To what extent can plants be "eco-friendly"?

The extent of God's God.

Representatives of domestic water giants, led by BEWG, were very silent in the Jiagu laboratory, rarely chatting or even talking except for visiting the purification pond that uses aquatic plants to purify sewage, and most of the time, they would even look at Jiagu with resentful eyes to show one aquatic plant purification plan after another.

Yes, one scheme after another.

Dozens of super aquatic purification plants, such as reeds, rush grass, floating Buddha grass, evergreen iris, aquatic canna, elophylla, etc., constitute hundreds of aquatic plant purification and restoration communities, and hundreds of super microbial colonies, respectively, for agricultural sewage, domestic sewage, some industrial sewage and other efficient degradation......

No matter how rational the industry is, it is impossible to calm down with this kind of sudden behavior.

There are many technical experts in the delegation, and some have studied biological purification methods for many years, but the domestic sewage purification system has always been to absorb the nutrients of Western countries as its own responsibility.

But that doesn't mean they don't know what's in it.

In the next few days, a group of people stared at the water quality of the purification pond with red eyes as if they were living in a test site for aquatic plant purification sewage.

"Purification Pond No. 003, on the third day, the disappearance rate of heavy metal ions reached 60%!"

"On the fourth day of No. 016, the filtration rate of suspended particles increased by 30% for every 10% increase in the coverage rate of the underground stem network formed by underground stems and roots!"

"On the fifth day of No. 038 Purification Pond, the degradation of nutrients by the microbial community and the oxygen delivery in the rhizosphere zone tended to be balanced, and the pollutant degradation efficiency of plant roots was doubled!"

"Purification Pond No. 054, on the sixth day, in the water body with severe eutrophication, the aquatic plant community secreted algae-suppressing substances, forcing planktonic algae to die, and further purifying the water quality ......"

One report after another, as if it was smeared with chili pepper water, stimulated the representatives of all parties to tears.

Biological purification, whether it is microorganisms or aquatic plants, the advantages are needless to say, the focus is on the defects - because it is a living organism, biological activity is greatly affected by environmental factors such as temperature, oxygen, moisture, pH value, etc., and is uncontrollable; compared with physical and chemical methods, the time of biological purification is generally longer; when the pollutant concentration is too low, biological purification may plummet, and the residual pollutants cannot be removed......

However, all of this has been overcome by the "super creatures" of Jiagu Laboratory, whose super environmental adaptability and super high efficiency have made the representatives of other water giants stunned their eyes.

What makes them most eye-catching is the low cost of the aquatic plant purification solution.

Despite state-of-the-art wastewater treatment technology that allows access to ultra-pure water, most wastewater treatment plants still use traditional wastewater treatment processes, such as biochemical secondary treatment, and in some cases, water utilities even intentionally or unintentionally reduce the quality of the effluent in order to reduce costs.

For example, the water pollution incident that broke out in April this year caused Veolia to fall into a crisis of public opinion, which was largely caused by this.

Veolia is the first foreign water giant to enter China, the world's water giant has had many safety accidents in China over the years, in fact, Veolia's early years of water projects in the national layout, now almost no profit - on the one hand, this is due to the lack of water price reform, on the other hand, is not caused by the high cost of sewage purification?

When Jiagu's biological purification system catches up with the traditional sewage treatment technology system in terms of efficiency, its cost advantage is vividly reflected - according to the data given by Jiagu, its infrastructure investment, operating costs and energy consumption are 1/3~1/5 of traditional treatment methods, and some schemes have excellent bioeconomic benefits.

If you want to say how advanced the technology is, how innovative it is, the water giants who are well versed in domestic propaganda routines may still disagree, but if you want to say that the cost has been greatly reduced, absolutely no one will remain quiet.

At this moment, they deeply felt the heart of Jiagu's opponent that "the technology is more advanced than yours, the products are better than yours, and the special cost is lower than yours".

Fortunately, looking at Jiagu's arrangement, they have the opportunity to make other opponents feel the same heartache - nonsense, Jiagu is so generous to open the visit, if it is not for the hope of finding a partner, what is the picture.

The technical experts of water giants such as BEWG continue to do verification, but the person in charge has already approached Qi Zheng.

In fact, Qi Zheng is also waiting for them.

During the Twelfth Five-Year Plan period, the awareness of environmental protection gradually awakened, and the state began to take special water environment remediation actions for municipal wastewater and industrial wastewater, and the water market was booming, with a market size of one trillion yuan. Surprisingly, however, this has not perpetuated the myth of foreign-funded water companies, on the contrary, the market share of foreign-funded companies has been shrinking.

This is because the environmental protection industry is complex, and it is not a simple economic issue, but also a social and political issue.

All municipal projects have one characteristic - government-driven. In the water market, not to mention that Jiagu's grass platform team rushed into battle, water giants like BEWG also have to fight in the face of large-scale water projects.

In this big market, Jiagu needs to lead the way, especially in the situation where state-owned enterprises are gradually wading into the tide.

