Discharge of Effluent of Sea Water Used for Cooling
Our ATCX and BATCX use sea water for their cooling systems. We ensure that the sea water effluent is discharged in compliance with the requirements set under the Water Pollution Control Ordinance (Chapter 358).
Targets for 2002 and 2003
As in the year of 2001, our monthly measurement of the flow rate, temperature, pH value and residual chlorine level of the effluent showed that the limits of these four control parameters have not been exceeded in 2002. In 2003, we will continue to monitor all these parameters. (Figures 14 to 17 present the monthly variation of the flow rate and temperature of the sea water discharged.)
