Modern municipal engineering not only presents advanced municipal technology, but also intuitively conveys harmonious relationship between people and the city, and between people and the environment. It is based on the deep thoughts of related technologies such as sewage treatment, resource recycling, energy saving, automation and IT etc. and the organic integration of people and nature. The idea of the Concept Plant and Ecological Complexes in Yixing is just the outcome based on the concept above. It is a combination of demo Sewage treatment, environmental educational base, modern agricultural base, and ecological cycle demonstration base, by using China ( Yixing ) urban sewage treatment plant with forward looking technology as a core concept to support.

A new city creates new opportunities. A WWTP is not only needed as a solution to a problem, it also offers opportunities for re-use of various sub-streams. Waste water consists of a mixture of precious pure drinking water (used as a carrier / transport medium), mixed with a large diversity of reusable raw materials. The opportunities of a new city: creating new energy streams, which provide all kinds of new products. Among these products the WWTP will operate as an energy plant where clean water and energy products can be distilled.

This area is going to be a great new park for the new technology city that emerges at this location. The question is, what the appearance of this park has to be in the future. At present, the area consists of agriculture, dominated by rice cultivation and fish farming with a characteristic pattern of structuring ridges and aqueducts. This urbanization causes a number of problems, but it also creates opportunities. One of the problems is that building a new city on a wetland area (sponge) causes water extraction from the soil, resulting in subsidence. The extension of the stone surface (pavement) leads to flooding in periods of heavy rainfall, because the water can’t seep into the ground. The old villages are being rapidly replaced by new urban structures. Historic landscape patterns and habitation forms disappear. The farming culture is slowly disappearing and therefore the connection between men and landscape takes on a whole different meaning.

The structure of the bigger plan area consists of 3 beautiful typical isles containing fish farms and rice fields. These structures are connected with the landscape underneath. You can see the history of the different stories the landscape has in these isles. For the future it is important to connect the new structures with the existing ones and create a good working system. The structure of the plan area isn’t so clear. Caused by urbanization and the new highway the existing structures were cut in more pieces. What you see are the remaining parts. There is some round structure that can form a new isle, like the 3 other isles.

Essence Concept Waterbrain: 1. In the brain, various local custom cycles are being developed and tested. They can be copied into the Chinese countryside after rigorous testing. 2. One globally proven concept, where rice and fish farming can be made sustainable -- by means of a waterharmonica -- can be copied directly to one of the islands in the study area. 3. The waterbrain (the outer shell) has a positive impact on the environment through the discharge of living, clean water in shallow surface. This causes the occurrence of naturally spawning grounds. A water system with natural cleaning power. 4. The outer shell (cortex of the brain) provides water storage. 5. Experiences and improvements in the system can be easily implemented in the test set-ups, so this knowledge from the Yixing knowledge centre, can be distributed. 6. The concept of the Waterbrain is embedded in the existing historic landscape.

In the Brain wave a series of constructed, natural processes will be employed. From growing Daphnia to filter suspended material, bacteria. Snails consuming organics, wetlands functioning as phototropic biofilmreactors, and, fish ponds with fish feeding on the Daphnia and algae, grown on the treated waste water. this is the diagram how we can use the purified water from WWTP in a more sustainable fish production in the area. The largest purification effort comes from the WWTP. With a little extra effort, huge profits of fish farming and the environment can be achieved.

This food chain approach works as follows: The treated waste water is used to cultivate Daphnia. About 10 -20 % from the Daphnia is harvested daily. The water flows through ponds with water plants to become fit for fish to live in. This fish will come in from the surrounding waters, attracted by the smell and odour of the well treated waste water. The fish will grow, spawn .The off-spring will spread into the neighbouring rivers, lakes and other water bodies and birds will come and eat the occasional fish. The water of the WWTP provides a more ecological fish farming system in the surrounding and can be an example for other areas.

The WWTP Centre will not only be a place for treating waste water. It will be the first experience centre for new technologies. Learning and playing by guiding people through the brain. The building is wrapped arround the WWTP. Visitors move from one big hallway to another one and experience the different parts of the cleaning process. Moving their way forward they discover the different products that gained back from the wastewater. It is nice to give visitors also an inside view in the laboratorium and give them the oportunity to be a real scientist.

The positive point in this brain building are: people don’t smell the wastewater because they are inside. It is safe and dry and the building can be used for several gains like congresses, workshops student training programs etc. The hallways are on a heightened level so that the whole cleaning process can be watched from above. From the WWTP centre to the facility centre there is a enclosed boulevard. People can walk dry and safe from one centre to the other without being bothered by bad weater conditions. Because they are above the landscape they have a very beautiful view on the park.

In the Netherlands we have a very succesfull formula called Intratuin. It is not only a garden centre but it is an experience in and by itself. You can spend your whole day. The facility centre could be like this. Starting to offer people breakfast, beautiful subtropical gardens, and on there way they can buy the plants & pots decoration they want. The facility centre will be a hot spot in the park.

Visitors can park their car in the building and visit the inside and outside gardens. The facility centre also will be used for conceptual forms of building crops flowers and trees. We suggest hydroculture and test areas for sludge organic matter. The plants and trees can be sold in this garden centre. because of the limited space we sugest to use vertical walls for growing the plants. There will be a high tech installation heat and cooling pumps directy connected with the WWTP science centre. Energie produced from the WWTP can be used for this garden centre.

The science & technology villages are situated in the most northern part of the plan area. This was already a separate part of the whole landscape structure and by making it an isle, it gets its own identity. It is the perfect place to invite your foreign international researchers to stay and develop their ideas. The accommodation not only provides in living space but at the same time the building also has a large working space. Living and working in one building. The houses are eco friendly and energy neutral because they make use of the biogas & electricity coming from the WWTP.

In the concept we want to introduce wild flower meadows. This does not only produce a smile on your face while walking by, it is also nessesary for pollinators like bees. The meadows provide a lot of pollen for insects. Insects are needed in a good ecological environment. The meadows produce a lot of flower seeds like the photo above. Flower seeds can be harvested and stored and sold to customers that want to have the same kind of meadows in their projects. The gardens in the brain are test areas in order to explore which possibilities there are in wild flower meadows.The gardens have a show en sale function too. In the tourist shop visitors can buy there one flower mix they have seen in the show gardens. In this concept 4 different mixes are introduced.
