AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention relates to an integrated system used in saltwater purification systems. It includes two main components: a desalination system and a filter system. These components work together to remove impurities from sea water. One component called the desalination system produces high quality water while another component called the filter system separates out unwanted substances from the remaining liquid. This allows for efficient use of resources such as electricity and fuel.

Problems solved by technology

This patent describes a technical problem related to low salt water flooding in oil-bearing formations due to the presence of excessive water injections. These injected waters can cause damage to the oil-bearing rocks and lead to corrosion. To address this issue, various methods have been developed to control the amount of water used for injection purposes. However, these methods are often limited because they only work at certain concentrations and cannot account for variations in production rates. Therefore, it would be useful to develop a method that can adjust the appropriate salinity for different types of injection water based on factors like temperature and pressure conditions.
