Abstract:
Brine contains cations such as K+, Ca2+, Na+, Mg2+, Li+, B3+, Rb2+, and Cs2+, as well as anions such as SO42−, Cl−, HCO3−, CO32−, NO3−, Br−, and I−, which are valuable elements. Brines are widely distributed in salt lakes in the world's three enormous plateaus and beyond and are classified into three types: sulfate-, chloride-, and carbonate-type brines. Sulfate-type brine forms in salt lakes, whereas carbonate-type brine results from magmatic and hydrothermal activity. Chloride-type brine forms in deep basins due to the reduction and transformation of buried brine. Li in brine plays a critical role in clean energy transitions, and K in brine is important for potash production. Recently, new techniques for extracting Li from brine have been developed, and the large-scale, comprehensive development pattern of brines has formed the basis for a recycling economic model, which contributes to the efficient use of brines for potash and Li2CO3 development and CO2 emission reduction. This article reviews the genesis of brines and highlights new utilization techniques, trends, and sustainable development.

Abstract:
Abstract On Mars, liquid water may form in regolith when perchlorate salts absorb water vapor and dissolve into brine, or when ice-salt mixtures reach their melting temperature and thaw. Brines created in this way can chemically react with minerals, alter the mechanical properties of regolith, mobilize salts in the soil, and potentially create habitable environments. Although Martian brines would exist in contact with regolith, few studies have investigated how regolith alters the formation and stability of brines at Mars-relevant conditions. To fill this gap, we studied magnesium perchlorate brine in a Martian regolith simulant at salt concentrations up to 5.8 wt.%. We measured the water mass fraction and water activity between 3 and 98% relative humidity at 25 °C using the isopiestic method, and monitored salt and ice crystallization between −150 °C and 20 °C with differential scanning calorimetry. Results show that regolith inhibits salt and ice crystallization, allowing water to form and persist at much colder and drier conditions than pure brine. Remarkably, in several samples, neither salt nor ice crystallized at any conditions. These results suggest that brines could exist in regolith for longer periods of the Martian year than previously thought, and could persist indefinitely under certain conditions. By retaining water, inhibiting salt and ice crystallization, and maintaining habitable water activity, briny regolith may be a more favorable environment for life than pure brine alone. These findings indicate the critical importance of brine–regolith interactions for understanding the properties, evolution, and potential habitability of Mars’s surface.

Abstract:
The Laizhou Bay area contains a large amount of Quaternary brine resources, which have been gradually depleted by long-term high-intensity mining. The local brine genesis is still controversial, and the dominant theory of the evaporation of brine formation limits the exploration of brine resources to the land area, while the confirmation of freezing brine formation would greatly expand the brine storage range. In this research paper, the genesis of underground brines was analyzed based on the major ion concentrations of 62 samples of underground brines at different depths at 24 stations along the south coast of Laizhou Bay. The results show that the underground brines originated from seawater; however, their chemical components were changed during the evolution process after formation. The hydrogeochemical modeling results show that the mixing of seawater and fresh groundwater also affects the chemical composition of brines. The large-scale exploitation of brine resources in recent decades has also led to significant changes in the chemical composition of the underground brine in Laizhou Bay compared with the earlier period. The special geographic environment and the development of the brine chemical industry have led to the evolution of underground brines in Laizhou Bay being affected by a variety of factors, which makes the traditional analysis of brine genesis in this region not applicable. Furthermore, although evaporation and concentration are the dominant factors in the formation of brine, there is still a lack of evidence to rule out the existence of the freezing pathway.

Abstract:
CO2 sequestration in deep saline aquifers is a critical component of long-term storage options. It is suggested that the precipitation of mineral carbonates is mostly dependent on brine pH and is favoured above a basic pH of 9.0. However, brine pH will drop to acidic values once CO2 is injected into the brine. Therefore, there is a need to raise brine pH and maintain it stable. Synthetic brines were used here instead of natural brines because of the difficulty in obtaining and storing natural brines. Therefore, experiments were conducted to prepare a series of synthetic brines and to compare their suitability to natural brines for carbon sequestration. A typical formation rock (basalt) and a buffer solution (0.3M Tris buffer solution) were selected to buffer brine pH. The results show that synthetic brines prepared can be used as analogues to natural brines for carbon sequestration studies in terms of chemical composition and pH response. This study investigates the effect of iron ( ) in the pH of six synthetic brines prepared as analogue to oil-field brine by conducting a pH stability studies for CO2-brine experiment and CO2-basalt-brine experiment. In a subsequent step, studies were conducted to correlate how brine samples respond in the presence of basalt and the buffer solution. X-Ray powder Diffraction (XRD) analyses were also carried out to characterise the mineralogy of the synthetic brines. The result of the XRD confirmed that calcite was the major component that was dominated in the -brine–experiment while slight occurrence of calcite, iron oxyhydroxides and dolomite precipitated in the -rock-brine experiment. It was observed that ferric iron and its reaction with host rock (basalt) did not contribute to pH instability therefore making it suitable for precipitation of carbonate mineral while ferrous iron in the absence of host rock did not contribute to pH instability therefore making it also suitable for precipitation of carbonate mineral.

