Rencently, the Taozi Bay Wastewater, Reclaimed Water and Sludge Circular Economy Demonstration Project, constructed under the leadership of Wanhua Chemical, has recently been awarded the China Civil Engineering Zhan Tianyou Award — the highest honor in China's civil engineering and technological innovation sector. The award represents high-level recognition of excellence in engineering quality, technological innovation, and comprehensive social benefits.

Nine years of dedicated craftsmanship, eleven sub-projects, one integrated circular system.
Bringing together wastewater treatment, reclaimed water reuse, and sludge resource recovery, the project has established a complete closed-loop system of "wastewater – reclaimed water – sludge – resources." Throughout construction, the project team pursued continuous process optimization and technological upgrades, deploying advanced membrane treatment technologies and exploring viable pathways for the resource utilization of large-scale wastewater treatment facilities.
Through a combination of sludge fermentation power generation, photovoltaic solar power, and sewage-source heat pump heating, the project achieves coordinated resource recycling and energy utilization, cutting CO₂ emissions by 56,620.75 tonnes per year.
Going forward, Wanhua Chemical will continue to leverage materials innovation, deepen its commitment to water resource recycling and ecological protection, and help create an infinitely sustainable future for a better life for all.
