Abstract:
Embodiments relate to systems and methods directed towards arrangements of a preheater, a heat exchanger, a plasma recovery system, and at least one processing stage configured to use steam output of a calciner for heating incoming wastewater that is being processed.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for treating wastewater, comprising:\n a preheater configured to receive wastewater; a heat exchanger configured to receive wastewater from the preheater and supply steam to the preheater; and a plasma recovery system (PRS) configured to receive wastewater from the heat exchanger and provide steam to the heat exchanger; wherein:\n the wastewater comprises water, salt, and volatile organic compounds; \n the preheater transfers heat from the steam to the wastewater, converting the steam to distilled water; \n the heat exchanger transfers heat from the steam to the wastewater before transferring the steam to the preheater; and \n the PRS is configured to: volatize water from the wastewater to generate steam; \n and separate salt from the wastewater to generate a brine; at least one processing stage configured to increase a concentration of the salt in the brine to form a concentrated brine; at least one plasma crystallizer/calciner configured to receive the concentrated brine, the plasma crystallizer/calciner comprising a pyrolytic calcining reactor configured to generate chlorides that mix with the concentrated brine.