Abstract. Geophysical, temperature, and discrete depth-stratified geochemical data illustrate differences between an actively venting mud volcano and a relatively quiescent brine pool in the Gulf of Mexico along the continental slope. Geophysical data, including laser-line scan mosaics and sub-bottom profiles, document the dynamic nature of both environments. Temperature profiles, obtained by lowering a CTD into the brine fluid, show that the venting brine was at least 10°C warmer than the bottom water. At the brine pool, two thermoclines were observed, one directly below the brine-seawater interface and a second about one meter below the first. At the mud volcano, substantial temperature variability was observed, with the core brine temperature being either slightly (~2°C in 1997) or substantially (19°C in 1998) elevated above bottom water temperature. Geochemical samples were obtained using a device called the "brine trapper" and concentrations of dissolved gases, major ions and nutrients were determined using standard techniques. Both brines contained about four times as much salt as seawater and steep concentration gradients of dissolved ions and nutrients versus brine depth were apparent. Differences in the concentrations of calcium, magnesium and potassium between the two brine fluids suggests that the fluids are derived from different sources or that brine-sediment reactions are more important at the mud volcano than the brine pool. Substantial concentrations of methane and ammonium were observed in both brines, suggesting that fluids expelled from deep ocean brines are important sources of methane and dissolved inorganic nitrogen to the surrounding environment.

Abstract:
Fermented foods are considered the main sources of biogenic amines (BAs) in the human diet while lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are the main producers of BAs. Normal water (NW) and hydrogen-rich water (HRW) were used for preparing red beet pickles, i.e., NWP and HRWP, respectively. The formation of BAs, i.e., aromatic amines (tyramine, 2-phenylethylamine), heterocyclic amines (histamine, tryptamine), and aliphatic di-amines (putrescine), was analyzed in both beet slices and brine of NWPs and HRWPs throughout the fermentation stages. Significant differences in redox value (Eh7) between NWP and HRWP brine samples were noticed during the first and last fermentation stages with lower values found for HRWPs. Total mesophilic aerobic bacteria (TMAB), yeast–mold, and LAB counts were higher for HRWPs than NWPs for all fermentation stages. Throughout fermentation stages, the levels of all BAs were lower in HRWPs than those of NWPs, and their levels in brines were higher than those of beets. At the end of fermentation, the levels (mg/kg) of BAs in NWPs and HRWPs were, respectively: tyramine, 72.76 and 61.74 (beet) and 113.49 and 92.67 (brine), 2-phenylethylamine, 48.00 and 40.00 (beet) and 58.01 and 50.19 (brine), histamine, 67.89 and 49.12 (beet) and 91.74 and 70.92 (brine), tryptamine, 93.14 and 77.23 (beet) and 119.00 and 93.11 (brine), putrescine, 81.11 and 63.56 (beet) and 106.75 and 85.93 (brine). Levels of BAs decreased by (%): 15.15 and 18.35 (tyramine), 16.67 and 13.44 (2-phenylethylamine), 27.65 and 22.7 (histamine), 17.09 and 21.76 (tryptamine), and 21.64 and 19.5 (putrescine) for beet and brine, respectively, when HRW was used in pickle preparation instead of NW. The results of this study suggest that the best method for limiting the formation of BAs in pickles is to use HRW in the fermentation phase then replace the fermentation medium with a new acidified and brined HRW followed by a pasteurization process.

