Abstract:8 This study presents the application of an integrated water management strategy at two 9 large Australian manufacturing companies that are contrasting in terms of their respective 10 products. The integrated strategy, consisting of water audit, pinch analysis and membrane 11 process application, was deployed in series to systematically identify water conservation 12 opportunities. Initially, a water audit was deployed to completely characterize all water 13 streams found at each production site. This led to the development of a water balance 14 diagram which, together with water test results, served as a basis for subsequent enquiry. 15After the water audit, commercially available water pinch software was utilized to identify 16 possible water reuse opportunities, some of which were subsequently implemented on site.

“…Aufgrund der Komplexität der Kühlwasserzusammensetzung, resultierend aus der Vielzahl eingesetzter Kühlwasserbehandlungschemikalien und produktionsbedingter Stoffeinträge, ist eine Rückgewinnung des Kühlwassers aus der Absalzung mit verfügbaren Verfahren technisch bzw. ökonomisch bislang nicht sinnvoll darstellbar – . Dies gilt insbesondere für Kühlwässer mit direktem Produktkontakt und dem damit verbundenen prozessbedingten Eintrag von Feststoffen (Zunder) und Öl sowie der verwendeten Härtestabilisatoren, Korrosionsschutzmittel, Biozide und teilweise Flockungsmittel.…”

Zur Behandlung (säurehaltiger) Prozesswässer in der Stahlindustrie bietet die Membrantechnologie vielversprechendes Potenzial. Innovative Rohrmembranen wurden untersucht, bei der maßgeschneidert Polyelektrolyte mittels Layer‐by‐layer‐Beschichtung auf einer keramischen Supportmembran aufgetragen werden. Als weiteres Verfahren wird die membranunterstützte kapazitive Deionsiation für die Aufbereitung von Kühlwasser betrachtet, die nach dem Prinzip der elektrostatischen Sorption Ionen bei geringer Spannung abtrennt. Über die positiven Erfahrungen aus zwei industriellen Anwendungen wird berichtet.

“…Over the past decades, several researchers have studied different methods to reduce the cooling process' fresh water footprint (Altman et al, 2012;Matson & Harris, 1979;Rebhun & Engel, 1988;You, Tseng, Guo, & Yang, 1999;Zhang, Zeng, Ye, Chen, & Yan, 2008). Many of these studies focused on the reuse of CTBD in the cooling tower itself (Frick, F eris, & Tessaro, 2014;Rebhun & Engel, 1988;You et al, 1999;Zhang et al, 2007).…”

Since reuse of CTBD requires electric conductivity (EC) values below 1000 lS/cm , the majority of these studies focused on desalination of CTBD by physicochemical water treatment technologies (Zhang et al, 2008;Altman et al, 2012;van Limpt & van der Wal, 2015;L€ owenberg et al, 2015). Various studies showed that physicochemical CTBD desalination is hampered by conditioning chemicals (CC) that are present in CTBD (Greenlee, Testa, Lawler, Freeman, & Moulin, 2010;L€ owenberg et al, 2015;Sweity, Oren, Ronen, & Herzberg, 2013).…”

Large volumes of freshwater are used globally for cooling towers. The reuse of discharged cooling tower water in cooling towers itself could mitigate freshwater scarcity problems. Prior to its reuse, the cooling tower blowdown has to be desalinated. However, physicochemical desalination techniques are hampered by conditioning chemicals (CC) that are added to the cooling tower water circuit to prevent corrosion, mineral scaling, and biofouling and can damage physicochemical desalination equipment. The potential of constructed wetlands (CWs) for the cost-effective removal of these CC prior to desalination is discussed in this review. The characteristics of CWs that determine their suitability for the removal of CC from cooling tower blowdown are elucidated, such as multiple removal pathways working simultaneously. In addition, specific challenges for the design of a constructed wetland for cooling tower blowdown treatment are reviewed, such as configuration options, the toxicity of CC, and the formation and removal of harmful byproducts.
