System and method of treating waste water includes: receiving waste water at a first pressure and temperature, the waste water comprising dissolved solids and VOCs; pressurizing, by a pump, the received waste water to a second pressure greater than the first pressure; preheating, by a preheater, the waste water to a second temperature greater than the first temperature producing distilled water; heating, by a condenser, the waste water to a third temperature greater than the second temperature; heating the pressurized/heated water with a heater operated with a hot gas developed by a plasma torch to a fourth temperature greater than the third temperature; and removing dissolved solids from the waste water by evaporation to produce steam and brine water, wherein the brine water has a total dissolved solids content greater than a total dissolved solids content of the received waste water. The brine water is crystallized to a solid mass |
