The First Zhuyuan Sewage Conveyance Branch

　　The Shanghai Combined Sewerage Management Office is the operating management unit for the first phase of the Combined Sewerage Control Project. Since the project officially commenced operation on April 1, 1995, it has played a significant role in eliminating the foul odor of the Suzhou River, improving the water quality of the Suzhou River and the lower reaches of the Huangpu River, enhancing the quality of Shanghai’s industrial and agricultural products as well as domestic water supply, improving the health standards of Shanghai residents, and upgrading the urban environment.

　　The management office covers an area of approximately 40,000 square meters. Its Pengyuepu Pumping Station is one of Asia’s largest and most advanced modern facilities. Visiting the central control room and participating in hands-on operations can give young people an intuitive understanding of wastewater treatment, encourage more students and citizens to pay attention to environmental protection, and inspire a love for the motherland and a commitment to protecting the Earth. The Combined Sewerage Management Office is a science education base in Shanghai and offers free group visits for youth organizations by appointment.
