Demineralization
Whether you require deionized water quality spanning from mild or selective demineralization to ultrapure water, Cannon Artes can provide a fully customized demineralization plant using ion exchange resins (cation, anion, mixed-bed exchangers) or membrane technologies (RO, EDI) that are often coupled with forced-draught or membrane degassing solutions. Demineralization is critical for steam and power generation, the chemical-process industry, the pharma sector, food and beverage production, and the semiconductors industry. The most common industry-specific applications of demineralization are: Steam and Power Generation: demineralization of boiler feedwater (BFW) prevents the deposition of precipitated scale in the boiler and corrosion or deterioration of surfaces in contact with water; when a steam turbine is involved, a high degree of water purity is mandatory to meet the requirements of the turbine manufacture Pharma & Cosmetics: purified water is used in drug preparation in the pharma industry to comply with strict standards concerning dissolved solids and microbiological content Semiconductors/Microelectronics: demineralization of process water is necessary for the semiconductor/microelectronics industry to comply with very stringent specifications related to the miniaturization of the components Chemical Process industry: demineralization is applied to achieve specific parameters to comply with process requirements Food & Beverages: “food-grade” deionized water is used in the food & beverage industry as a raw material during the preparation of the products
