Projects:

Name of assignment or project: Water Environment Risk Assessment and Early warning Technology Research and Demonstration Project in The three Gorges Reservoir Area and Upstream Watershed

Year: 2012 to present  

Client: Chinese Ministry of Environmental Protection

Name of assignment or project:  The Water quality model  for Wuhan City

Year:  2008 to 2009

Location:  Wuhan City, Hubei Province

Client: Hydro Qual , Inc.

Main project features: This project built a comprehensive water model platform based on GIS which could quantitatively simulate the distribution of pollutant and the variation of the water quality. The modeling system could be used as an efficient tool for improving water quality and source water emergency warning.

Positions held: Project Leader

Name of assignment or project: Study on water quality and quantity coupled water resources allocation in the middle and lower reaches of Han River

Year:  2008 to present

Location:  Wuhan City, Hubei Province

Client: Changjiang Water Resources Committee

Main project features:  The project built a water quality and water quantity coupled model to quantitatively study on the changes of water quantity and water quality and provided support for optimizing water resource allocation.

Positions held: Project Leader

Activities performed: Including water environment capacity estimation, hydrologic condition simulation, water eco-system simulation, and overall model design and verification.

Name of assignment or project:  Research on water resource allocation in Zhejiang Province

Year:  2004-2009

Location: Zhejiang Province

Client: Department of Science and Technology of Zhejiang Province

Main project features:  This project focused on the water eco-system evolution and its connection in Zhejiang Province as well as allocation of water resources to balance the water supply system. The quantification of the importance of water resource in society development and eco-system construction will then be considered as well as sustainable development management of the water resource.

Positions held: Project Leader

Activities performed: Including research on the surface transport process of the basin water circulation under different environment, and hydrological similarity and differences in information system of different temporal and spatial hydrological information. Study on the coordinated development of residential, industry and ecological water usage in water resource exploit. Research on water quality and quantity coupling process of the river network hydraulic process. Based on water resource supply allocation principle, using basin water quality and quantity coupling model to estimate an optimized allocation scheme.

Name of assignment or project: Feasibility Research on Water Resources Assessment in Pengze Nuclear Power Plant Site, Jiangxi Province

Year: 2006-2008

Location:  Pengze County, Jiangxi Province

Client: Jiangxi Nuclear Power Plant Project Preparatory Office

Main project features: This is a feasibility study on Pengze Nuclear Power Plant discharge. This project used numerical simulations to predict the distributions of low-level radioactive waste and the thermal water discharge and also provided technical references for future discharge scenarios.  

Positions held: Project Leader

Activities performed: (i) collection of general condition of project and basin, (ii) based on mathematical function, using numerical discretization method to establish 2-dimensional river flow, low-level radioactive waste water, thermal discharge mathematical model. (iii) based on substantive water level, flow velocity and water temperature, estimation and analyze  parameter.(iv)based on different condition to simulate low-level radioactive waste water and thermal discharge separately.(v)based on simulation result, analyzing low-level radioactive waste water and thermal discharge impact separately, providing primary conclusion and suggestion.
