Advanced Brine Treatment with BrineX® – High Efficiency Recovery for ZLD Systems
BrineX® is WTT International's patented brine recovery system engineered to concentrate, recover, and reuse brine solutions with up to 120 GPL concentration. Ideal for textile and industrial ZLD systems integration, it reduces evaporator load by 30-40%, minimizes disposal costs, and ensures sustainable water recovery. The system enables salt reuse in textile processing while significantly lowering thermal energy requirements for downstream evaporation.

Brine Disposal is Costly. BrineX® Turns It Into Value.
The Challenge:
Industries dealing with RO reject, high TDS effluents, and brine streams face rising costs of disposal, scale buildup, evaporator overload, and environmental non compliance issues. Existing solutions are energy intensive, chemically unstable, and operationally inefficient, often requiring large evaporators to handle the entire reject volume.
WTT's BrineX® Advantage:
BrineX® is a compact, automated brine treatment unit designed to recover water and concentrate salts from RO reject streams. It uses advanced membrane separation processes combined with crystallizer integration.
- Achieve up to 120 GPL brine concentration from standard RO reject
- Enable salt recovery for reuse in textile dyeing processes, replacing fresh salt
- Reduce load to evaporators by 30-50%, cutting thermal energy costs
- Handle high TDS effluent without scale formation or membrane fouling
- Lower total disposal costs and eliminate fresh salt procurement needs
BrineX® is purpose built to integrate with existing RO and ZLD systems as a pre concentration stage for maximum resource recovery and minimal waste generation.
Transform your RO reject from waste to resource.
Designed for Compact Brine Handling and Industrial Resilience
Core BrineX® Technologies engineered for maximum resource recovery and minimal waste generation.
High Efficiency Brine Recovery
Recover up to 120 GPL brine concentration from standard RO reject streams for direct reuse in textile dyeing and chemical processing cycles. The concentrated brine often exceeds commercial salt solution quality.
Salt Recovery & Crystallization Integration
Enable salt reuse through integrated evaporative crystallizer compatibility. The system produces brine suitable for direct use in place of fresh salt procurement.
Brine Dewatering & Filtration
Integrated multi stage filtration and sludge reduction using compact dewatering technology. The system minimizes solid waste generation while maximizing water recovery.
Compact & Skid Mounted Design
Space saving footprint with mobile ready modules that can be transported and installed quickly. The entire system fits within a standardized container footprint.
Reduces Evaporator Load
Functions as a critical pre treatment stage to reduce energy usage and evaporation burden by concentrating brine before thermal processing.
Seamless RO/ZLD Integration
Acts as a plug in unit for downstream reject management in RO or Zero Liquid Discharge flows, optimizing the entire treatment train efficiency.
