A hybrid process combining reverse osmosis and electrodialysis has been shown to be effective in recovering 97–98% of brackish water as product water with chloride levels of 200 mg/L or less. Potential for scaling on the brine side of the electrodialysis unit was prevented by acidification, operating

Electrodialysis (ED) was applied to concentrate brine solutions of various concentrations — similar to effluents from the desalination of brackish and industrial water — to about 20%. The consequent reduction in effluent volumes would facilitate a reduction in disposal costs. The energy requirement
