Present situation of water environment in Moguhu Reservoir and countermeasures for its protection

Through the investigation and analyses of main pollution sources and water quality condition in Moguhu Reservoir, it can be concluded that the reservoir is severely polluted and loses its breeding function. Rational measures are proposed to alleviate the pollution and control pollutants discharged into the reservoir. As wastewater from the papermaking factory in Shihezi City is the main pollution source, oxidation ponds should be constructed for the treatment of wastewater, so that water discharged can reach the environmental standard. A sewage treatment plant should be established as soon as possible for treatment of wastewater collected by sewage pipes, so that the water quality of effluents can reach the first level of pollution discharge standard. Appropriate control can help reduce the amount of pollutants discharged into the reservoir.
