Purolite® MB46LT
Mixed Bed Exchange Resin -
Light Cation
Purolite MB46LT is a special
high quality resin mixture for direct purification
of water. The ratio of component resins
has been specifically tailored to provide
a high capacity for cations removable. It
is therefore recommended where waters which
contain bicarbonate, carbonate or even hydroxide
ions are being treated, or where the limiting
factor in performance could be kinetics
of the cation resin. Waters which contain
traces of iron or other metal corrosion
contamination also benefit from treatment
using this resin mixture. Purolite MB46LT
is suitable for use in regenerable or non-regenerable
cartridges and in large ion exchange units.
Passage of water at recommended flow rates
through the resin as supplied can achieve
almost complete reduction of total dissolved
solids during the operation cycle. The residuals
produce average conductivity values of less
than 2 µS/cm for a major portion of
the service run which may be extended depending
upon the final water quality acceptable.
Almost equivalent volumes of pure water
of identical quality may be obtained after
regeneration but only if sufficient regenerant
quantities are employed to achieve the percentage
conversion levels equivalent to those of
the "as supplied" resin. Generally
acceptable capacity and quality is obtained
economically at lower regeneration levels.
