Case Study
Duke Energy selects HERO™ Membrane Process for ZLD Application
Project Overview The cooling tower blow down volume is about 1675 gpm saturated with silica, high hardness and other constituents. A thermal brine concentrator for this capacity will be a costly affair in addition to high power and operating costs. A conventional membrane pro- cess can not function under these conditions due to silica and other organic limitation. The permitting of the power plant was based on evaporation pond. Customer ac