Temperature profiles, obtained by lowering a CTD into the brine fluid, show that the venting brine was at least 10°C warmer than the bottom water. At the brine pool, thermal stratification was observed and only small differences in stratification were documented between three sampling times (1991, 1997 and 1998). In contrast, at the mud volcano, substantial temperature variability was observed, with the core brine temperature being slightly higher than bottom water (by 2°C) in 1997 but substantially higher than bottom water (by 19°C) in 1998. Detailed geochemical samples were obtained in 2002 using a device called the "brine trapper" and concentrations of dissolved gases, major ions and nutrients were determined. Both brines contained about four times as much salt as seawater and steep concentration gradients of dissolved ions and nutrients versus brine depth were apparent. Differences in the concentrations of calcium, magnesium and potassium between the two brine fluids suggest that the fluids are derived from different sources, have different dilution/mixing histories, or that brine-sediment reactions are more important at the mud volcano. Substantial concentrations of methane, ammonium, and silicate were observed in both brines, suggesting that fluids expelled from deep ocean brines are important sources of these constituents to the surrounding environment.

Abstract:
In this research, the occurrence of hygienic quality and histamine in commercial brined and dried milkfish products, and the effects of brine concentrations on the quality of brined and dried milkfish, were studied. Brined and dried milkfish products (n = 20) collected from four retail stores in Taiwan were tested to investigate their histamine-related quality. Among them, five tested samples (25%, 5/20) had histamine contents of more than 5 mg/100 g, the United States Food and Drug Administration guidelines for scombroid fish, while two (10%, 2/20) contained 69 and 301 mg/100 g of histamine, exceeding the 50 mg/100 g potential hazard level. In addition, the effects of brine concentrations (0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, and 15%) on the chemical and bacteriological quality of brined and dried milkfish during sun-drying were evaluated. The results showed that the aerobic plate count (APC), coliform, water activity, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVBN), and histamine content values of the brined and dried milkfish samples decreased with increased brine concentrations, whereas those of salt content and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) increased with increasing brine concentrations. The milkfish samples prepared with 6% NaCl brine had better quality with respect to lower APC, TVBN, TBA, and histamine levels.

Full text
Abstract:
Summary Literature review shows that improved oil recovery (IOR) by low-salinity waterflooding could be attributed to several mechanisms, such as sweep-efficiency improvement, interfacial-tension (IFT) reduction, multicomponent ionic exchange, and electrical-double-layer (EDL) expansion. Although these mechanisms might contribute to IOR by low-salinity water, they may not be the primary mechanism. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to investigate if the mechanism of EDL expansion could be the principal reason for IOR during low-salinity waterflooding. Low-salinity water results in a thicker EDL when compared to high-salinity water, so we tried to eliminate the effect of low-salinity brines on double-layer expansion to show to what extent IOR is related to EDL expansion caused by low-salinity water. The double-layer expansion is dependent on the electric surface charge, which is a function of the pH of brine; therefore, the pH levels of low-salinity brines were decreased in this study to provide low-salinity brines that can produce a thinner EDL, similar to high-salinity brines. ζ-potential measurements were performed on both rock/brine and oil/brine interfaces to demonstrate the effect of brine pH and salinity on EDL. Contact angle and coreflood experiments were conducted to test different brine salinities at different pH values, which could assess the effect of water salinity and pH on rock wettability and oil recovery, and hence involvement of EDL expansion in the IOR process. ζ-potential results in this study showed that decreasing the pH of low-salinity brines makes the electrical charges at both oil/brine and brine/rock interfaces slightly negative, which reduces the double-layer expansion caused by low-salinity brine. As a result, the rock becomes more oil-wet, which was confirmed by contact-angle measurements. Moreover, coreflood experiments indicated that injecting low-salinity brine at lower pH values recovered smaller amounts of oil when compared to the original pH because of the elimination of the low-salinity-water effect on the thickness of the double layer. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that expansion of the double layer is a dominant mechanism of oil-recovery improvement by low-salinity waterflooding.

Abstract:
The current study investigated application of natural adsorbents in brine treatment. Brines are hypersaline waters generated in power stations and mining industries rich in Mg2+, K+, Ca2+, Na+, SO4 2- , Cl- and traces of heavy metals, thus there is a need for these brines to be treated to recover potable water and remove problematic elements. Natural adsorbents have been successfully used in waste water treatment because of their high surface area and high adsorptive properties when they are conditioned with acid or base. The investigation of pH showed that natural adsorbents did not perform well at low pH of 4 and 6. The adsorbents were able to work efficiently at the natural pH of 8.52 of the brine solution. These results show that natural adsorbents hold great potential to remove cationic major components and selected heavy metal species from industrial brine wastewater. Heterogeneity of natural adsorbents samples, even when they have the same origin, could be a problem when wastewater treatment systems utilizing natural clinoptilolite and bentonite are planned to be developed. Therefore, it is very important to characterize the reserves fully in order to make them attractive in developing treatment technologies.

