Preconditioning of Resin:

1. Load resin in the column and backwash with process water to expand the resin bed by at least 50%-60% for 10 minutes. Allow resin to settle and drain water from the column up to the resin bed level.
2. Fill the resin column with 2 BV of deionized water and soak for a minimum of 12 hours.
3. Drain water up to the resin bed level.
4. Carry out brine regeneration using 8 lbs/cft NaCl as a 6% solution at a 2 BV/hr flow rate. Rinse with demineralized water until the effluent is chloride-free.
