| Abstract |
Possible changes are analyzed that could be made in privately optimal designs to modify heated effluents so that they conform with themal quality standards. The objective of the method of analysis presented is the determination of that combination of effluent modification options which meets the standard at minimum cost, subject to a constraint on total energy output. It is postulated that all effluent modification options that might be economically feasible can be divided into two classes, namely, reductions in energy output for the plant in question, and changes in the cooling system. The method of analysis developed and progress made in making this method operational. There are no numerical results or illustrative case studies given. |
