Industrial brine characterisation and modelling
… focused on inorganic industrial hypersaline brines. Chemical engineering presents a variety of mechanical, thermal, biological and chemical processes capable of treating hypersaline brines to the standard required by legislation. However, some of these technologies are inefficient, costly and …

CO2 sequestration using brine impacted fly fish
It was hypothesized that South African FA and brine could sequester CO2 through mineral carbonation. A statistical approach was undertaken to optimize the % CaCO3 formed from FA/brine/CO2 interaction with input parameters of temperature, pressure, particle size and solid/liquid ratio (S/L) being …

Split-feed counterflow reverse osmosis for brine concentration
Brine concentration is a useful operation that allows for increased recovery ratios in water treatment systems, reduction of waste volumes, and the production of minerals from saline brines. As our world moves towards a more sustainable future, improvements in energy-efficient brine concentration …

Improving seawater desalination and seawater desalination brine management
… costs from the discharge of high salinity brine. Efficient and cost-effective seawater desalination and desalination brine management systems are necessary to make seawater desalination a sustainable scalable process. This work seeks to improve seawater desalination and seawater …

Brine Spill Remediation: Crestwood Pipeline, McKenzie County, North Dakota
… of soil samples collected at a coproduced brine spill site near Mandaree, McKenzie County, North Dakota suggest that the site has been remediated. Five soil samples were taken from the area 12 inches below the ground surface. In the lab the saturation extract (Rhoades, 1982) method was used …

Modelling of brine transport mechanisms in Antarctic sea ice
… factor between fresh and sea water ice is brine inclusions that get trapped within the ice pores during freezing. Salt inclusions within frozen ice influence the salinity as well as the physical properties of the sea ice [23]. These brine inclusions form part of a dynamic process within the …

Shallow water outfalls for brine disposal from desalination plants
… from sewage treatment plants, and reject brine from desalination plants. At locations with shallow water depth, the interaction between adjacent jets is enhanced and can affect mixing. The mixing of submerged outfalls in shallow water is studied in this thesis with particular emphasis on …

Pore Wetting in Desalination of Brine Using Membrane Distillation Process
… much attention for desalinating highly saline brines. MD is a thermally driven process in which only vapor molecules pass through the pores of a microporous hydrophobic membrane. This process, however, has not been fully commercialized due to a number of challenges, including “pore wetting”. …

Trace Gas-Induced Brine and Disordered Interfacial Layers on Ice
Brine and disordered interfacial layers (DILs) on ice are known to significantly alter the interaction between trace gases and ice surfaces. In order to better predict the impact of a warming climate on atmospheric composition, a quantitative physical understanding of the interaction between ice …

Effects of brine temperature on ham and bacon processing characteristics
… enough to kill most harmful microorganisms. Brine chillers are used in industry to keep cure at a cool, constant temperature. If brine temperature exceeds 10˚C, along with the addition of erythorbate, there will be a rapid reduction of nitrite to nitric oxide gas which will escape before …

An investigation into the bioremediation of black olive brine wastewater
In South Africa, the table olive industry is burgeoning and as a consequence, the large volume of fermentation wastewaters that are generated have created environmental concerns, as these wastewaters have the potential to pollute rivers and ground waters. Currently, these wastewaters are disposed …

Development of a brine treatment protocol using Eutectic Freeze Crystallization
Hypersaline inorganic brines are generated from many global mining operations and the volume of these brines is increasing at an exponential rate. The environment and water resources in the vicinity of these mining operations are at a risk of being polluted as a result of this increase in brine …

Unified framework to design efficient membrane distillation for brine concentration
… technologies for treating high salinity brine. Membrane distillation (MD) is promising for such applications since it is a scalable process that that can be coupled with a low temperature heat source to concentrate water up to saturation. More than five configurations of MD, based on …

Minimum Ultraviolet Light Dose Determination and Characterization of Stress Responses that Affect Dose for Listeria monocytogenes Suspended in Distilled Water, Fresh Brine, and Spent Brine
… process has been applied. It is believed that brine solutions used to chill cooked RTE products may serve as a reservoir for L. monocytogenes becoming a potential point of post-processing contamination for RTE meats. Re-circulating ultraviolet light (UV) systems are being used to inactivate L. …
