I am currently working at a refinery were we have a problem with ammonia in our waste water this is due to partly to direct release to our holding basin and performance problems with slop water processing. we hae identified one of our problems as the presence of Organic acids that are trapping ammonia in the ammonium ion form. i have looked in to caustic but i doun't want to use it because of caustic cracking issues at process temps over 50 decC any suggestions on another way of neutralizing these organic acids
