Mix – Bed Plant

SWJAL is a leading Mixed Bed Plant Manufacturer in Mumbai, India. Mix Bed Units are ion exchange systems used to achieve superior water quality, typically positioned downstream of demineralizers or reverse osmosis systems. They can also be used as standalone units for low TDS waters, known as “Working Mixed Beds.” These units remove ionic contaminants to produce demineralized water with conductivity less than 1.0 µS/cm.

Mixed Bed Plant Process

The process involves water entering through the top, flowing through a resin bed where ionic contaminants are exchanged for H and OH ions, and exiting through the bottom. When capacity is exhausted, regeneration involves backwashing, separating resins, introducing caustic and acid, rinsing, and remixing the resins with air.

When the resin’s capacity is exhausted, regeneration begins. The resin is backwashed, and the cation and anion resins are separated based on their densities. Caustic sodium hydroxide and acid are introduced separately to regenerate the resins. After regeneration, a slow rinse displaces the regenerate chemicals, and the resins are re-mixed with air before the unit is returned to service.

Mix Bed Plant Features

Mix Bed Plants are designed to be water and chemical-efficient, reducing operating costs and providing a sustainable solution. They can be supplied as pre-engineered plants or customized to specific requirements. Additionally, non-regenerable mixed bed polishers offer a cost-effective solution for final polishing steps, with off-site resin regeneration options to eliminate the need for on-site chemical handling.

They can be internally or externally regenerated, with options for off-site resin regeneration to eliminate on-site chemical handling. Mixed bed plants combine cation and anion resins in a single vessel, offering higher water quality than two-bed systems, and can further treat water already processed by reverse osmosis.

FAQ

A Mixed Bed (MB) plant employs a combination of cation and anion exchange resins in a single vessel. As water passes through, the resins remove dissolved ions, producing highly demineralized water.
Mix Bed plants deliver ultra-pure water with low conductivity, versatile applications, and the ability to integrate with other treatment systems.
MB plants are essential in pharmaceuticals, electronics, power generation, and other industries requiring high-purity water.
