Reuse of Wastewater for Cooling Tower Makeup
• Waste water requires treatment to remove suspended solids (TSS) & insoluble organics
• Filtered to remove TSS that would foul softener• Need high efficiency softening (HES)• Dissolved solids (TDS) must be low enough to
permit ion exchange softening• Natural high silica and alkalinity desirable• Ammonia and soluble organics do not have to
be removed with ZLD / silica chemistry

Cost Benefits ofZLD Tower Operation
• High efficiency softening lowers salt use (4# per CF resin) and brine waste flow (< 2% MU)
• Typical softening cost of $0.12 per 1000 gallons tower makeup
• Both equipment and operating cost is 10-15% of conventional ZLD / discharge reduction systems
• Optimum water use and discharge reduction• Reduced wastewater discharge obtained with
use of waste heat (low carbon footprint)

ZLD / Silica Chemistry Expanded Options
• Permits use of alternative water sources such as municipal / industrial reuse, RO reject, and high TDS water sources for tower makeup
• Silica inhibits metals from corrosion by high TDS (azoles needed for copper / ammonia)
• Expands metal selection / cost economy• Soft water eliminates scale limitations and
permits higher temperatures• Biostatic chemistry mitigates micro-bio activity

Copper Corrosion Inhibition Study(Azoles in High Ammonia / ZLD Water)
• Study with 150,000 mg/L TDS / pH 10 / soft tower water inhibited by silica and azoles exposed to ammonia (200-400 mg/L)
• Rapid uninhibited corrosion by ammonia• Azoles highly effective for inhibiting ammonia
attack at high pH / TDS• High pH treatment method increases azoles
effectiveness / cost efficiency

CMAS Study Summary
• Uninhibited localized corrosion rates with ammonia and high TDS were 2.5 mpy for copper and 80 mpy for zinc (room temperature)
• Silica inhibited localized corrosion rates for zinc and aluminum were negligible from ammonia / high TDS; copper was not well inhibited
• Copper was inhibited by TTA to negligible corrosion rate from high ammonia / high TDS

Cooling Tower Using High Ammonia (Reuse) Waste Water for Makeup
• High ammonia (34 mg/L) “reuse” makeup water• High hardness and phosphates limit traditional COC
(concentrations of chemistry) of makeup in tower• High TDS limited traditional corrosion protection• Copper chiller and absorber tubes at risk from ammonia• Required multimedia filtered and HES softened makeup• ZLD / high pH / high TDS with silica & TTA inhibitors • Ammonia stripped to < 0.5 mg/L at 60 COC by chemistry• Corrosion of copper inhibited to 0.007 mpy.• Micro-bio growth (organics) mitigated (10o Col / ml).

Tower Ammonia StrippingIn a waste stream, ammonium ions exist in equilibrium with ammonia.
1. Below pH 7, virtually all the ammonia is soluble ammonia ions.2. Above pH 12, virtually all the ammonia is present as a
dissolved gas.3. Between pH 7 and 12, both ammonium ions and dissolved gas
exist together. 4. Percentage of dissolved gas increases with pH / temperature. 5. Elevated pH and temperature favor removal of ammonia from
solution as the gas when water is scrubbed over a tower.
