Overview
This 1-day interactive workshop will provide participants with the required water treatment knowledge and design experience in Ion Exchange / Demineralisation System. In the real world, customers usually will ask for two configurations for a Demineralisation System proposal (solution), namely: (a) Option A- BWRO unit followed by Mixed Bed, or (b) Option B - Ion Exchange Resin followed by Mixed Bed. At times, a customer may even want both options. For both options, it will also require an adequate Pre-Treatment System too, especially in very challenging feed water conditions. As such, this 1-day course will assist participants to identify and select key unit processes, and then apply the appropriate design criteria in their solutions.
The 1-day course will cover topics such as:
- Water Chemistry
- Pretreatment – Clarifier and Oil-Water-Solids Separation processes
- Demineralisation System – Application Overview and Design Considerations
- Comparison of Reverse Osmosis vs Ion Exchange for Demineralization
Discussions on system selections shall be conducted based on different water qualities.
What You’ll Learn
- Water Chemistry.
- Overview of Pre-treatment Principles and Technologies (e.g. Gravity Clarifiers, API, CPI, IGF).
- Fundamentals of Ion Exchange.
- Applications of Ion Exchange.
- Column Operation.
- Design Guidelines & Considerations.
- Comparison of Reverse Osmosis vs Ion Exchange for Demineralization.
Who Should Attend
- Design/Process Engineers and Managers in Water, Wastewater and Produced Water Treatment industry.
- Water Treatment and Sales Specialists.
- Facilities/Manufacturing Engineers and Managers.
- Anyone who wants to know real-world applications.
