LIQUID PURIFICATION SYSTEM

A liquid purification system with purified water mineralization, which uses predominantly water from various resources. The main problem of existing liquid purification systems, particularly membrane systems, is that during purification process not only dangerous debris (residual oil, pesticides, herbicides, heavy metals, bacteria, viruses, mechanical particles and other) are removed, but even minerals necessary for human (calcium, potassium, magnesium, sodium and other), so mineralization step is needed after purification step to normalize mineral composition. In the state of the art are known liquid purification systems with integral mineralization means and also devices for mineralization, which can be connected to liquid purification systems. The working principle of systems, known in the state of the art, is that purified liquid flows through the vessel with mineralization additive, which is partly dissolved, and the liquid becomes mineralized. The main drawback of the systems known in the state of the art is that due to peculiarities of the dissolving process and/or mineralization additive content it is impossible to control mineralization process, so the mineralization level is minor, and the pH is higher than the permitted value. Liquid purification system containing raw liquid line, liquid purification unit, mineralization unit, purified liquid line is characterized in that, mineralization of liquid is done by controlled dispensing of mineralization solution, obtained by selective raw or drainage liquids or their mixture.

CROSS CURRENT STAGED REVERSE OSMOSIS

Systems and processes for purifying and concentrating a liquid feed stream are disclosed. In the systems, the concentrated liquid output from the high pressure side of a reverse osmosis stage is used as the draw solution in the low pressure side of the reverse osmosis stage in a configuration called osmotically assisted reverse osmosis. This reduces the osmotic pressure differential across the membrane, permitting high solute concentrations to be obtained, hastening the purification of the liquid. Reduced system pressures are also obtained by arranging multiple osmotically assisted reverse osmosis stages in a cross-current arrangement. Overall system energy consumption is reduced compared to conventional thermal processes for high concentration streams.

SEAWATER TREATMENT TO OBTAIN HIGH SALINITY WATER WITH LOW HARDNESS FOR ENHANCED OIL RECOVERY

A high salinity feed water such as seawater is treated to produce a reverse osmosis (RO) concentrate and an RO permeate. Optionally, some or all of the RO concentrate may be filtered to produce a nanofiltration (NF) permeate. Optionally, some feed water can also be filtered to produce NF permeate without first being concentrated by RO treatment. The NF permeate, or a blend of the RO permeate and NF permeate, may be used to produce a product water for injection into an oil-bearing reservoir to enhance oil recovery. Optionally, the product water may have salinity greater than the feedwater, or at least 30 g/L. The product water may have hardness of less than 20 mg/L.
