Advancing Sustainable Data Centers Through Cooling Tower Blowdown Recovery, Water Reuse & Heat Utilization
3:30 pm
- Optimizing cooling-tower cycles of concentration to reduce blowdown volumes, meet increasingly stringent discharge requirements and progress toward minimized or zero liquid discharge
- Treating and reusing recovered blowdown water as cooling-tower makeup water, process water and, where technically appropriate, within power-generation and emissions-reduction systems
- Utilizing available heat to reduce freshwater demand, energy consumption and associated emissions while improving operational efficiency
- Transforming cooling-tower blowdown from a waste stream into a valuable resource to strengthen environmental performance, regulatory relationships, community confidence and the public reputation of data center operations
