What should be noted when storing softened water resin?

Released Date: Oct 24,2015 Article Source: Yuanlai Water Treatment

Softening resin (also known as ion exchange resin) plays a crucial role in water softening equipment, and its quality directly affects the softening effect. So, what should be noted when storing softening resin? (1) Anti-freezing ion exchange resin should be stored indoors, and the ambient temperature should be maintained between 5 and 40 degrees Celsius. Resins all contain a certain amount of moisture when leaving the factory. If the temperature drops below 0℃, the water in the resin will freeze and increase in volume, causing the resin to break and crack, thereby losing its ion exchange capacity. If the ambient temperature around the resin may be below 5℃, to prevent the resin from freezing, it can be stored in a salt water solution. However, the concentration of brine should be prepared according to the temperature conditions. Different temperatures require the preparation of brine of different concentrations to prevent the brine from freezing and to protect the resin from being damaged

(1"Anti-freezing

Ion exchange resins should be stored indoors and the surrounding temperature should be maintained at a constant level5～40℃. Resins all contain a certain amount of moisture when leaving the factory. If the temperature is right0℃This will cause the water in the resin to freeze and increase in volume, leading to the crushing and cracking of the resin and thus the loss of ion exchange capacity. If the ambient temperature around the resin may be lower than5℃To prevent the resin from freezing, it can be stored in a salt water solution. However, the concentration of brine should be prepared according to the temperature conditions. Different temperatures require the preparation of brine of different concentrations to prevent the brine from freezing and to avoid damage to the resin. When preparing the concentration, you can refer to the relationship between the freezing point of brine and its concentration as shown in the following table:

(2"Prevent dryness

Ion exchange resins dry out due to heat and sun exposure, or lose moisture during storage, transportation and use, causing the volume of the resin to contract and expand suddenly. This leads to resin breakage or a decrease in mechanical properties, resulting in the loss or reduction of ion exchange capacity. When such a situation occurs, it is strictly forbidden to directly put the resin into water. Instead, it should first be soaked in saturated brine to allow the resin to expand slowly and prevent it from breaking. Ion exchange resins must not be stored outdoors. In addition, ion exchange resins should not be stored for a long time and generally should not exceed this limit5In the year. Otherwise, especially for anionic resins, their exchange capacity may be significantly reduced due to the decomposition of exchange groups. In addition, ion exchange resins should not be stored for a long time and generally should not exceed this limit5In the year. Otherwise, especially for anionic resins, their exchange capacity may be significantly reduced due to the decomposition of exchange groups. This is also a point to note when storing softening resins.

(3Mold prevention

If ion exchange resins are left unused in the exchanger for a long time, they will grow moss and multiply, causing them to mold and result in resin contamination. Therefore, water change and backwashing should be carried out regularly. It can also be used1.5%Soak in formaldehyde solution.

Special note: When storing softening resins, there is another aspect that is often overlooked: anionic resins and cationic resins should be stacked separately and labeled. They must not be mixed.

: EDI ultra-pure water system

Yuan LaiEDIThe ultra-pure water equipment uses electro-deionization technology.EDIElectrodeionization is a water purification method that combines the dual advantages of electrodialysis and ion exchange. It does not require acid-base chemical regeneration and can continuously and stably prepare high-purity ultrapure water. Under the action of a direct current electric field, ion separation in water is completed. At the same time, water is electrolyzed to generate hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions, achieving automatic regeneration of the resin without the need to stop the machine for manual regeneration. The pre-treatment combined with reverse osmosis can prevent oxidized substances from damaging the resin, ensuring stable effluent quality and widely meeting the high-standard water usage requirements of various industries.

: Non-negative pressure water supply equipment

The non-negative pressure water supply equipment can be directly connected to the municipal water supply network, making full use of the residual pressure of the original network for superimposed water supply. Fully enclosed operation does not require the construction of a domestic water tank, eliminating secondary pollution. Intelligent variable frequency voltage stabilization, energy-saving, quiet and easy installation, it is the preferred equipment for secondary water supply in high-rise residential buildings and commercial buildings.

: Constant pressure water supply equipment

Constant pressure water supply equipment is widely used in central air conditioning, floor heating, industrial closed-loop water circulation, and boiler systems. It integrates automatic pressure stabilization, automatic water replenishment, automatic exhaust, pressure relief and buffering functions. It stabilizes the pressure in the pipeline network, eliminates abnormal sounds caused by air blockage, and prevents damage from negative pressure and water shortage in the pipeline. It is an essential supporting equipment for HVAC and circulating water systems.
