Innovative Case Study: China’s first floating smart UF plant in Chongqing reservoir solves land scarcity & ecological challenges. Saves CNY 1.5M+ with solar power, delivering 0.1 NTU water quality.
Case Study: China’s First Floating Smart Water Plant – Where Innovation Meets Ecology
Project Overview: Redefining Water Infrastructure Possibilities
In the ecologically sensitive Yangjiaba reservoir area of Chongqing, we faced an unprecedented challenge: provide reliable drinking water for 49,000 residents without compromising the pristine landscape. With land costs at CNY 300,000 per mu and strict environmental requirements, the conventional approach was impossible. Our solution – China’s first floating smart UF plant – not only solved the water crisis but created a new paradigm for sustainable infrastructure.
The Critical Challenge: Infrastructure Development vs. Environmental Protection
Economic Constraints
💰 Prohibitive Land Costs: Acquisition at CNY 300,000 per mu made traditional plants financially unfeasible
📊 Budget Limitations: Needed to serve 49,000 people within tight financial constraints
⏱️ Timeline Pressure: Urgent need to resolve water supply issues for growing population
Environmental & Technical Challenges
