Abstract

In this Chapter, we adopted the integrated policies to minimize water pollutants flowing into Miyun Reservoir based on two sub-models. Particularly, we improved the economic models so that they are more adaptive to the specific characteristics and the actual situation of suburbs of big cities in China. Based on the results of the simulation, the efficiency of wet methane fermentation technology is not sufficient to treat the high concentrations of wastes in the water and meet the requirements of future economic development in the catchment area. Especially, the pig farming industry requires the introduction of advanced technology to allow simultaneous pursuit of environmental preservation and economic development.
