Description
Acrylic, Macroporous, Weak Acid Cation Exchange Resin for Industrial Demineralization, Softening, and Dealkalization Applications
AmberLite HPR8300 H Ion Exchange Resin is a high-quality resin for use in industrial demineralization and softening applications when high performance and cost-effective operation is required. The exceptionally high total capacity and the particle size of the resin help yield excellent operating capacity and rinse characteristics, while reducing chemical regenerant and water usage.
When AmberLite HPR8300 H is operated in the Na+ form, it will remove total hardness even in high salinity waters. When operated in the H+ form, it will remove only the hardness associated with alkalinity—a weak acid cation resin operated in the H+ form is well-suited for use with strong acid cation resins to improve overall efficiency and throughput of a demineralization system by reducing the hardness exposure on the strong acid cation resin.
In Na+ form softening operation, AmberLite HPR8300 H enables improved operating capacity for total hardness versus other weak acid cation resins currently available, which allows more competitive vessel design or extended production capacity when installed in existing systems.
In dealkalization, AmberLite HPR8300 H has demonstrated improved operating capacity versus other weak acid cation resins currently available, which allows users to simultaneously minimize operating costs and environmental impacts while also preserving precious raw water resources under the right conditions.
In reverse osmosis pretreatment, AmberLite HPR8300 H can protect the membrane from hardness scaling, which can improve system recovery and operational reliability and can eliminate the use of chemicals such as antiscalant or acids for RO feedwater pH control. The resin’s ability to soften high-salinity feedwaters enables the RO to reliably operate under extremely variable and/or harsh conditions, such as with wastewater reuse or minimal liquid discharge.
AmberLite HPR8300 H is compatible with all system designs and bed configurations. In layered beds, AmberLite HPR8300 H should be paired with gel AmberLite HPR1300 H Ion Exchange Resin for the highest operating capacity and for more challenging circumstances, AmberLite HPR2800 H Ion Exchange Resin would be the preferred option.
