On July 23rd, the reporter came to the Nuoba area of Zhuzhou Navigation Terminal to visit the river surface cleaning work here.

Zhuzhou Navigation Power Junction is located in Kongzhou Beach, 8 kilometers south of Lukou District, Zhuzhou City. It was completed and put into operation in 2006.

Climbing up from the west side of the dam, the sparkling Xiangjiang River catches your eye. Climbing to the top of the dam, there was a magnificent scene of water and sky in front of me.

On the south side of the dam, a floating trash rack about 400 meters long floats on the river surface. We mainly rely on trash racks to intercept and collect various types of sewage on the river surface, and regularly clean them up, "said Huang Wencheng, Director of the Safety Technology Department of Zhuzhou Avionics.

Walk east at the dam crest for about 50 meters, then descend several sections of the hanging ladder, and the reporter gradually approaches the trash rack. The trash rack is about 1.5 meters wide, and at first glance it looks like a corridor. In the distance, a cleaning ship is operating, and two workers operate cleaning buckets to grab the debris into the ship.

Seen from the crest of the dam, the unimpressive waste residue is particularly abrupt when it is close to it - large in area and large in quantity, with branches, plastic foam, clothes and other kinds of waste residue mixed together.

According to reports, the surface debris of the Xiangjiang River mainly comes from various tributaries and is washed away by floods or mudslides. These sludge may not seem harmful, but they accumulate, accumulate, accumulate, rot, and ferment, which will have a destructive impact on water quality, shipping, and power generation.

We regularly clean up the sewage on the river surface. Generally, during the rainy season, when the water volume is high, there will be more sewage, and the cleaning frequency will be higher. In winter, when the water is low, it is relatively less. "Huang Wencheng said," I just cleaned it up two weeks ago, and it rained a few days ago and accumulated some.

The river cleaning work may seem mechanical and simple, but it is not easy to do in the long run.

During the dry season, it's okay, but during the flood season, I occasionally come across some huge tree trunks. "In Huang Wencheng's impression, the largest tree trunk I have ever seen has a diameter of about 1.5 meters and a length of seven or eight meters, which is about the size of a sewage ship.

Because the trunk of the tree was too heavy and large, the cleaning team had to first saw it in sections and then transport it out in blocks. It took two or three busy days to solve this big problem.

Zhou Xianliang, general manager of Zhuzhou Avionics Branch, introduced that Zhuzhou Avionics Hub is located at the gateway of Xiangjiang River entering Changzhutan. Interception of these waste residues is critical to ensure the safety of drinking water in Changsha Zhuzhou Xiangtan and the quality of water in Xiangjiang River and Yangtze River. In recent years, Zhuzhou Aviation Power has cleaned up over 500 tons of water surface debris every year. On average, it is over 1 ton per day.
