Abstract

Sodium chloride and purified water are recovered by treating salt water that contains sodium chloride with an integrated reverse osmosis (200) and electrodialysis (300) system, which includes an efficiency-enhancing feature that is one or more of the following: the use of univalent anion and univalent cation selective membranes in the electrodialysis unit (300); the addition of a nanofiltration unit to process the diluate from the electrodialysis unit (300); or operation of the electrodialysis unit (300) at an elevated pressure. Magnesium and bromine can optionally be produced when the salt water contains these materials.
