This Presentation discusses the work completed on the 2004 Zero Liquid Discharge 3010 project. Covered are computer modeling, bench test and pilot test results that will go into the final project that will be completed in 2006. This project uses fluidized bed crystallization and the slurry precipative process....

Concentrate management represents the greatest barrier to the implementation of desalination technologies. Zero Liquid discharge (ZLD) options maximize water production while minimizing discharge managment issues. his project evaluates ZLD technologies and pretreatments that show promise for use in high organic carbon brackish waters....

Inland desalination and concentrate management. Where concentrate disposal is constrained or restricted industry is increasingly viewing it as a resource rather than a waste. Discussion of cost for various, and some innovative processes employed to recover all of the concentrate as potable water and solids Zero liquid discharge (ZLD) desalination...

This paper updates the current status of the new desalination technologies and provides comparison with respect to the principles of operation, source(s) of energy required, scalability to large scale applications, potential environmental impacts, footprint, operating parameters (such as recovery, treated water quality), and potential environmental...
