Cation and Anion Exchange Resin Pretreatment

Ion exchange resins often contain solvents, unreacted substances from the polymerization process, and small amounts of oligomers. They may also adsorb metal ions such as iron, copper, and aluminum. When the resin comes into contact with acid or other solutions, these soluble impurities can leach into the solution, causing water quality contamination during the initial use. Therefore, new resins must be properly pretreated in the ion exchange equipment before use.

  •   Ion exchange resins often contain solvents, unreacted substances from the polymerization process, and small amounts of oligomers. They may also adsorb metal ions such as iron, copper, and aluminum.

Therefore, new resins must be pretreated in the ion exchange equipment before use.

      1. Pretreatment steps for cation resin:

      First, use saturated brine solution, approximately three times the volume of the resin to be treated. Soak the resin in the brine solution for 18-20 hours, then drain the brine and rinse with clean water until the effluent is free of yellow color. Next, soak the resin in 2%-4% NaOH solution, in the same volume as before, for 2-4 hours (or perform a small volume wash). After draining the alkali solution, rinse the resin until the effluent is nearly neutral.

      Finally, soak the resin in 5% HCl solution, using the same volume as before, for 4-8 hours. Drain the acid solution and rinse with clean water until neutral.

      2. Pretreatment of anion resin:

      The first step in its treatment is the same as the first step for cation resin pretreatment. Then soak in 5% HCl for 4-8 hours, drain the acid, and rinse with water until neutral. Finally, soak in 2%-4% NaOH solution for 4-8 hours, drain the alkali, and rinse with clean water until neutral.
