What is the maximum ppm that a closed loop system is designed to treat?

I manage a closed loop system and we are having a small problem in treating our waste. I believe the concentration of our waste to to blame. Although I have a good idea could you please tell me what is the max p.p.m. concentration of a closed loop system

Thank you

Hi, Charles.
If you "have a good idea", let's begin there because your inquiry is open-ended, and I don't know where to start. Is it an ion-exchange closed loop system? An "Integrated" closed loop system a la Lancy? An evaporation system? Maximum ppm where: in the dragout, in the boiler? I'm sure you know what you have in mind, but I don't :-)