Abstract:

It was hypothesized that South African FA and brine could sequester CO2 through mineral carbonation. A statistical approach was undertaken to optimize the % CaCO3 formed from FA/brine/CO2 interaction with input parameters of temperature, pressure, particle size and solid/liquid ratio (S/L) being varied. The ranges adopted for the input parameters were: temperature of 30 º
C or 90 º
C
pressure of 1 Mpa or 4 Mpa
four particle sizes namely bulk ash, >
150 &mu
m, <
20 &mu
m and 20 &mu
m- 150 &mu
m particle size range
S/L ratios of 0.1, 0.5 or 1. The FA/ brine dispersions were carbonated in a high pressure reactor varying the above mentioned input parameters. The fresh Secunda FA of various size fractions was characterized morphologically using scanning electron microscopy, chemically using X-ray fluorescence and mineralogically using qualitative X-ray diffraction. The carbonated solid residues on the other hand were characterized using quantitative X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, thermal gravimetic analysis and Chittick tests. The raw brine from Tutuka together with the carbonation leachates were characterized using inductively coupled mass spectrometry and ion chromatography. Total acid digestion was carried out to evaluate the differences in the total elemental content in both the fresh ash and the carbonated solid residues. The results suggested that South African FA from Secunda belongs to class F based on the CaO content as well as the total alumina, silica and ferric oxide content, while the RO brine from Tutuka were classified as NaSO4 waters...

Abstract:
The selective effects of Copper, Mercury, Cadmium, and sump oil on three bisexual species of Artemia were examined in both short and long term tests. The frequencies of alleles and genotypes of five loci were monitored, using starch gel electrophoresis, in populations of Artemia exposed to high doses of pollutant. Several indications of resistance being associated with particular genotypes or alleles were found. Competition experiments of bisexual and asexual species were also conducted under various regimes of temperature and salinity. Cyclical dominance found in natural co-existing populations of asexual and bisexual Artemia was successfully modelled in the laboratory and evidence obtained of preferred conditions for each mode of reproduction. The relative advantages of sexual and asexual reproduction are discussed, with reference to Artemia. An attempt was made to determine the heritability in A. franciscana of resistance to Carbon Dioxide saturated waters in order to establish a pathway of gene exchange with A. monica, which is found in carbonate waters. This does not appear to be a significantly heritable trait. Seventeen new strains obtained from cyst samples were analysed using starch gel electrophoresis. This information was added to the database of Artemia electrophoretic data compiled by Abreu (1983), and using the BIOSYS computer programme the following were produced for A.salina, A.franciscana and the asexual strains: - Similarity and Distance Coefficients - Phenetic analysis. - Phylogenetic analysis.

Brine concentration is a useful operation that allows for increased recovery ratios in water treatment systems, reduction of waste volumes, and the production of minerals from saline brines. As our world moves towards a more sustainable future, improvements in energy-efficient brine concentration will be important. While viable brine concentration technologies exist, current methods are often inefficient. In this thesis, a model is developed to simulate Counterflow Reverse Osmosis (CFRO), a membrane-based, pressure-driven brine concentration technology. Using this model, a single CFRO module is simulated and its performance characterized. Entropy generation within a single-stage system is analyzed, which provides insights for configuring and optimizing multistaged systems. Additionally, a parametric analysis of membrane parameters provides direction for the development of CFRO-specific membranes. Two existing configurations of CFRO are discussed, and compared with a new third configuration, split feed CFRO, which is presented for the first time here. Split feed CFRO systems are simulated and optimized to provide guidance for system design. A variety of multistage systems operating at a range of recovery ratios are simulated, and the results compared are with existing desalination and brine concentration technologies. Potential is shown for the maximum recovery ratio of RO systems to increase significantly when hybridized with split-feed CFRO brine concentration systems, while the energy requirements of these hybridized systems is similar to, or an improvement on, the expected performance of conventional RO systems operating at high pressures and the same conditions. A large reduction in energy usage when compared to commonly used evaporative brine concentrators is shown to be possible.

