MgCl2 and KCl Recovery from Brine Wastewater Abstract This project’s aim was to design an improved brine wastewater treatment system for desalination facilities. While a multitude of methods exist to do so, General Electric (GE)’s brine concentrator is leading the market by providing a method that not only treats the brine waste, but also recovers anywhere from 60- 94% of the water from the feed. However, their brine concentrator is relatively inefficient omfr both a financial and energetic perspective; our goal was to develop a system to match their results, while limiting costs and energy usage as best possible. We subsequently designed a system (referred to from here on out as the ‘MgCl2 Separation Unit’) to accomplish the aforementioned objectives. In addition to recovering pure water from concentrated brine, our process also recovers high purity MgCl2 and KCl crystals that are later sold to alleviate the overall process costs.
