    Case #1 describes an upgrade to a crude oil refinery that achieved several objectives: [1] Meeting high quality standards for reverse osmosis inlet, [2] Eliminating raw water use in RO, and [3] Optimizing chemical usage and sludge disposal. [2] Case #2 discusses upgrading a centralized wastewater treatment plant to meet EPA regulations and reduce COD levels in two phases. [3] Case #3 involves upgrading a PTA refinery's wastewater treatment to achieve high quality standards suitable for various future options like zero liquid discharge.
