Advances in Research on Desalination Technology for High-Sodium Wastewater

Amidst escalating global water scarcity challenges, addressing industrial and agricultural wastewater treatment has emerged as a critical concern within environmental conservation efforts. Wastewater desalination technology not only mitigates salt pollution’s impact on ecosystems but also facilitates sustainable water resource management with significant economic and ecological advantages. This study delves into fundamental principles, methodologies, and application prospects in wastewater desalination technology by conducting a comprehensive assessment encompassing physical, chemical, and biological treatment approaches while scrutinizing their practical applicability through analysis of respective merits and drawbacks. Furthermore, this study illuminates specific operational impacts associated with diverse desalinization techniques employed in industrial or agricultural contexts based on prior research findings. The findings underscore that judicious selection of suitable desalinization methods along with optimization of operational parameters are pivotal factors influencing improved rates of sustainable wastewater desalinization. Finally, this paper proposes future directions and research focuses for wastewater desalination technology to provide a reference for related fields.
