Blowdown Recovery System for Cooling Tower Water Treatment
- National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Golden, CO (United States)
From 2014-2017, the U.S. General Services Administration's (GSA's) average nationwide water rates increased 41%. Rapidly escalating costs, mandated water-reduction targets, and the fact that an average of 28% of commercial office building water use is associated with heating and cooling led the GSA Green Proving Ground program to select alternative water treatment technologies for in-field validation. This report summarizes the latest alternative water treatment evaluation completed in 2022 - a Blowdown Recovery System for Cooling Tower Water Treatment. This Green Proving Ground program project assessed the performance of an alternative water treatment system provided by Aqualogix for treating cooling tower blowdown at the Lloyd D. George U.S. Courthouse in Las Vegas, Nevada.
