WATER TECHNOLOGIES
 Thermal, Modular
Wastewater Treatment System
Evaporation is an effective and reliable method to treat wastewaters that contain relatively high
concentrations of total dissolved solids (TDS).
Veolia Water Technologies offers the their standard brine concentrator system as an ideal solution that
not only effectively treats high TDS wastewater, but also manages the subsequent mixed salts. Utilizing
Veolia’s HPD® thermal evaporation technology, it is a proven and cost-effective solution to the high cost
and long-term liabilities associated with multiple ponds or deepwell injection.

System Description Benefits & Features

The system is based on HPD® Falling Film Evaporation Environmental Performance
