2.Nanshi Waterworks of Shanghai Chengtou Water Group

Nanshi Waterworks is a part of Shanghai Chengtou Water (Group) Co., Ltd., a water treatment company. It is situated in the riverside region of Huangpu District and has a rich history dating back to its establishment in 1902. With a current designed water supply capacity of 700,000 cubic meters per day, it stands as a century-old tap water facility. It is responsible for providing production and potable water to over 1.5 million residents in downtown Shanghai. In August 2007, the relocation and reconstruction of the Nanshi Waterworks commenced, and it was officially operationalized in July 2009. Leveraging the upgrade and transformation of the original site, the waterworks was revitalized to become the first modern waterworks in Shanghai to achieve comprehensive advanced treatment. It utilizes an innovative combined process involving ozonation with biological activated carbon. Since 2019, Chengtou Water has initiated the construction of the Huangpu Water Supply Demonstration Zone and introduced the concept of “smart supply, agile control, direct drinking, and intelligent service.” Covering an area of approximately 9.5 square kilometers with a permanent population of around 424,000, this demonstration area serves as an exemplar for water supply practices. The Nanshi Waterworks, facilitated by two midway pumping stations within the area, provides water supply services to the entire demonstration zone.

In the same year, Nanshi Waterworks embarked on the construction of a state-of-the-art digital waterworks. This advanced system incorporates elements such as three-dimensional simulation, data interaction, operation simulation, and simulation control. By digitally mapping the actual waterworks, it enables operation simulation, monitoring, diagnosis, prediction, and control, thereby mitigating uncertainties throughout the operational processes. The first phase of this construction endeavor was completed in 2022 and has commenced production and operation. This milestone achievement will establish Nanshi Waterworks as the inaugural digital twin waterworks within Shanghai’s water industry.
