ANALYSE DES PROCESSUS
Systèmes d’échange d’ions
Ion Exchange Systems
To produce pure boiler feedwater, alternatively to a reverse osmosis (RO) system, an ion exchange system can be used comprising of cation and anion vessels and a mixed bed for final polishing. Steel pressure vessels filled with ion exchanger resins absorb all salt components (cations and anions) from the feed water. The ion exchanger resins need to be regenerated using strong acidic and caustic solutions.
Keyfacts Application
Sector
Production of pure boiler feedwater
Application
2 Applications (1. Conductivity after Cation Exchanger, 2. Conductivity after Anion Exchanger)
Measured Parameter
Conductivity
Key Requirements
Measuring in low pH and neutral pH water
Measuring in Cation free and demineralized Water
Application Description
Specific conductivity and cation conductivity needs to be measured after each vessel. To reduce overall cost and downtime for regeneration, these measurements are mandatory to run the system effectively.
Requirements of Application
Amount of chemicals used and production of wastewater can be minimized by optimized control.
