Abstract
  • Multiple use of waste heat from power plants may become an important consideration in their development and siting. The heat in the cooling water must be considered a resource to be managed for effective use. Soil warming was suggested as one of several possible productive uses for the heated discharges. The subsurface application of heat to soil by circulating the warm water through a network of buried pipes was proposed. In geographical regions where soil temperature limits plant growth such a system might be ope rated profitably. It was further suggested that the piping system also might be used to supply water to an overhead irrigation system or as a subsurface irrigation system with thermal gradients enhancing water distribution.
