The Thames Water Pollution Treatment And The Enlightenment To The Huaihe River Valley

The industrial revolution is a big creation of the world in British history, politics and economy have under gone significant changes, the England had became the first industrialized country in the world. Along with the development of industrialization, urbanization has been accelerated, a large number of rural population to urban agglomeration, the urban population increased rapidly, and with the deterioration of the urban environment. The industrial revolution made the city one of Europe’s most poor areas, garbage thrown away, no drainage, infectious disease outbreak. The people had enjoyed the great wealth and industrial development, but also to maximize the destruction of the city environment.Since the middle of the nineteenth Century, the Thames River was seriously polluted and pollution shocking the degree. The river is polluted, the destruction of drinking water sources, drinking contaminated water, life and health is threatened the outbreak of infectious epidemic disease and began large-scale, causing significant casualties. From the existing research, mainly caused by the serious pollution of Thames River:after the industrial revolution, British industry develops rapidly, more and more industrial wastewater will direct the sewage discharged into the river without take effective measures, because many factory owners to maximize the pursuit of economic interests; With the rapid development of the social economy, a large number of population went to the city, because of the lagging behind of management, municipal infrastructure, resulting in a large number of domestic sewage is discharged into the river; During the period of Vitoria, British popular liberal policies, the government attention focus on economic development is far more than the social and public affairs, local governments considerations economic development and the pollution of the river are often ignored, so causing pollution seriously.Thames River is the serious water pollution caused by the government’s great attention from all walks of life, and made some efforts. Set up the city sewage committee responsible for water pollution, and actively seek the social from all walks of life through the investigation and study of the comments and suggestions of changing the macro policy in social and public affairs management, strengthen the municipal construction and establishment of urban sewage system. According to the British Parliament, the customary law had many deficiencies in the river pollution control. British Parliament decided to promulgated a number of laws, to make up for the loopholes of the law, to promote the legalization process of river pollution control Those people who suffered the river pollution have spontaneously organized through various forms to appeal to the community concerned about the pollution of the river. In a certain extent, they play a roll on promoted the river pollution control and progressed of the cause of public health.From the middle of nineteenth Century to twentieth Century, the British government take measures to control water pollution and spent a total of about one hundred and twenty years. Now Thames River is recognized as the best water quality of rivers that flowing through urban areas.Huaihe River Valley is located in eastern China, between the Yangtze River and the Yellow River basin. It is in the north and south of China climate transition zone, the basin area of 270000 square kilometers. It is the important agriculture、 electric power、coal production base in China. However, since the 70’s of last century, the area of the Huaihe River Valley for the urgent desire of economic development, constructed a number of low technical content、high energy consumption and serious environmental pollution industrial and mining enterprises such as papermaking、tanning、electroplating chemical and other heavy polluting enterprises, resulting in a large amount of sewage discharged into the Huaihe River Valley, resulting in Huaihe river dry tributary water quality deterioration, water pollution is serious. Not only to the serious water pollution has brought great threat to the life and health of the people, but also affect the sustainable development of the local economy and society.In 1994 the State Council decided to govern Huaihe River Valley, it is become the first comprehensive governance according to law of the river. The state has adopted a series of measures, promulgated the "Provisional Regulations on the prevention and control of water pollution in Huaihe River Valley ", has approved the Huaihe River Valley water pollution control "Nine Five"、"Fifteen Five"、"Eleven Five" Three Five Year Plan。After ten years of hard work, the total discharge of pollutants of Huaihe River Valley under control, the coverage and the treatment efficiency of sewage treatment can be improved obviously. At the same time, set up the sewage charges, sewage treatment adjustment mechanism and water market, the Huaihe river Valley water quality improved significantly.However, in the face of increasing ecological environment system and various uncontrollable factors in economic development, the heavy pressure of the fragile situation, prevention and control of water pollution in Huaihe River Valley is still serious. At the macro level, it has not formed a clear and effective water pollution governance mechanism, from the central to the local government did not form an effective force; At the micro level, it is should be improved the market mechanism and the public environmental awareness of water conservation combined with the actual and constantly.At present our country is in a period of rapid development of industrialization and city, face a lot of pressure on the environment, the contradiction between human and nature is very prominent, various types of environmental damage and environmental pollution problems. How to deal with the city development and the problems of pollution control, realize harmonious development of human and nature, Thames Water pollution control has a certain reference significance for today’s Chinese water pollution prevention of city.
