| Abstract: | The Zhujiang (Pearl) River Delta is the rapid economic development region in China since the opening and reform door policy
was carried out in 1978. Being the rapid development of industry and city, the impact on the aquatic environmental quality
was significant. The pollution caused the water quality descended and the ecological system degraded, and also impeded the
economic development. The characteristics and problems of the aquatic environment are: the capacity of aquatic environment
is large but hasn’t been utilized rationally, the water quality is influenced by saline sea water and tide current, the main
pollutants are organic matter and the pollution is going heavier, the concentration of pollutants change seasonally. The countermeasures
of aquatic environmental protection are: carrying out the environmental functional regionalization and controlling the total
amount of pollutant discharge, revising the industrial structure and making a rational industrial arrangement, raising the
rate of waste water treatment and making a full assessment of the water conservancy project. |
