Calgon Carbon's fixed bed modular ion exchange systems are designed for the removal of dissolved ionic compounds from water or other liquids. A fixed bed system can be used in a wide variety of applications and can be modified to best meet the site requirements and treatment objectives.
The pre-engineered design assures that the system performs as desired with minimal design engineering input. The design has the benefit of Calgon Carbon’s extensive expertise and has been proven in numerous applications. The engineering package can be provided quickly and the system expedited through Calgon Carbon’s production facilities.
Used in a variety of applications to purify process water and other liquids.
Calgon Carbon’s Fixed Bed Ion Exchange Systems have been installed worldwide and is a proven technology. The process piping network accommodates operation of the two ion exchange vessels in parallel or series flow, with either vessel in the lead position. The piping can also isolate either vessel for resin exchange or backwash operations, while maintaining flow through the other vessel. In addition, the Calgon Carbon underdrain design provides for efficient use of the resin through uniform collection of water at the bottom of the bed and even distribution of backwash water to minimize resin bed disturbance.
All systems are designed for use with Calgon Carbon’s closed loop resin exchange service. Using specially designed food grade resin transport trailers, the spent resin can be removed from the vessel via pressurized resin-water slurry; fresh resin is refilled in the same manner. This closed loop transfer is accomplished without exposure of personnel to either spent or fresh resin. Calgon Carbon can also manage the disposal or regeneration services of the spent resin.
