Use of good quality Storage
regenerants lon exchange resins require proper care at all times.
The resin must never be allowed to become dry.
All ion exchange resins are subject to fouling and
blockage of active groups by precipitated iron. Hence Regularly open the plastic bags and check the
the iron content in the feed water should be low and condition of the resin when in storage. If not moist,
the regenerant sodium hydroxide must be essentially add enough clean demineralised water and keep it in

the anion exchangers are prone to oxidative attack drum in the shade. Recommended storage
resulting in problems such as loss of capacity, resin temperature is between 20°C and 40° C
clumping, etc. Therefore sodium hydroxide should
have as low a chlorate content as possible. Good
quality regenerant of technical or chemically pure Safety
grade should be used to obtain best results.
Acid and alkali solutions used for regeneration are
corrosive and should be handled in a manner that
Packing will prevent eye and skin contact. If any oxidising
agents are used, necessary safety precautions should
