The soft water phase is separated from the sludge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The separated water phase is free or substantially free of volatile non-aqueous material and is suitable for use in a once through steam generator to produce saturated steam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The steam used to heat and strip the feed water is generated outside the process and preferably is steam generated in a conventional steam generator from a portion of the soft water produced in the process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The remainder of the soft water may be used to generate steam, e.g., to inject into an oil field to augment recovery of heavy viscous oil. The method is particularly applicable to brine produced with oil in certain oil fields.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Website: &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;S&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.solarwaterenergy.net/comparison.html"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;olarwaterenergy&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;.net&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mail id: &lt;span style="color:#006600;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:info@solarwaterenergy.net"&gt;info@solarwaterenergy.net&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color:#006600;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1553605255366898886-6952816612850186277?l=saline-water.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://saline-water.blogspot.com/feeds/6952816612850186277/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://saline-water.blogspot.com/2010/01/science-behind-hard-water.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1553605255366898886/posts/default/6952816612850186277'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1553605255366898886/posts/default/6952816612850186277'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://saline-water.blogspot.com/2010/01/science-behind-hard-water.html' title='Science behind hard water'/><author><name>Solar Water Energy - Solar Desalination Plant</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04703928357065662960</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_u-uenLqwjnA/S128KjRDlcI/AAAAAAAAABc/PIKDPJGvNBw/s72-c/dead-sea.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
