Water softener

These salts are exchanged for the soluble sodium carbonates by contact with the resin. Softener units are presented in the form of vessels containing the resin, which is periodically regenerated using a sodium chloride solution.
water softeningThis type of water treatment alone is not always sufficient for industrial applications as dissolved gases, carbonates, silica and the other ions pass through these resins which can be additional sources of corrosion, fouling, foaming or steam carry-over.
In that case, additional treatments (decarbonisation and demineralisation) are needed.
