Students from the Changzhou Lucheng Primary School learnt about the city’s municipal water treatment system and the importance of preserving water resources in their visit to the Veolia Changzhou Technical Centre on 9th February 2018.

In the “Learn More About Water!” lecture, the students learnt how fresh water were being processed before becoming tap water supplies and went through the essential steps in the municipal water treatment process, including segregation, purification and sterilization. They also took part in water purification experiments where they tried purifying mud water with laboratory equipment and handling residues.

Among the student participants were student reporters from the Changzhou Student Reporters Organization. They shared how the activities have taught them to conserve water and enabled them a basic understanding of the city’s municipal water treatment system. Many of them pledged to reduce their water consumption in their daily life and spread the good practice to their family. They were encouraged to customize their own “Water Conservation Scheme” and share it with people around them.
