Successful implementation of a zero discharge program

R.T. Klinker

Abstract

In July 1990, a paper company undertook a program to eliminate the discharge of industrial wastewater to the Mississippi River. A wastewater recycling system consisting of pumps, surge tank, and filtration system reduced discharges by 99%. The successfull pollution prevention includes the annual elimination of 562 million gal of wastewater, 149,000 lb of TSS, and 57,000 lb of BOD.
