ZLD) systemDue to the global water crisis, the treatment and reuse of industrial wastewater, particularly in water-intensive industries such as petrochemicals, has become a key strategy for sustainable water resource management.In recent years, growing awareness of water scarcity and water pollution, together with environmental regulatory requirements and the high costs associated with wastewater disposal, has led to increased attention toward Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) technology.This article introduces ZLD systems and examines their applications across various processes and operations in the petrochemical industry.Furthermore, the advantages, challenges, and proposed solutions for managing existing challenges are discussed.The study also reviews process and technological development trends, market demand for ZLD systems, and their anticipated growth prospects.
