Summary

A resort hotel on the Caribbean island of Aruba used the proximity of its laundry and central chilled water plant to recover laundry wastewater as cooling tower makeup water. Because the cooling tower consumed millions of gallons of water annually (at more than $13 per thousand gallons [$3.43/1000 L]), this plan has saved about $50 200 in annual water costs.
