Deionized (DI) Water

DI water removes ionized salts and charged particles, commonly used in labs, electronics manufacturing, and processes where mineral deposits can disrupt operations.

deionized

High Purity Water

Used in semiconductor and pharmaceutical manufacturing, where impurities can affect processes or product quality. Achieved through multiple filtration stages like reverse osmosis (RO), UV light sterilization, and DI.

deionized

De-mineralized Water

Similar to deionized water, it has most minerals and salts removed through ion exchange, carbon filtering, or microfiltration. Used in applications requiring high purity.

deionized

Lab & Medical Grade

Meets strict purity standards for research and medical use. Processes involve filtration, RO, DI, UV treatments, and sub-micron filtering to eliminate contaminants like bacteria and pyrogens.

Providing The Top Service Deionization For Your Industry

Service Deionization, also known as “Portable Exchange Deionization,” involves the use of tanks filled with deionization resin, which are connected to your process via flexible connectors. Once exhausted, these tanks are replaced with those regenerated at a Culligan Texas Service Center.

Advantages of Service Deionization include:

  • No chemicals or hazardous waste. This eliminates the need for frequent OSHA-required hazardous chemical training, special containment like diking, and waste treatment.
  • Reduction of maintenance costs. Culligan Texas handles the exchange of exhausted tanks as needed.
  • No capital investment required. You can choose to pay either per tank exchange or per 1,000 gallons of demineralized water consumed.
  • Flexibility to accommodate varying flow rates and water quality needs. Flow rates range from 0.5 gpm to 500 gpm, and water quality ranges from 50,000 ohm-cm to 18,000,000 ohm-cm.
  • Metals recovery and waste treatment. This technology is often used to remove heavy metals from waste streams, helping to meet NPDES or other discharge permit requirements. Regenerated tanks are handled by a licensed resource recovery facility, with the recovered metals sold for recycling.

Industries Benefiting from Commercial & Industrial Deionization:

  • Food & Beverage
  • Healthcare
  • Laundries, Dry Cleaners & Car Washes
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Power Generation

ANSI/AAMI ST108 – Are You Prepared?

In 2023, a new standard for water quality in medical device processing arrived, which replaced outdated guidelines and made the bar higher for patient safety. Culligan Texas specializes in helping healthcare providers understand and implement water grades for different stages, design systems and monitoring, and working with your water management platform.

FAQs

Deionization is the process of removing ions from water using ion exchange resins. It produces highly purified water by attracting and removing positively and negatively charged ions, making it useful in industries like electronics and pharmaceuticals.

Deionized water is used for its purity in various industries including laboratories, electronics manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, power generation, automotive battery manufacturing, cosmetics, food processing, medical device sterilization, printing, textiles, and chemical processes.

The longevity of ion exchange resins used in water deionization depends on resin quality, water contaminants, and volume processed. Resins usually last months to years before replacement or regeneration.

Maintaining a DI water system involves regular monitoring of water quality, periodic regeneration or replacement of ion exchange resins, pre-filtration to remove contaminants, system flushing, sanitization to prevent bacterial growth, and regular maintenance checks of system components.

Operating a DI water system involves initial equipment investment, ongoing expenses for consumables like resins and filters, energy costs, water consumption for processes and waste disposal, maintenance and repair expenses, labor costs for personnel, and disposal costs for regeneration waste. Effective cost management and optimizing system performance ensures reliable high-quality water production while minimizing operating expenses.
