Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a carbon-sequestering desalination brine waste processing system comprising a carbon sequestration system and a plurality of brine removal system for a desalinization plant. The carbon sequestration system is configured to receive brine from a brine source and inject at least one of CO2 or CO into the brine to provide carbon sequestrated brine. The plurality of brine removal systems are connected in series or parallel and sequentially extract brine and water vapor from the carbon sequestrated brine. Each brine removal system includes at least one atomizing unit for spray atomization and vacuum flashing the carbon sequestrated brine into atomized water vapor and concentrated brine. Further, each subsequent brine removal system includes at least one mineral extraction unit allowing sequential removal of minerals from the concentrated brine received from a previous brine removal system, and provide minerals and stable carbon products, till substantially zero brine discharge is achieved.
