METHOD FOR USING CARBON DIOXIDE SEQUESTERED FROM SEAWATER IN THE REMINERALIZATION OF PROCESS WATER
摘要
<p>Disclosed is an improved method for the remineralization of process water in a desalination system. The method sequesters carbon dioxide gas (CO2) from seawater or concentrate (brine) of desalination process via a gas transfer membrane. The sequestered carbon dioxide gas (CO2) is thereafter used in the production of soluble calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO3)2). The calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO3)2) adds hardness and alkalinity to the resulting process water.</p>
