Abstract:GB50014-2021 Standard for design of outdoor wastewater engineering was published by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of the People’s Republic of China (MOHURD) on Apr. 9th, 2021 and went into effect on Oct. 1st, 2021. The amended GB50014-2021 systematically regulated the constituents of outdoor wastewater engineering, establishing a solid legal standard for outdoor wastewater engineering design. Incorporating years of municipal design experience, the author analyzed and discussed the design, construction, and alternative applications of outdoor wastewater engineering systems in GB50014-2021.
