Predictive Simulation Study on the Effect of Small and Medium River Basin Outfall Treatment Measures on Water Quality Improvement

摘要

In recent years, the problem of water pollution in middle and small river basins has become increasingly serious. In order to control the water pollution of small- and medium-sized rivers, based upon the hydrodynamic module and the water quality module in MIKE21, this paper established a numerical computing model for middle and small river basins by taking the Xiyong River Basin as a typical representative. The excessive levels of nitrogen in the Xiyong River have significantly impaired the quality of the water in terms of the river status, so seven different scenario hypotheses of treatment measures are proposed, based on which the hydrodynamic simulation on the total nitrogen (TN) concentration's movement was implemented and the time of the nitrogen concentration to reach the standard was predicted. The results showed that the water quality of the Xiyong River improved significantly after the treatment measure, and the annual mean of the TN concentration will decrease by 0.496 mg/L. The results will help the government to control the pollution sources of small and medium river basins. The research of Xiyong River based on the MIKE21 model can be used as the basis for pollution reduction and water quality improvement, which provides an example for the ecological restoration of small and medium rivers.
