The water that is currently being produced by the recovery system is collected and treated on site. The wastewater treatment plant reduced the chemical concentrations to desirable levels and then discharged the treated water into an existing county sanitation district industrial sewer. In this manner, all fluids produced by the recovery system were treated for disposal or reprocessed.

Cooling towers vary dramatically in their size, with some able to handle no more than about 2,000 gallons per minute (7,500 liters per minute), and the largest able to process more than 100,000 gallons per minute (400,000 liters per minute). The least efficient of such plants reduce the temperature of the water they process by less than 10°F (5°C), and the most efficient, by more than SOT (16°C).

The C4 cycle for concentration of carbon dioxide. The C4 plants reduce their rate of photorespiration by using a C02 concentrating mechanism that enables them to avoid the competition from 02. All species of C4 plants have a characteristic internal leaf anatomy in which a single dense layer of dark green cells surrounds the vascular bundles in the leaves. This bundle sheath is surrounded by a loosely packed layer of... 

The 140°F reflux drum temperature, shown in Fig. 10.3, is the dew point of the vapors leaving the reflux drum. Almost always, we would like to minimize this particular temperature. The lower the reflux drum temperature, the smaller the amount of steam in the off-gas. If the off-gas is H2S and NH3, flowing to a sulfur recovery plant, the steam carried into the sulfur plant reduces the sulfur plant s capacity and efficiency. 

In the alternate interface a heat pump raises the temperature of near-waste heat from the PCU to the temperature at which nine-tenths of the HTE process heat is needed. The decrease in temperature at the heat exchanger that links the HTE plant with the nuclear plant reduces the tritium migration rate by about a factor of 100. In addition to mitigating tritium transport and creep of structures, structural material commodity cost is also reduced. 

Carbon dioxide, 0=C=6 , mp —57°C (5.2 atm), bp —79 °C (sublimes), is obtained from the combustion of carbon and hydrocarbons in excess air or oxygen or by the pyrolysis ( calcination ) of CaCOs (limestone). The photosynthesis in plants reduces CO2 to organic matter, but the similar reduction of CO2 in a nonliving system ( in vitro ) appears to be very difficult. However, CO2 can be reduced electrochemically to methanol, formate, oxalate, methane, and/or CO depending upon the conditions. Numerous transition metal complexes of CO2 are known,which exhibit the modes of metal-C02 bonding depicted in Figure 2. 

Most plants reduce CO2 to carbohydrate according to the well-known Calvin-Benson or C3 pathway, where the initial product of photosynthesis is the 3C compound phosphoglycerate. Fixation of CO 2 to phosphoglycerate occurs with the assistance of the enzyme ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase, which discriminates heavily against C02 (11). Consequently, plants with C3 photosynthesis have 6 values that average -27.0 (12). Plants with the Hatch-Slack or Ci,... 

There are two pathways by which NO can be reduced to NH4. In assimilatory NO reduction, NO J-N is taken up by microorganisms or plants, reduced to NH4, and assimilated into organic nitrogen compounds such as amino acids. The process is inhibited by low concentrations (0.1 p,LL ) of NH4 or organic nitrogen...
