06-02: Cooling Tower Blowdown Limitations: Case Studies of New Wastewater Environmental ImportanceFor many Air Liquide facilities, the wastewater permit limitations have become stricter (Total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, total residual chlorine, copper, and arsenic). This paper will describe the new wastewater permit parameters, the method(s) that were used to resolve the issues, and the cost of justification.
