Description:
The report details the preliminary engineering work done at Owens-Corning's (O-C's) Anderson, South Carolina, fibrous glass plant. The purpose of the work was to test, on a pilot plant scale, various technologies to be used to clean up industrial wastewater for a closed-loop system, i.e., for total industrial wastewater reuse. Conceptual design has been developed for the testing treatment processes of sand filtration, activated carbon adsorption, and disinfection. As a result of this work, O-C has authorized the construction of a full scale plant which will be in operation in 1978. This report makes the developed technology available to the industry prior to publication of details of final plant construction and operation.
