This article talks about newer technologies being "more efficient" in terms of the brine they produce, by which they seem to mean that you get more fresh water with less brine production.
How is this possible? Your input has a certain amount of salt and water in it, right? How do you take out the same amount of water, but leave less salt behind? Am I missing something?
- empath75 8y agoI imagine you recycle brine into seawater somehow.
- dwighttk 8y agoI think they are using the technology on brackish water instead of seawater, less brine in -- less out, but more water out.
- mjevans 8y agoI believe they're ignoring the concentration of salt in the brine, instead only counting the volume of 'highly salty water' that is output.
