Core Insights - The "Taihu Light" integrated dredging platform has been fully operational since August 15, 2023, and is expected to dredge over 10 million cubic meters in the next six years, equivalent to the sediment of approximately 4,000 standard swimming pools [4][9] - This platform is an upgraded version of the "Taihu Star," with a daily dredging capacity increased by 1.6 times [4][9] Dredging Operations - The platform consists of multiple connected vessels forming a "floating factory" that integrates dredging, screening, dewatering, and purification functions [5] - The dredging process involves the "Taihu Junqing 2" vessel using a suction head to remove sediment, which is then transported through a pipeline to the "Taihu Light 1" screening vessel [6][7] Water Treatment and Environmental Impact - The "Taihu Light" has achieved the goal of not occupying land for sediment and not discharging wastewater onto land, significantly reducing land use and enhancing ecological efficiency [9][10] - The platform's water treatment system can process wastewater onboard, achieving a total nitrogen content of less than 1 mg/L, which is much stricter than land-based treatment standards [10] Technological Innovations - The platform employs advanced technologies for stable connections between vessels, ensuring effective operation even in challenging weather conditions [11] - A centralized control system with over 300 sensors allows for real-time monitoring and operation by a single operator, enhancing efficiency [12] Industry Development and Collaboration - The development of the "Taihu Light" is supported by a collaborative effort among 12 core manufacturers across dredging, shipbuilding, and water treatment industries [14] - The platform represents a significant leap in domestic dredging technology, moving from reliance on imported equipment to leading in innovation and efficiency [13][14]
