiang River uses the requirement of level III water in “Environmental quality standards for surface water (GB3838-2002)”; the assessment of Bachi River uses the requirement of level III water in “Environmental quality standards for surface water (GB3838-2002)”. As of the suspended particulate not enlisted in “Environmental quality standards for surface water (GB3838-2002)”, refer to “Quality standards for surface water resources” (SL63-94). Refer to table 44 for the content of standards related to this assessment.

Table 44: Standard for surface water quality

|Item |Level Ⅲ |

|pH value (no dimension) |6~9 |

| dissolved oxygen ≥ |5 |

|permanganate index ≤ |6 |

| COD,  ≤ |20 |

| suspended particulate, *≤ |30 |

|BOD5 ≤ |4 |

|anion surfactant ≤ |0.2 |

|fecal coliform(piece/L) ≤ |10000 |

*note: suspended particulate takes reference of “Quality standards for surface water resources” (SL63-94)

4.2.6 Assessment method

The assessment is conducted in accordance with the standard index method suggested in“Technical guidelines for environmental impact assessment”-surface water (HJ/T2.3). the formulas are:

1) Standard index for general pollutants

Si.j=Ci.j/Csi

In this formula: Si.j——standard index of pollutant i at monitoring point j. the standard index higher than 1 indicates that the water is polluted by this pollutant.

Ci.j——concentration of pollutant i at monitoring point j.

Csi——standard surface water quality in parameter i.

2) standard index for DO

[pic]

[pic]

[pic]

In this formula: SDOi,j──the pollution index of DO;

DOj──the measured concentration value of DO;

DOS──standard water quality in DO;

DOf──maximum concentration value of DO under the temperature of T.

3) standard index for single factor of pH

[pic] pHj≤7.0

[pic] pHj>7.0

In this formula: SpH.j:single factor of pH;

pHj: monitored pH value at monitoring point j

pHsd:the lowest pH value in surface water quality standard;

pHsg:the highest pH value in surface water quality standard.

The smaller of Si value, the better of the water quality. When Si is higher than 1, the water factor exceeds the limits in standard and can not meet the requirement of environmental function zoning.
