50% of Chinese industrial water consumption is for power plants. So use municipal wastewater as a source.

The water consumed by power plants is about half of the total annual industrial water consumption in China. Considering some characteristics of wastewater in power plants, the paper presented a new process to treat the wastewater. In the process, wastewater was made centralized treatment utilizing activated sludge firstly, then water purifying agent was put into the wastewater and they were coagulation sedimentation. The wastewater was treated by aeration and disinfection at last. In order to increase the efficiency, the ash conveying water was used as the cogulating aid in the process. The experimental results showed that the presented process was effective. The quality of the wastewater after treated was stabile and the ash conveying water was beneficial to the flocculation promotion. The effluent was well used for the circulating cooling water system. It can be concluded that the wastewater of power plants can be the supplementary water of the circulating cooling water system after appropriate treatment. The engineering practice indicated that the process can reveal the social, economical and environmental benefits and be helpful to the realization of the zero discharge of the power plants.
