Brine Disposal through Deep-Well Injection

Deep-well injection is a method of disposing of brine by injecting it into deep underground wells, often below freshwater aquifers. This method prevents the brine from contaminating surface waters or ecosystems.

• Applications: Inland desalination plants, industrial facilities, and regions where surface brine disposal is not permitted.

• Advantages: Provides a relatively simple and cost-effective brine disposal method, particularly for inland facilities with no access to the sea.
