| Abstract |
The report documents the results of waste minimization audits carried out at two mercury cell chloralkali plants in 1987. The audit addressed to waste streams, K-071-brine purification muds, and K-106-wastewater treatment sludges from Mercury cell processes in chlorine production. Several possible options are reviewed for each waste stream. Environmentally available treatment scheme identified the most cost effective sollutions for both streams. In addition to reporting in the results of the particular audit studies, the report also outlines the EPA recommended procedure for conducting waste minimization audits. |
