What is ion exchange resin?
Ion exchange is a process in which dissolved ions get removed from a solution and then get replaced with other ions that have a similar (or the exact same) electrical charge. The ion exchange resin, then, is the medium used to facilitate that ion exchange reaction. This resin is made out of polymers that create a system of hydrocarbons.
What are common applications of ion exchange resins?

The ion exchange process is commonly used throughout numerous industries. An example of  ion exchange application is water softening, which effectively reduces the amount of magnesium and calcium content in the water. Ion exchange resins can also be used for the removal of toxic metals from water.

The main industrial applications of ion exchange resins include:

  • Purified water for power engineering
  • Soft water production
  • Metals finishing
  • Food and beverage production
  • Sugar production
  • Pharmaceutical technology
  • Industrial water treatment
  • Hydro-metallurgy
  • Semiconductor applications
  • Potable water treatment
What are advantages and disadvantages of ion exchange resins?

There are many advantages and disadvantages of using  ion exchange process in industrial applications. Understanding what these pros/cons are should help you identify if this technique is right for you. 

Advantages of Ion Exchange

The primary advantages of the ion exchange process include:

  • Can regenerate the resin that’s used.
  • Initial investment is considerably more affordable than other water treatment methods.
  • Is extremely effective at removing inorganic ions from water.

Disadvantages of Ion Exchange
Despite the many benefits of using ion exchange resins in the appropriate separation processes, challenging issues can arise, which include:

  • Unable to effectively remove bacteria from water.
  • Over time, it is natural to lose some percentage of operating ability, because of oxidation, inadequate regeneration, grease, organic substances.
How long does ion exchange resin last?

As a general rule, you can expect an ion exchange resin to last about 10 to 15 years in water treatment. Over time, thermal degradation alters the resin’s molecular structure such that it is no longer able to bind with the functional groups of ions, resulting in compromised operational performance and shorter product life.

How to dispose of used ion exchange resin?

Generally, used ion exchange resins are dumped in landfill in the exhausted form, typically in the Na, K, Ca or Mg form for the cation resin, and Cl, CO3 or SO4 for the anion. The resin in this state is non-hazardous and can be safely disposed of in general waste.

The disposal of resins where the resins have been used for non-traditional water purification uses, and may be contaminated with heavy metals or radioactive anions or cations, then the nature of the contaminant determines the safe disposal method :-

Acid or alkali – treat with alkali or acid to render the resin into the exhausted form, while generating a neutral elutant. Dispose of the exhausted resin in the normal way.

Heavy metals – concentrate the heavy metals through regeneration, then treat the resin as for acid or alkali. The concentrated heavy metals will be subject to specific regulations.

Radioactive contamination – check with the federal regulations, but these would be stored in an approved facility until the radiation flux meets the regulated maximum, then they may be disposed of according to the appropriate regulations.
