It has been suggested that Brine (hydrology), Brine (food) and Brine (refrigerant) be merged into this article. (Discuss) Proposed since February 2016.

A NASA technician measures the concentration level of brine using a hydrometer at a salt evaporation pond in San Francisco.

Brine is a solution of salt (usually sodium chloride) in water. In different contexts, brine may refer to salt solutions ranging from about 3.5% (a typical concentration of seawater, or the lower end of solutions used for brining foods) up to about 26% (a typical saturated solution, depending on temperature). Other levels of concentration are called in different names:

Water salinity based on dissolved salts

Fresh water	Brackish water	Saline water	Brine
< 0.05%	0.05–3%	3–5%	> 5%

It is held that 0 °F (−17.78 °C) was initially set as the zero point in the Fahrenheit temperature scale, as it was the coldest temperature that Daniel G. Fahrenheit could reliably reproduce by freezing brine.^[1]

At 100 °C (373.15 K, 212 °F), saturated sodium chloride brine is about 28% salt by weight i.e. 39.12 g salt dissolves in 100 mL of water at 100 °C. At 0 °C (273.15 K, 32 °F), brine can only hold about 26% salt.^[3]

The thermal conductivity of seawater (3.5% dissolved salt by weight) is 0.6 W/mK at 25 °C.^[4] The thermal conductivity decreases with increasing salinity and increases with increasing temperature; these graphs and online calculations plot thermal conductivity for varying salinity and temperature:^[5]

Density of brine at various concentrations and temperatures can be approximated with a linear equation:^[6] Density (lb/ft³)= a₃ - (a₂*Temperature (F)) where the values of a_n are:

Weight %	a2	a3
5	.043	72.60
10	.039	73.72
15	.035	74.86
20	.032	76.21
25	.030	77.85

Electrolysis of brine[edit]

About four percent of hydrogen gas produced worldwide is created by electrolysis. The majority of this hydrogen produced through electrolysis is a side product in the production of chlorine.

• 2 NaCl(aq) + 2 H₂O(l) → 2 NaOH(aq) + H₂(g) + Cl₂(g)

Usages[edit]

Refrigerating fluid[edit]

Main article: Brine (refrigerant)

Brine is a common fluid used in large refrigeration installations for the transport of thermal energy from place to place. It is used because the addition of salt to water lowers the freezing temperature of the solution and the heat transport efficiency can be greatly enhanced for the comparatively low cost of the material. The lowest freezing point obtainable for NaCl brine is −21.1 °C (−6.0 °F) at 23.3wt% NaCl.^[7] This is called the eutectic point.

De-icing[edit]

In lower temperatures, a brine solution can be used to de-ice or reduce freezing temperatures on roads.^[8]

Culinary[edit]

Main article: Brine (food)

In cooking, brine is used for food brining and salting.

Hydrology[edit]

Main article: Brine (hydrology)

In hydrology, brine is a form of salt water, namely, water with relatively high concentration of salt (usually sodium chloride).
