Abstract Methods for evaluating subsurface disposal systems, based on data derived from membrane filtration tests and core flooding experiments, have been described in the literature. Utilizing these technique, we have developed and successfully tested equipment for evaluation of injectability of any geothermal effluent in including hypersaline brine from the Salton Sea Geothermal Field (SSGF).
