Condensate Polishing

Most power plants require a high water quality, essential for long and stable equipment operation, without corrosion or deposit of scale.

A specific range of high performance resins have been developed for the removal of trace ions from condensate before recycling the water back to the boilers. Condensate polishing plants are generally operating at high flow rate, high temperature and most of the time an external regeneration requiring higher resistant ion exchange resins.

Depending on the conditions, CHEMRA offers a full range of uniform resins from the TREVER®|JET range either as gel type or macroporous.

Our recommended ion exchange resins for condensate polishing include:
