H2SO4
on weak acid resins should always be
kept to 0.7-0.8%
on strong acid resins, a table in the
UPCORE System Engineering Handbook describes the
recommendation based upon the % calcium in the feed
water
HCl
the higher the better, with a minimum 4%,
but this could be lower with high % sodium ions in the
feed water
NaOH
on single resins, 4% is right in most
cases, warm caustic is recommended for high silica
load when silica exceeds 10 g/liter of resin, then
temperature and velocity should be considered on top
of the concentration
on layered bed anion resins, NaOH
concentration may vary depending upon silica load and
to prevent possible precipitation onto the weak base
resin where the silicate solubility is the lowest. For
example: 15 g SiO2 /l resin then use 2.5% NaOH with a
20-25 minutes contact at 35-50C
The specific conditions are all described in the
UPCORE System Engineering Handbook.
