Deionization System is a water treatment system that removes ions from water. It is also known as demineralization, ion exchange, or ion removal system. This system is used in various industries such as power plants, semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics, among others.
The Deionization System removes impurities from water by using ion exchange resins. These resins contain charged ions that attract and exchange the ions present in the water. In this process, the positively charged ions are attracted to negatively charged resins, the negatively charged ions are attracted to positively charged resins, and the ions are exchanged. This results in the removal of all the impurities from the water, including dissolved salts, minerals, and metals.
There are two types of Deionization Systems:
Cation Exchange Resin - removes positively charged ions like calcium, magnesium, and sodium from the water.
Anion Exchange Resin - removes negatively charged ions like chloride, nitrate, and sulfate from the water.
The Deionization System can be a part of a larger water treatment system or can be used as a standalone unit. It is available in various sizes and capacities, and the selection of the system depends on the specific application and water quality requirements.
The Deionization System is easy to install and requires minimal maintenance. However, the ion exchange resins need to be regenerated periodically to maintain the system's effectiveness. The frequency of regeneration depends on the water quality, usage, and resin type.
