AQUALINE DEIONIZATION SYSTEMS

All untreated water contains dissolved mineral salts. These salts are separated 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 the purification process is carried out.

Deionization System is the process of removing minerals, namely cations and anions, in water. This process is done through ion exchangers that 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 combines both types of resin, that is, where both anionic and cationic ions are removed, is called Mixed Bed Ion Exchanger. Raw water passing through ion exchangers exchanges its cationic charges (Ca, Mg, Na) with the H+ ion bound to the cation exchange resins, and its anionic charges (Cl, So4, HCO3, SiO2) with the OH- ion bound to the anion exchange resins. As a result of ion exchange, OH- and H+ ions given to water combine with each other to form water molecules. Water is purified from positively and negatively charged ions at the system exit and is highly purified. Resins, which absorb the ion charges in water, reach the saturation point after a while, that is, they begin to fail to produce water of the desired quality. The regeneration of spent resins (cleaning them from the ions they retain) occurs through the regeneration process. During regeneration, the anionic resin renews itself with caustic and the cationic resin with acid.

Leaving water quality in Aqualine Deionization Systems; It depends on many various factors such as number of tanks, raw water quality, ion exchange type and amount.
