Ion exchange resin, ECOMIX A, bulk packaging, removal of hardness, iron, manganese, ammonium and moderate organic matter, ion exchange capacity of 35g CaCO3/liter

The Ecomix A resin is a filter media made from a mix of 5 ion exchange resins and natural and synthetic absorbent materials, specially designed to remove hardness, iron, manganese, ammonium and organic matter from water. Ecomix A filter media is designed to treat water with moderate concentrations of iron, manganese, ammonium and moderate organic content. Ecomix A can soften water up to 42 German degrees.

Ecomix A resin is used in cabinet-type or separate-tank softening stations and is discharged directly into the fiberglass tank of the automatic filtration station. Initially, the resin is combined and the layers of the 5 resins cannot be distinguished. After the first regeneration of the automatic station, the resin mix settles into distinct layers due to the different densities of the 5 resin types. To regenerate the Ecomix A resin, softening salt tablets will be used.

How does Ecomix A resin work?
Raw water passes through all 5 layers of Ecomix A resin and will absorb, in turn, calcium and magnesium ions, iron, manganese, ammonium and organic matter from the water. During water filtration through the cation exchange resin, Ca2+ and Mg2+ hardness ions are replaced with Na+ ions, thus reducing water hardness to a minimum. Replacing calcium and magnesium ions with sodium ions prevents the formation of limescale deposits on the heating surfaces of boilers, heaters and heat exchangers.

Each layer of filter media in this resin will absorb the respective elements. As water passes through the resin, the number of sodium ions capable of performing the exchange decreases, while the number of ions retained on the resin increases, until the cation exchange resin reaches saturation. That is why the resin must be regenerated by passing a sodium chloride solution (brine) through the cation exchange layer, which will restore the exchange capacity of the resin for another cycle of use. Resin regeneration is performed automatically by the filtration station valve.

What are the regeneration steps?

1. The first step is to backwash the filter media, thus removing iron, manganese and ammonium compounds from between the layers.
2. Brine (salt water) is automatically introduced into the filter media, washing out hard salts and organic matter.
3. The filter media is backwashed again to remove excess brine.
4. To resettle the layers of the 5 resins, a strong jet of water enters the tank.
5. Water is added to the salt reservoir for use in the next regeneration cycle.

Major advantages of Ecomix A resin:

• prevents limescale deposits on sanitary fixtures
• protects electric heating elements in boilers and water heaters
• reduces unpleasant color and odor of water
• removes iron and manganese from water
• reduces ammonium and organic matter concentration
• takes up little space and solves 5 water problems in a single unit

Filtration performance of the 5 resins:

1. Inert material to improve resin backwashing
2. FerroSorb for removing iron and manganese
3. HumiSorb is an absorbent that removes organic matter and improves water color and odor
4. Ion exchange resin for removing limescale from water
5. Quartz sand for mechanical filtration and ensuring a uniform water flow

Ecomix A is a scientifically based technology, confirmed by 6 international patents, and has been in use since 1998. Ecomix A resin is suitable for both municipal water and well/borehole water.
