Abstract

El Paso Water's Kay Bailey Hutchison Water Treatment Plant treats brackish groundwater using high-pressure membranes that also produce a concentrated brine waste stream.

When the treatment plant's capacity was expanded, staff assessed different concentrate management and disposal strategies.

After an extensive evaluation, two options were selected for future pilot testing: (1) closed-circuit reverse osmosis with evaporation ponds and (2) electrodialysis reversal.