Abstract:
Abstract Wettability alteration considered as the principal mechanism has attracted more attention for low salinity waterflooding effect. It was significantly affected by electrokinetic interactions, which occurred at the interfaces of rock/brine and crude oil/brine. The mineral impurities of natural carbonate releasing ions have an important impact on the electrokinetics, which could lead to wettability shift subsequently. In this study, the effect of dolomite and anhydrite as the main impurities in natural carbonate, which caused wettability alteration, was evaluated using triple-layer surface complexation and thermodynamic equilibrium models coupled with extended Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) theory. The electrokinetics of crude oil and carbonate in brines were predicted by the triple-layer surface complexation model (TLM) based on zeta potential, while thermodynamic equilibrium model was mainly used for analyzing the carbonate impurities on wettability alteration. The equilibrium constants of reactions were determined by successfully fitting the calculated zeta potentials with measured ones for crude oil and carbonate in different solutions, which were validated for zeta potential prediction in smartwater. The disjoining pressure results show that there is a repulsion between crude oil and carbonate in Na2SO4 brine (Brine3) or smartwater (Brine4) equilibrating with calcite when comparing to that in MgCl2 (Brine1) and CaCl2 (Brine2), indicating the water-wet condition caused by the presence of sulphate ions. Moreover, the equilibrium of carbonate impurities with smartwater increases the repulsion between oil and carbonate. When the sulphate ion concentration in the adjusted smartwater exceeds a certain value, the effect of carbonate impurities on wettability alteration is not significant. Finally, the influence of smartwater pH on the interaction between oil and carbonate was evaluated with or without considering the equilibrium of carbonate impurities.

Abstract:
Abstract It has been discovered that condensed brines from wet gas produced up the annulus of Bakken wells can contain up to 30,000 mg/L bicarbonate. When commingling with high calcium-containing produced brine on surface, the incompatibility has led to surface line plugging with calcium carbonate. Previous theories evaluated the possibility of corrosion contributing to the elevated bicarbonate concentrations. Subsequent work discovered that distillation of produced water was able to isolate distillate containing high concentrations of bicarbonate. This paper summarizes the laboratory work conducted to understand the ability of bicarbonate to transfer from distilled produced brine to the collected condensed water as well as field work to confirm suitable mitigative strategies. Produced brine from different production basins was heated to 250 °F in an oil bath under an inert atmosphere using a distillation apparatus. Alkalinity and pH of the starting produced brine and collected distillate were measured in the lab using phenolphthalein and methyl purple indicators, and a pH probe, respectively. Alkalinity concentrations were also measured via non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) analysis to eliminate interference from other titratable species. Field work consisted of selecting 30 trial wells for batch applications consisting of diluted corrosion inhibitors in addition to only produced water. Wells were tracked for extension of mean time between failure to evaluate program effectiveness. The return on investment was calculated in terms of avoided deferred production. Surprisingly, it was discovered that simple distillation of produced brine could result in transfer of alkalinity to the collected distillate. NDIR analyses confirmed that minimal alkalinity remained in some samples while the bulk of alkalinity (as bicarbonate) was found in the collected distillate. This discovery has significant implications for the ultimate prevention of buildup of bicarbonate in the condensed brine on surface as well as strategies to mitigate the ensuing brine incompatibility. Produced brines from other production basins were also distilled to see if alkalinity transfer could be observed, or if this phenomenon appears unique to Bakken produced brines. It was found that this alkalinity transfer can be observed in distillation experiments using produced brines from other basins. The discovery of this alkalinity transfer has implication for the oilfield where condensed brine collects. While currently observed in the Bakken, it is of interest whether other basins could see a similar concentration of alkalinity in condensed brines, resulting in instances of calcium carbonate deposition of varying degree. The ability to identify alkalinity transfer into condensed brines may help identify root causes of incompatibility and subsequent suitable strategies for mitigation in other regions. This phenomenon of measured alkalinity transfer also represents a unique scenario as distilled water is assumed to contain minimal dissolved ions.

Abstract:
Wettability test is one of the most used tools for evaluating rock/fluid interaction in oils reservoir. In the present paper two carbonate outcrop rocks are evaluated for wettability alterations when subjected to brine injections of varying salinities and content of dissolved CO2. The evaluation included a qualitative appraisal via spontaneous imbibition tests and a quantitative assessment by the Amott-Harvey procedure. Rocks refer to limestone and dolomite samples with petro-physical properties similar to the Brazilian pre-salt reservoirs. Testing fluids are a medium gravity crude oil, seawater concentration brine, formation equivalent brine and the carbonated version of these brines. Results show additional oil recovery directly associated with wettability alteration provoked by brine concentration changes. Increments in recovery were observed independently if the brine concentration decreased or increased in the replacement process. For dolomites and limestone wettability changed in the direction of turning the rock from oil-wet to neutral wet. Tests carried out with equivalent carbonated brines show that similar alteration in the wetting properties also occur. Alterations were as well independent of the increase or decrease of the salt concentration in the brine changed. However, CO2 or its derived ions dissolved in the brines seem to inhibit the mechanism of wettability change when rocks are subject to changes in brine salt concentrations.
