Ion exchange is a special process in water treatment . The special exchange resins that are located in the pressure tanks of such a water treatment plant are called ion exchangers.

functional principle

As the name suggests, ions are exchanged during ion exchange. In our water softening systems, for example, calcium and magnesium ions are exchanged for sodium ions. Calcium and magnesium are the substances that later lead to limescale deposits. Sodium, on the other hand, dries largely without leaving any residue.
