Process Flow Diagram

The document describes a process for producing liquid chlorine and sodium hydroxide from brine. Brine from wells is purified and concentrated in multiple stages involving membrane cells and evaporators. The purified brine is then separated using a membrane cell to produce liquid chlorine and aqueous sodium hydroxide, which is further concentrated in an evaporator to 50% by weight sodium hydroxide.
