Biomass Boilers Market Dynamics

DRIVER

"Mandated brine recovery and zero liquid discharge policies"

In 2023, more than 20 national jurisdictions enforced brine discharge limits or recovery quotas, pushing installations. For example, in India, five states mandated 90 % brine recovery in desal plants by 2025. In China, over 150 ZLD projects were a part of 2023 plans, representing roughly 100 000 m³/day of new capacity. The Middle East awarded contracts for brine concentration totalling 120 000 m³/day in 2023.

RESTRAINT

"High energy consumption and operational cost"

Thermal concentration systems require 50–150 kWh/m³ of energy depending on salinity, making up 30–40 % of operating expenditure. In 2023, projects citing energy cost concerns accounted for ~35 % of dropped proposals. In parts of the Middle East, power tariffs of USD 0.10–0.15 per kWh pushed many developers to delay investment. Membrane systems face fouling issues in high salinity feed (over 70 g/L), where flux decline of 20–30 % is common, increasing cleaning cycles by 25–30 %. 

OPPORTUNITY

"Growth in resource recovery from brine streams"

Recovering valuable salts, lithium, potash and magnesium from concentrated brines opens new revenue streams. In 2023, ~8 new brine mining projects using BCT modules were commissioned, each targeting 1 000–5 000 tonnes/year recovery. The lithium recovery share in new brine concentration projects climbed from 2 % in 2021 to 7 % in 2023. In Chile, pilot projects treated 50 000 m³/day brine for lithium and boron recovery. In the Gulf region, ~12 projects in 2023 pursued zero liquid discharge with recovery of ~10 000 tonnes/year of salts. 

CHALLENGE

"Scaling and reliability at high salinity and complex feed streams"

At salinity levels above 100 g/L TDS, system reliability drops: membrane systems face flux decline of 30–40 %, and thermal scaling becomes significant. In 2023, ~25 % of full-scale projects reported unplanned shutdowns due to scaling. In oil & gas waters with complex organics, 15 pilot projects in 2022–2023 required additional pretreatment steps, increasing costs by 20–30 %.
