Hi
I am working on industrial water pollution and economics of water recycling for my Masters' dissertation. I have managed to obtain the cost data for zero discharge technology for a pharmaceutical firm. However, they have not revealed the exact data on salt recovery from using the particular technology and the associated monetary benefits.
Thus, I will be highly obliged if you could give me a rough estimate of how much salt can be recovered using zero discharge technology in pharmaceutical industry (salt recovery as a proportion of waste water treated). Also, I would need the market valuation of the salts recovered so as to attach a monetary value with the same. I require this data to do a cost-benefit analysis of using a zero discharge technology in order to analyze it's economic feasibility. Looking forward to hear from you.
Thank you
