Title:
METHOD OF OPERATING WATER SOFTENING APPARATUS AND WATER SOFTENING APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/103640
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Even in the case of using a raw water with bad qualities as the extrusion water, a processed water having a purity not exceeding the allowable leakage hardness can be surely acquired. At the same time, the water can be collected in a comparable amount to water softening apparatuses of other regeneration systems, thereby achieving a high economic efficiency. A sprit flow regeneration process using a raw water having a definite electrical conductivity (K≤1500 μS/cm) and a definite total hardness (H≤500 mg CaCO3/L), which comprises at least the following two modes: (a) a regenerant passing mode wherein an aqueous sodium chloride solution or an aqueous potassium chloride solution having a definite regeneration level (R=60 to 240 g/L-R) is passed through a resin bed at a definite regenerant concentration (C=5 to 15 wt% and a definite regenerant linear velocity (V1=0.7 to 2 m/s); and (b) a raw water extrusion mode, which follows the regenerant passing mode, wherein a raw water at a definite extrusion output (N=0.4 to 2.5 BV) is passed through a lower resin bed having a definite depth (D2:150 to 750 mm) at a definite extrusion linear velocity (V2=0.7 to 2 m/s). The above-described system is widely applicable to water softening apparatuses connected to instruments to which water having a low hardness should be supplied, for example, boiler apparatuses, reverse osmosis membrane apparatuses and so on.