Therefore, in the face of the representatives of domestic water companies who came to him almost at the same time, Qi Zheng was very simple: "In the large-scale water environment comprehensive treatment project in Hubei Province, Jiagu is willing to cooperate in bidding. My bottom line is that Jiagu will provide a full suite of bio-decontamination and remediation services, and will no longer invest in it, but will get a 25% stake in the project......"

The large-scale water environment comprehensive treatment project in Hubei Province adopts the EPC general contracting model, that is, the general contracting mode of the project including design, procurement, construction, etc., and Jiagu has neither the ability nor the willingness to do the general contracting construction.

Qi Zheng's original intention was to use the municipal public relations resources of his partners to train the team and familiarize Jiagu with the operation process of large-scale environmental protection municipal projects.

Frankly speaking, Qi Zheng's condition is really a bit of a scumbag - he does not contribute, but the proportion of shares can only be increased, not reduced, and whoever has better conditions will cooperate with whom.

But he is scummy and clear, I think that the high-efficiency and low-cost biological purification technology system is worth the price, and I do not pursue a dominant position, if I can't accept it, it is easy to say and disperse.

However, representatives of several water utilities were silent for more than ten seconds, and no one protested.

"The share of the cooperative bidding will be put aside for the first time. Mr. Fang of BEWG laughed and said, "Dong Qi, what I want to ask is, in addition to the bidding project in Hubei Province, is Jiagu willing to open up technical cooperation?"

Being able to become a leader in the domestic water market means that they are not less staking ground. Compared with municipal projects, the treatment of industrial wastewater is more complex and requires more optimization.

Jiagu has mastered well-established alternatives to biological treatment of industrial wastewater such as beer wastewater, paper wastewater, textile wastewater, oil refining wastewater, aquaculture and feed and food processing wastewater, and if new technologies can be introduced, even if some links are optimized, the cost can be greatly reduced.

Compared with the cooperation of a project, they are more excited about it.

"Of course. In the field of water affairs, or in the field of environmental protection, Jiagu does not plan to operate with heavy assets. Qi Zheng raised his eyebrows, smiled, and said: "In fact, we plan to select some long-term strategic partners to provide operational services related to the aquatic plant purification and restoration system, so as to help partners reduce production costs, improve production efficiency, and reduce the burden of their business activities on the environment." ”

To put it bluntly, the strategic positioning of Jiagu's environmental protection business is not to do specific operations, but only to be a platform for technology output.

This positioning is undoubtedly the most in line with the wishes of several water giants, and the atmosphere is lively all of a sudden.

"Chairman Qi, we are willing to be the first to reach a strategic cooperative relationship with Jiagu......

"Mr. Fang, you are really good at laughing, who can be the first to reach an agreement with Jiagu, it is not a matter of will......"

"Qi Dong, we are the first to have a holding of water and solid waste projects in more than 95 cities across the country, which can form a good complementary ...... with Jiagu"

Qi Zhengyi bowed his head one by one, and then said with a smile: "In the field of water affairs, you are the big guys, Jiagu has just started, and I hope to develop hand in hand with you." ”

Qi Zheng said very modestly, and even had the suspicion of being a thigh.

But it's really hard to say who is on whose thighs.

Throughout the domestic water industry, and even the entire environmental protection industry, active policies and lack of technology are the main characteristics. It can be said that at present, the entire environmental protection industry has not formed technical barriers.

Leading enterprises seem to be "big and complete", basically involving solid waste, water treatment, ecological restoration, etc., but like Jiagu, they pay out of their own pockets to do scientific research, deepen their cultivation in the field of bioremediation and rebuild a new system, and they can't imitate it.

In other words, Jiagu is destined to win a place in the market with its own strength.

After determining the general direction, Qi Zheng did not continue to discuss in detail. He is the chairman of Jiagu, and if he goes up to fight, then there is too little room for turnaround.

Qi Zheng said steadily: "In this way, we are just preparing to set up Jiagu Environmental Protection Company, and everyone is at the right time, so you might as well come and join in the fun." ”

"Jiagu Environmental Protection?Is Chairman Qi finally ready to separate the environmental protection business?"

Qi Zheng nodded, and said solemnly: "Yes." We are not only separating the environmental protection business, but also preparing to open more technological achievements to the outside world - heavy metal super rich plants, super aquatic purification plants, 'plastic-deplasticizing bacteria' that can decompose plastics, and switchgrass ...... that can grow bioplastics."

"Hiss......"

Several people at the scene were trembling.

For people in the water industry and environmental protection circles, Jiagu's biological treatment plan sounds like black technology.

And with Jiagu's urine, if it can be opened to the outside world, it will definitely reach the level of commercialization.

Super-rich plants, super aquatic plants are easy to understand, but what the hell is the "plastic-dissolving bacteria" that can decompose plastics and the switchgrass that can grow bioplastics?

The literal meaning alone brings them more stimulation.

Mr. Fang of BEWG muttered: "Is the environmental protection industry going to usher in cross-era changes?"
