ION EXCHANGE SYSTEM
"The Right Way for Recycling and Zero Discharge"
 
 
THE IX SERIES
METAL EXTRACTION AND TREATMENT SYSTEM FOR PROCESS WASTEWATER
The IX Series is today's most cost-effective and practical approach to metal extraction and treatment system for process wastewater.  Save money now by eliminating sewer charges, and avoid long-term liability for waste disposal.  With the IX Series, benefit from a short-term payback period and conveniently achieve zero discharge.
 
LEEI IX SERIES - ION exchanger
 
    A Tested and Proven Sludge-free Method
The IX Series uses ion-exchange technology, which has been tested and proven to be an effective and dependable means to completely eliminate metal sludge from forming.  A different ion-specific resin is used according to the metal to be extracted to provide a more effective metal recovery and to produce the desired effluent.
    Fully Automated
The IX Series is a convenient skid-mounted equipment, which runs through the use of computerized, advanced programmable controllers.   It is simple to operate and easy to maintain. A "lead-lag" design concept provides uninterrupted service even during ion-exchange column regeneration.
    Flexibility for Any Operation
The IX Series can be designed to suit your specific operation and is ideal for use in the PC board manufacturing, general plating, and rigid-dish industries.  Modules are available for point-source type treatment (where the waste stream is generated).  In this configuration, treatment of each stream can be optimized.  Skid-mounted systems treat all waste streams and provide service flow rates up to 200 GPM for high throughput.  For flow rates exceeding 200GPM, we customize the design of the treatment system according to the specific operational need.
    How the IX Series Works
  • After pH adjustment and filtration, the wastewater stream flows to two ion-exchange columns in series, where metal removal takes place.  This ensures effluent water to meet the most stringent limits.  From the IX Series, treated water following pH adjustment can be directed to the sewer, or can be easily reclaimed.
  • Working in conjunction with a microprocessor, a metal analyzer continuously monitors the metal concentrations in the treated water.  When the preset limit is reached, the primary column undergoes the regeneration process, and the secondary column assumes the role of the primary column.  After regeneration, the primary column takes over the function of the secondary column until the next regeneration cycle.
  • Column resins are regenerated by specific regenerant solutions according to the metal being removed.  The dissolved metal ions in the regenerant solution are removed.  The dissolved metal ions in the regenerant solution are removed in an electrorecovery cell.  The cell's mesh-type cathode provides a large surface area which results in an extremely efficient metal removal.  Recovered metal can be sold as scrap to recyclers.
