Abstract
Process water at a styrene plant near the Houston ship channel was contaminated with styrene and benzene. Installation of an air stripper with volatile-organic-compound controls enabled the company to reduce VOC concentrations in the effluent to nondetectable levels, recover and reuse the benzene and styrene, and recycle water to cooling towers
