Yes. As another comparison point, 13 million gallons per year amounts to 24 gallons per minute which is about 5 (five) bathtub faucets running 24/7/365. The water bill alone would be only $100k/yr assuming average US domestic rate of $8 per 1000 gallons. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

So a system to recirculate the same 24 gallons per minute would be more expensive than $100k per year for water? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

My state's gasoline refineries use about ~13 million gallons of water each day. It's about .7 gallons of water per gallon of gasoline refined. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
