Application Information

• Irrigation Water: Boron limits typically 1 mg/L for agricultural applications.
• Ultrapure Water: Can reduce boron concentrations to ng/L levels for semiconductor manufacturing.
• Wastewater: Selective removal of boron compounds from waste streams.
• Magnesium Brine: Can reduce boron concentration from ~100 mg/L to <10 mg/L.
• Produced Water: Efficiently reduces boron concentrations for gel fracking fluid formulations.
• Drinking Water: AmberSep™ IRA743 Chelating Resin is intended for industrial purposes only. For drinking water, AmberLite™ PWA10 Ion Exchange Resin is recommended.
