Brine Consulting helps clients design, assess, and optimize water treatment and Zero Liquid Discharge strategies for industrial, municipal, and infrastructure applications. Our work focuses on selecting the right treatment pathway for the actual water chemistry, discharge requirements, operating constraints, and business objectives of each project.
We support projects involving desalination, industrial wastewater, produced water, cooling tower blowdown, high-salinity effluents, landfill leachate, mining water, food and beverage wastewater, chemical streams, and other complex waters. Our approach is technology-neutral and grounded in process reality. We do not force a preferred solution; we evaluate what fits the chemistry, recovery target, energy profile, sludge burden, operating capability, and lifecycle cost.
For ZLD and MLD projects, we help clients understand the full treatment chain, including pretreatment, membranes, softening, evaporation, crystallization, solids handling, chemical consumption, scaling risks, and residual management. We also identify where full ZLD may be justified, where MLD is more sensible, and where reuse or partial recovery may deliver better value.
Typical outputs include treatment concept notes, technology screening, process flow diagrams, pre-feasibility studies, cost range estimates, risk reviews, recovery optimization, vendor evaluation, and technical support during pre-FEED or FEED development.
