Subsequently, one of the two wells was utilized to inject fresh water and the other was used to extract brine. Mining history of well S1: since 2000, this well has been producing brine through the water solution method. From 2000 to 2005, brine was mined for 61 months, and the cumulative salt production (NaCl) was 58,941.48 tons.

Brine has been produced commercially using the solution mining process for more than 100 years. After a well is drilled into the salt dome, fresh water is pumped down the well. This water dissolves the underground salt until it becomes a fully saturated brine solution, which is collected at the surface. Texas Brine Company and its related ...

The salt caverns are ideal sites for energy storage. At present, all the salt caverns are formed by solution mining [13] (Fig. 1). Solution mining developed in China long ago, where the natural dissolution of rock salt in water was practiced more than 1400 years ago [10], At that time, the debrining string consisted of bamboo.

The solids typically include iron sulfides. The distribution of H 2 S between water and gas depends on the pH, the temperature and the salinity of the pond water and brine. For potash solution mining, when the pond water is re-injected into the deep salt-bearing formation to extract potash, various microorganisms feed off the organic matter.

What is Solution Mining? Solution mining is the process of extracting underground, water-soluble minerals (salt, potash, trona, etc.), through one or more drilled wells, by dissolving the minerals with water. As the water circulates, it dissolves the mineral and becomes saturated, the brine is forced up a separate pipe string to the surface.
