    ZLD Zero Liquid Discharge

    ODAYS FAST-PACED POWER GENERATION MARKET REQUIRES

    TIMELY SOLUTIONS IN THE DESIGN, BUILDING AND COMMISSIONING OF NEW PLANTS. THE PERMITTING PROCESS CAN BE STREAMLINED BY EMPLOYING A ZERO LIQUID DISCHARGE (ZLD) SYSTEM. ZLD INTEGRATES WATER, WASTEWATER AND CHEMICAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS, INCORPORATING ALL WASTEWATER STREAMS WITHIN THE POWER PLANT.

    SUCH AN APPROACH GIVES ADDED FLEXIBILITY IN SITE SELECTION. A SITE ORIGINALLY DEEMED UNSUITABLE DUE TO INADEQUATE WASTEWATER DISPOSAL FACILITIES OR TIGHT ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS MAY BECOME VIABLE WHEN ZLD TECHNOLOGY IS UTILIZED.

    greatest limit allowed by the recirculation water chemistry, the surface condenser tube construction, or regulations. Ultimately, regulations control many aspects of system design, including the level of TDS in the drift (PM10). Ondeo Degremont ZLD experts are familiar with TDS limits and other design influences such as:
    Source and quality of the water or wastewater used for cooling tower and BFW makeup Cooling Tower evaporation and drift rates in both hot and cold weather conditions Wetted surfaces material of construction within the recirculation water loop HRSG and Evaporative Cooler operation Expected plant operating mode (i.e. base load, peaks, etc.)

    designers are experts in power generation water supply. They are knowledgeable in the sources and characteristics of plant wastewater, the operational limits of the Cooling Tower, and the construction materials of wet surfaces within the recirculation water loop. All of these factors can effect the design, cost and operations of a Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) System. In a ZLD design, the Cooling Tower is in essence the trash can to which all wastes are eventually recycled. The tower is cycled up to the

    highly efficient, the DensaDeg is used to control recirculation water chemical constituents like calcium, silica, phosphate, TOC and suspended solids. In most situations, the bulk of the wastewater flow treated through the DensaDeg Clarifier can be returned to the Cooling Tower. A portion of the DensaDeg clarifier effluent is further treated by Reverse Osmosis (RO) for control of the TDS in the Cooling Tower and as a means of concentrating the resulting wastewater. This wastewater is further treated in a Brine Concentrator (shown bottom right). Since reverse osmosis brine waste is the concen-

    trated liquid stream requiring final treatment, it is desirable to minimize the amount of brine produced in order to reduce total costs.

    rivers or other surface supplies. In addition, available wastewaters may serve as the primary source of makeup water to a power plant. Such wastewaters may be generated by an adjacent industry, or may be municipal effluent. Each poses unique treatment requirements that are considered in ZLD system design by Ondeo Degremont power generation supply experts. The heart of the Sidestream Treatment System (SST) is the DensaDeg High Rate Clarifier

    designs. It incorporates all make-up and recycled streams, an iterative processas some of the recycled wastewaters will change in quality as the tower is cycled up. The ability of the material balance spreadsheet to respond to changing conditions is critical in optimizing the size and cost of an Ondeo Degremont ZLD System. Certain recirculation water chemical limits need to be respected when designing for zero liquid discharge. Ondeo Degremont design engineers utilize special software to establish recirculation water design limits and predict their effect on scaling and corrosion within the recirculation loop. With any ZLD system, a chemical program needs to be tailored for the most effective treatment scheme. Ondeo Degremont designers are knowledgeable in chemical treatment aspects and work closely with the chemical conditioning provider during ZLD system design. This Sidestream Treatment System is also used to concentrate the liquid waste stream requiring further treatment. Depending on the source of the water available at the site, Cooling Tower pretreatment may or may not be necessary. Within the Sidestream Treatment System, concentration of the liquid waste generated from the treatment process is critical, as it will ultimately be necessary to dispose of this wastewater either by on-site discharge to evaporation ponds or by some means of evaporation and crystallization. Either option can be expensive. Efficiencies and cost containment measures are built into each Ondeo Degremont ZLD system design. Contact us for innovative ideas on your next project.

    he main objective in ZLD system design is to provide effective treatment at the lowest cost. In order

    to accomplish this objective, it is generally necessary to treat a sidestream flow in order to effectively reduce the level of controlled constituents within the recirculation water to below scaling levels.
