A term describing water solutions containing dissolved mineral solids. The U.S. Geo logical Survey has assigned terms for degrees of salinity for waters with the following dissolved solids concentration ranges A term describing water solutions containing dissolved mineral solids.

A soil containing sufficient exchangeable sodium to interfere with the growth of most crop plants and also containing appreciable quantities of soluble salts. A soil in which the exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP) is greater than 15% and the conductivity of the saturation extract (EC) is greater than 4 mmhos/cm.

Water that generally is considered unsuitable for human consumption or for irrigation because of its high content of dissolved solids.

A nonsodic soil containing sufficient soluble salts to impair its productivity. The conductivity of the saturation extract is greater than 4 mmhos/cm (at 25•C) and the pH is usually less than 8.3.

Various, but generally the gas send to the pipeline after dehydrating, stripping and sweetening.
