Ion exchange column is a kind of equipment for ion exchange reaction, which is widely used in the following industries:
1. water treatment industry
Preparation of pure water: in industries with high water quality requirements, such as electronics, pharmaceuticals and food, various anions and anions in the water are removed by ion exchange column, and tap water or other water sources are treated into high-purity deionized water to meet the strict requirements for water quality in the production process. For example, ultrapure water is required for the manufacture of electronic chips, and ion exchange column is one of the key equipment for the preparation of ultrapure water.
Industrial wastewater treatment: it can be used to remove harmful substances such as heavy metal ions and acid ions in industrial wastewater, so that the wastewater can meet the discharge standard or realize the recycling of wastewater. For example, electroplating plant wastewater contains a large number of heavy metal ions, which can be removed by ion exchange column to reduce environmental pollution.
2. pharmaceutical industry
Drug separation and purification: in the process of drug production, ion exchange columns are used to separate and purify drug intermediates or finished products to remove impurities and improve the purity and quality of drugs. For example, in the production of antibiotics, antibiotics can be separated from fermentation broth and impurities can be removed by ion exchange column.
Pharmaceutical preparations: it is used to adjust the pH value or ionic strength of pharmaceutical solutions to improve the stability and solubility of drugs and facilitate the preparation processing of drugs.
3. food and beverage industry
Water softening: remove calcium and magnesium plasma in water, prevent the formation of scale, and improve the service life of food processing equipment and product quality. For example, in the brewing process of beer, the use of water softened by ion exchange column can avoid precipitation and odor of beer.
Sugar refining: in the sugar industry, it is used to remove the pigment, colloid and ionic impurities in sugar, and improve the purity and quality of sugar. For example, sugarcane juice or beet juice can be treated by ion exchange column to remove impurities and obtain refined sugar solution.
4. chemical industry
Organic synthesis: in organic synthesis reaction, ion exchange column can be used as catalyst or reaction medium to promote some chemical reactions. For example, in esterification reaction, using ion exchange resin as catalyst can improve the efficiency and selectivity of the reaction.
Separation of chemical products: used to separate and purify chemical products, such as separating different kinds of acids from mixed organic acids, or removing impurities and harmful substances from petrochemical products.
5. metallurgical industry
Metal extraction: in the process of nonferrous metal smelting, valuable metal ions are extracted from ore leaching solution through ion exchange column, such as recovering these metals from solutions containing copper, nickel, cobalt, etc.
Wastewater treatment: treat Metallurgical Wastewater, remove heavy metal ions and acid-base substances, and realize wastewater discharge and resource recovery. For example, iron ions and acid radical ions can be removed from the pickling wastewater of iron and steel plants through ion exchange columns to realize the recycling of wastewater.
6. environmental protection industry
Waste gas treatment: some ion exchange columns can be used to adsorb and remove acidic gases (such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides) or alkaline gases in waste gas to realize the purification of waste gas.
Soil remediation: ion exchange materials are applied to the remediation of contaminated soil to remove heavy metal ions or other pollutants in the soil through ion exchange and improve soil quality.
