Abstract[English]
A method, controller and apparatus for selectively feeding a brine stream includes controlling an inlet to receive a liquid stream, and controlling a first pressure pump to output a first boosted liquid stream using the received liquid stream. They also include controlling a treatment unit to output at least a brine stream by passing the liquid stream through it, and determining pressure data associated with the first boosted liquid stream at the second port. The first pressure pump includes first and second ports, the first port receives the liquid stream, and the second port outputs the first boosted liquid stream. The method, controller and apparatus also include controlling either a first or second valve, selectively to feed the brine stream to either the first or second port, respectively, based upon the pressure data.[French]
L'invention concerne un procédé, un dispositif de commande et un appareil d'alimentation sélective d'un flux de saumure comprennent la commande d'une entrée pour recevoir un flux de liquide, et la commande d'une première pompe de surpression pour délivrer en sortie un premier flux de liquide pressurisé à l'aide du flux de liquide reçu. Ils comprennent en outre la commande d'une unité de traitement pour délivrer au moins un flux de saumure par passage du flux de liquide à travers celle-ci, et la détermination de données de pression associées au premier flux de liquide pressurisé au niveau du deuxième orifice. La première pompe de surpression comprend des premier et deuxième orifices, le premier orifice recevant le flux de liquide, et le deuxième orifice délivrant le premier flux de liquide pressurisé. Le procédé, le dispositif de commande et l'appareil comprennent en outre la commande d'une première ou d'une deuxième vanne, sélectivement pour alimenter le courant de saumure vers le premier ou le deuxième orifice, respectivement, sur la base des données de pression.
