CUFE Shahe Campus Reclaimed Water Treatment Project
1 Project Overview
The Central University of Finance and Economics Shahe Campus Reclaimed Water Treatment Project is a key green campus infrastructure project in Beijing, supporting sustainable water management and resource recycling in higher education facilities.
The system treats domestic wastewater generated on campus and upgrades it into high-quality reclaimed water for landscaping irrigation, landscape replenishment, road cleaning, and municipal miscellaneous use, enabling circular water utilization within the campus.
The project aligns with Beijing’s water-saving city development strategy and supports low-carbon and sustainable campus operation.
