Wastewater−based epidemiology (WBE) has become a key public health surveillance tool. In China, its use has expanded from illicit drugs to emerging contaminants, pathogen warning, and population health assessment. However, uncertainties and ethics remain challenges. This review synthesizes WBE progress in China concerning drug abuse, emerging contaminants risks, infectious diseases early warming, and population health. Proposes a future framework aligned with the 15th Five−Year Plan: network expansion with standardized sample banks, AI−driven data integration, and enhanced early warning and antimicrobial resistance surveillance. This framework aims to support future application of WBE in China.
