Suitability of the Hospital Wastewater Treatment System in Binh Duong Province to the Environmental Carrying Capacity

As the number of healthcare facilities increases, stringent management of wastewater treatment systems becomes imperative. This study investigates a wastewater treatment system designed for a general clinic in Bình Dương Province, Vietnam, which complies with Vietnamese environmental standards. The clinic, located in Bến Cát City, serves approximately 200 patients per day and generates an average wastewater volume of 1.7m³/day. The treatment system, with a capacity of 10m³/day, employs a combination of biological and chemical methods, including anoxic and aerobic processes, to efficiently reduce pollutants. Results indicate that the treated wastewater meets the QCVN 28:2010/BTNMT, column A standards, ensuring minimal environmental impact when discharged into the Thi Tinh River. The study demonstrates the system's effectiveness in managing hospital wastewater, contributing to environmental protection and public health.
