Table 4. Standards for processes

ProcessRequirement
Heat rejection and cooling
No once-through cooling with potable water for any equipment or
appliances that reject heat
Discharge water
temperature tempering
Where local requirements limit the discharge temperature of fluids into
a drainage system, use a tempering device that runs water only when
the equipment discharges hot water.
OR
Provide a thermal recovery heat exchanger that cools drained
discharge water below code-required maximum discharge
temperatures while simultaneously preheating inlet makeup water.
OR
If fluid is steam condensate, return it to boiler.
Venturi-type flow-through
vacuum generators or
aspirators

Use no device that generates a vacuum by means of water flow
through the device into the drain.
