Several years ago, Purolite^® realized that there was a demand for a better defined system which avoided potential problems prevalent on certain other packed bed designs. Resulting from this Purolite^® installed a Packed Bed Pilot Plant at the Pontyclun former production site, and over a period of eighteen months generated detailed scientific information on matters relating to:

• Basic design of units and systems
• Detailed design of distributed systems
• Direction of flow - exhaustion/regeneration
• Hydraulic factors relating to resin compaction and pressure drop
• Backwash facility requirements
• Resin bead size gradings
• Resin capacities and leakage characteristics
• Resin transfer procedures
