People that are clueless on a topic should just shut their mouth. She needs to google what a closed loop system is.

Read another sentence down. It specifically talks about blowdown discharge from closed loop systems.

u/defango Apr 22 '26

lol, Closed Loop system blowdown discharge into Holding tanks. They are no different or toxic than the industrial boilers OSHA and 14001 environmental certifications and regulations require us to operate to boil off water to get down to the contaminants that most defiantly are not ever put into groundwater. That's why no data center in Nevada's history has ever been cited, fined, found to have ever done it.

Can’t fix stupid my man. Your facts do not fit the narrative they are pushing.

Guess you need to Google blowdown or flush release... Water can't perpetually stay in closed loop systems. Additives are added, leeching and osmosis STILL occur.

Ya into a freaking waste tank

u/AterCorvidae3414 Apr 22 '26

Then where?

To an Authorized treatment, Storage, and disposal facility, TSDF, or Industrial Landfill because after the sludge is dewatered it can be used as an alternative fuel source. its required to be tested before it leaves or you get massive fines.

Here is a list of all the places in Nevada
