    Is It recirculated? I never know what to think when this kind of article pops up.

      Yes and no mostly no. There is some portion of water tied up in the battery itself but the vast majority is used to interact with chemicals mostly washing chemicals it seems which in all likelihood means non recirculating and given it’s Texas probably minimal cleanup and trip to evaporation basins near some low income neighborhood.
