Hydraulic Characteristics

BACKWASH

During up-flow backwash, the resin bed should be expanded in volume between 50 and 70% for at least 10 to 15 minutes. When first putting into service, approximately 30 minutes of expansion is usually sufficient. Bed expansion increases with flow rate and decreases with influent fluid temperature. Avoid loss of resin through the top of the vessel by over expansion.

PRESSURE DROP

The pressure drop across a bed of ion exchange resin depends on particle size distribution, bed depth, voids volume, flow rate, and viscosity. Factors such as filtered particulate matter, abnormal resin compressibility, or incomplete bed classification will increase head loss. Service flow rates may vary from 10 to 40 BV/h depending on water quality, application, and plant design.
