Abstract
Aqueous solutions containing bromide and one or more polyvalent anions are separated by nanofiltration into two streams, a brine enriched in the bromide and a brine enriched in the polyvalent anion. The bromide-enriched brine can be concentrated using reverse osmosis, and the concentrated brine can be used, e.g., as feed to a process for recovering elemental bromine or for the production of metal bromide salt.
