Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD)

Zero liquid discharge (ZLD) is used to concentrate RO/NF reject in industrial wastewater plants. Most of the water in the concentrate is recovered as product by separating the salt from the water. ZLD systems include thermal evaporators, crystallizers, brine concentrators and spray dryers.

Zero liquid discharge (ZLD) is a classification of water treatment processes intended to reduce wastewater efficiently and produce clean water that is suitable for reuse (e.g., irrigation). ZLD systems employ wastewater treatment technologies and desalination to purify and recycle virtually all wastewater received
