<p>The invention is a method for removing dissolved solids from water by creating a condition of super-saturation of the solid material within a confined water circuit, propagating the formation of solids by a slurry process of evaporative crystallization which utilizes waste heat energy and separating the crystallized solids; the invention also involves the apparatus for carrying out the process which includes a continuous process circuit for circulating a super-saturated liquid and slurry, which circuit comprises a source of waste heat energy for propelling the process and a cooling tower to provide evaporation, and further including a separator to remove crystallized solids from the slurry.</p> |
