China’s wastewater volume is comparable to the Yellow River’s annual flow With the largest population in the world, China is easily the top ranked country by the amount of wastewater produced.
In 2012, the total discharge of wastewater in the country amounted to 68.5 billion tonnes which is in volume terms comparable to the annual flow of the Yellow River of 58 billion m3 per annum. Discharged wastewater comprises of discharge from domestic use (e.g. human waste, washing water, urban runoff) and industrial wastewater.
These are often labelled “point-source pollution” as there are specific points where the wastewater is discharged. Contrary to point-source wastewater, nonpoint-source wastewater comes from diffused sources such as agriculture, land runoff, precipitation, drainage and seepage, etc.
China is HUGE. If we can get a foothold here, EMC may become a $3-$5 stock over the next 2 years imho
