AB  - Water resources are becoming scarce meaning that reuse options are receiving more 
      and more attention. In this perspective, zero-liquid discharge (ZLD) is 
      considered as an emerging technique to minimize waste, recover resources, treat 
      toxic industrial waste streams, and mitigate potential water quality impacts in 
      receiving water streams. Although ZLD systems are capable of minimizing 
      contamination of water sources and amplifying water supply, its industrial scale 
      applications are restricted due to their high cost and intensive energy 
      consumption. In ZLD systems, membrane-based technologies are an attractive future 
      strategy for industrial wastewater reclamation. Therefore, this review examines 
      why a greater focus on environmental protection and water security is leading to 
      more widespread adoption of ZLD technology in various industries. We highlight 
      existing ZLD processing schemes, including thermal and membrane-based processes, 
      and discuss their limitations and potential solutions. We also investigated 
      global application of ZLD systems for resource recovery from wastewater. Finally, 
      we discuss the potential environmental impacts of ZLD technologies and provide 
      some focus on future research needs.
