AQUALINE DEIONIZATION SYSTEMS
All untreated water contains dissolved mineral salts. These salts dissociate into positively charged cations and negatively charged anions in water. Thanks to the Deionization System, the amount of these ions is reduced to very low levels and purification is done.
Deionization System is the process of removing minerals, namely cation and anion ions in the water. This process is done by means of ion exchangers, which are included in the process and contain resin filling. The unit where cation ions are removed is called Cation Exchanger, and the unit where anion ions are removed is called Anion Exchanger. The unit that contains both types of resin together, that is, both anionic and cationic ions are removed, is called a Mixed Bed Ion Exchanger. Raw water, passing through ion exchangers, exchanges its cationic charges (Ca, Mg, Na) with H+ ions bound to cation exchange resins, and their anionic charges (Cl, So4, HCO3, SiO2) with OH- ions bound to anion exchange resins. As a result of ion exchange, the OH- and H+ ions given to the water combine with each other to form the water molecule. The water, which is purified from its positively and negatively charged ions at the system exit, is highly purified. The resins, which take the ion charges in the water, reach the saturation point after a while, that is, they cannot produce water of the desired quality. Refreshing the spent resins (cleaning them from the ions they hold) takes place with the regeneration process. During regeneration, anionic resin renews itself with caustic and cationic resin with acid.
Leaving water quality in Aqualine Deionization Systems; It depends on many factors such as number of tanks, raw water quality, type and amount of ion exchange.
