Several major factors that determine the feasibility of using reject heat in commercial aquatic facilities are reliability, water quality, temperature, and lack of pollutants. Although technology exists for overcoming special requirements of these factors, a system that uses reject heat will require more capital and management than a conventional system with lower output will require. A careful analysis of investment and operating costs is recommended. (1 drawing, 1 photo)
