Today, we’re launching... The third installment of the “Let Lenses Enter the Frontline of Air Separation” series—“Jinhua Health Bio-Industry Park Explores a New Approach to ‘5G+Multi-Level Prevention and Control of Sudden Water Pollution’.”
In Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, there’s an intelligent system known as the “Wastewater Sentinel” that is quietly safeguarding the water quality standards of the Jinhua Health Park. This system is part of the “Jinhua Health Bio-Industry Park Multi-Level Prevention and Control System for Sudden Water Pollution Incidents,” a project undertaken by China Air Separation. Not only was this project among the first in Zhejiang Province to pass acceptance testing and serve as a model case, but it also won the third prize in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology’s “Bloom Cup” 5G Typical Application Competition and made it to the finals of the National Data Element Competition. The project has been widely covered by numerous media outlets, including Zhejiang News, Chao News, and Toutiao, and has received significant public acclaim.
This project leverages technologies such as 5G, the Internet of Things, and edge computing to establish a response chain featuring “one-click traffic diversion, intelligent interception, and coordinated handling,” centered around three lines of defense: “source prevention—process control—end-stage emergency response.” This ensures that wastewater in the park is “identifiable, traceable, and controllable.” Since its launch and operation, the system has significantly enhanced the park’s capabilities for early warning coordination and precise handling, providing strong support for creating a new model of green, safe, and smart development for the park.
The successful implementation of the project is the result of the Party member task force for smart development (future industrial park) keenly grasping the pulse of the times, striving vigorously, and innovating relentlessly. Led by key Party members, the task force not only focuses on addressing the bottlenecks and pain points in the chemical industry—such as safety management, data integration, and green transformation—but also actively explores an innovative approach of “Party building-led + technological breakthroughs.” Project manager Cai Wei led his team to conduct in-depth surveys within enterprises to gather information on hazardous chemicals, establishing an MSDS technical database. Leveraging AI algorithms, edge computing, and IoT technologies, they have achieved simulations of pollutant water diffusion, water volume analysis, and overflow analysis.
The Party member task force has established a multi-level prevention and control system—covering “enterprise-to-enterprise, enterprise-to-park, and park-to-watershed”—through a comprehensive set of technological measures, thereby achieving the risk-control goal of "preventing even a single drop of accident wastewater from leaving the park."
“Since the project was completed, we’ve successfully addressed numerous potential issues through real-time monitoring and video surveillance,” said Zhu Huijun from the Economic and Technological Development Zone Brigade of the Jinhua Municipal Environmental Protection Administrative Enforcement Team. “In the past, we relied on manual inspections and reports from enterprises, often reacting only after an incident had already occurred, leaving us frequently caught off guard when faced with sudden emergencies. Now, however, many problems can be detected by the system even in their ‘early stages,’ enabling us to intervene proactively and carry out precise management—greatly enhancing the foresight and initiative of our environmental protection enforcement efforts.”
Currently, the nationwide implementation of a three-level prevention and control system for sudden water pollution incidents in chemical industrial parks has been fully launched, along with a pilot program for “one park, one tailored strategy, one comprehensive map.” The Jinhua Healthy Bio-Industry Park is actively promoting platform drills and map compilation, striving to create a demonstration model for prevention and control that is “visible, practical, and replicable,” thereby providing valuable experience for the industry across the province and even the entire country, and contributing to both high-level ecological protection and high-quality economic development.
