The provisions of industrial water pollution prevention and control have been well implemented since the newly revised Law of the People’s Republic of China on Prevention and Control of Water Pollution was issued on January 1, 2018. The national policies and facility construction related to industrial water pollution prevention and control have achieved significant progress. National departments and provinces have issued over 60 related policies and regulations. Outdated production facilities were eliminated to actively promote cleaner production, and over 1400 centralized sewage treatment facilities were constructed in industrial agglomeration areas. However, investigation and evaluation indicate that the progress in the implementation of some legal provisions and the control of industrial water pollution is slow. Moreover, the implementation of provisions between regions and industries is imbalanced, excessive discharge of pollution occurs, and the regulatory capacity to support new national/local emission standards is insufficient. We suggest that entire-process control should be conducted over industrial water pollution while focusing on cleaner production, and drainage indicators should be optimized to further promote environmental information disclosure.

Groundwater is a significant source of drinking water and a strategic resource for China. However, the groundwater quality in China is unoptimistic and China faces a severe situation regarding groundwater environment protection as its groundwater pollution prevention and control started late. Therefore, problems faced by groundwater pollution prevention and control should be researched and targeted countermeasures be proposed to curb the trend of groundwater pollution and improve groundwater quality. The study reviews the existing regulations and policies, management status, and requirements of groundwater pollution prevention and control in China, and predicts the future management trend. The results indicate the following challenges. (1) The groundwater pollution status is still unclear and hierarchical and classified management of groundwater pollution is lacking. (2) The groundwater pollution forms become increasingly complex and the regulatory system requires improvement. (3) The groundwater pollution control becomes increasingly difficult and only few control technologies were applied to underground pollution treatment. (4) The requirements of groundwater environmental management are constantly improving; however, the innovation impetus is insufficient. Therefore, we proposed several countermeasures. The pollution status should be identified through continuous investigation and assessment of groundwater environment in key regions, to support the construction of a hierarchical and classified management system. Intelligent, visualized, and coordinated supervision should be achieved by establishing a multilevel groundwater environmental monitoring network and adopting supervisory measures based on information technologies. Green and sustainable models should be formed and promoted through the experimental implementation of groundwater pollution prevention and control projects and by constructing 21 pilot sites. The original innovation and management capacities should be enhanced by focusing on key technical issues such as groundwater pollution traceability, standards system construction, and development of relevant software with proprietary intellectual property rights.

The newly revised Law of the People’s Republic of China on Prevention and Control of Water Pollution is crucial for pollution prevention and control in China. In this paper, we first review the achievements of the law in eight aspects since its implementation on January 1, 2018. Subsequently, we analyze the issues in implementing the law from four perspectives: (1) water environment management system and mechanism, (2) supervision over water pollution law enforcement, (3) drinking water source protection and groundwater pollution prevention, and (4) water pollution prevention and control. Accordingly, four countermeasures are proposed from the aspects of management system, law enforcement capabilities, water source protection, and pollution prevention. Specifically, efforts should be put into coordinated watershed management, river chief system perfection, and water quality improvement, thus to promote the up-to-standard discharge of industrial wastewater, pollutant interception and treatment of municipal pipe networks, recycling of municipal activated sludge, low-carbon and economical treatment of rural sewage, and rural non-point source pollution prevention.

The "Major Science and Technology Program for Water Pollution Control and Treatment" is one of 16 major projects of the national medium and longterm science and technology development plan. The Liaohe River basin is one of key basins for state water pollution control. Based on the summary and analysis of water environmental problems, this paper introduces two technology systems including thought, target, framework, and content forwatershed water pollution control and treatment and management in Liaohe River basin. During the "11th Five-year" plan, some research and demonstration projects have been carried out successfully covering aquatic ecological function zoning, water quality benchmarking technology, aquatic ecological carrying capacity, water quality management in the control unit, water pollution control in key industries, and early warning and risk management of water environment. The two technology systems have played a positive significant role in the water quality improvement and ecological restoration of Liaohe River basin. A new water environmental management mode—"zoning, classification, grading, staging" mode— has been established in the whole basin, which will promote the spread of the watershed water quality target management.

Within years of environmental governance, many comprehensive environmental control measures have been taken in Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region to cope with air pollution, water pollution, solid waste pollution, and ecological damages. These measures could be summarized as industrial restructuring, energy structure adjustment, transportation structure adjustment, land use structure adjustment, and green transformation of agriculture and rural areas. A questionnaire survey was conducted to distinguish the comprehensive benefits of these measures, and the comprehensive benefits were evaluated using a cloud model evaluation method. Result shows that these comprehensive benefits are ranked from high to low as industrial restructuring, energy structure adjustment, transportation structure adjustment, land use structure adjustment, and green transformation of agriculture and rural areas. This method and the result can provide a scientific foundation for the selection of comprehensive control measures for treating multiple pollution media in Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region.

Establishing a river chief system is stipulated in the newly amended Law of the People’s Republic of China on Prevention and Control of Water Pollution, which clarifies the liability of party or administrative heads at various levels for water environment rehabilitation in their own administrative regions. In this article, we analyze the implementation effects of the river chief in China, current assessment methods, and their deficiencies, and propose two quantitative assessing methods: (1) comprehensive water quality assessment for the cross sections of rivers and lakes and (2) assessment using the pollutant load intercepting rate of sewer networks, aiming to improve the scientific rationality for effect assessment of the river chief system. With Suzhou Creek rehabilitation in Shanghai as an example, application of the comprehensive water quality assessment method was introduced. By analyzing the pollutant load intercepting rate in various provinces (autonomous regions or municipalities) in China, we find that on average 34% wastewater is still discharged into water courses in an untreated state, leading to repeated occurrence of water quality deterioration. Introducing the comprehensive water quality assessment and the pollutant load intercepting rate into the river chief assessment will effectively push the government at all levels to concentrate their human, material, and financial resources onto urban drainage network correction and the interception of pollution sources discharged into watercourses.

Meeting the ever-growing demands of humans while ensuring sustainability is one of the great challenges of this century. China has made significant economic progress in recent decades and is increasingly engaged in international activities. This economic prosperity, however, has resulted in substantial contaminant discharge and damage to domestic aquatic ecosystems. Considerable efforts have been made to address these issues through developments in wastewater services infrastructure. Here, we provide an overview of wastewater infrastructure development in the Yangtze River Economic Zone during 2007–2017 and analyze diverse long-term monitoring data. These analyses trace and capture the key drivers affecting the restoration of water quality and determine how such restoration may be sustained or even accelerated in future. We find that there has been a decoupling trend between the economy and environmental variables since 2013, which coincides with the substantial implementation of improved wastewater treatment systems. While further developments in sewerage facilities and phosphorus discharge reduction may continue restoration, a paradigm shift toward a circular economy remains necessary to integrate these developments with wastewater resources management. Overall, this study advances the current understanding of the impact of wastewater services facilities on the balance between economic development and environmental protection.

Strategic Study of CAE 2001, Volume 3, Issue 8, Pages 46-50
Based on the fact that risk assessment of environmental pollution accidents among factories is a multi-criteria and multi-stage process, and is of relativity and fuzziness, the fuzzy rank theory is developed and applied to solve such ranking problems by means of the fuzzy weighted distance, membership degree and the extensive Minimum Square Criterion. Furthermore, the methodology is applied to assess the risk of potential pollution accidents among four important chemical factories in Dalian, and the results are more reasonable than those obtained by the Index Method.
