If you need a desal plant, probably not a lot of water laying around to dilute your brine stream

- YokoZar 5y agoAre they allowed to dilute it with wastewater?
- eutectic 5y agoPurifying wastewater is much cheaper than desalination.
- HPsquared 5y agoDilute it with seawater, I mean. Even it's not safe to discharge concentrated brine with, say, 10x the normal salt concentration, maybe seawater with 1.1x the usual concentration (or whatever it is) would be okay.
- londons_explore 5y agoIn some me places it is hard to discharge even 1.1x brine. In the future it might be necessary to concentrate it all the way to solid salt crystals and then truck them away.
