Purolite's complete line of Purolite® ion exchange resins for perchlorate keep water safe and clean. Purolite has highly effective solutions to bring levels of perchlorate to zero detect. Although the US EPA has not yet set a MCL for Perchlorate, this chemical meets Safe Drinking Water Act criteria for regulation as a contaminant, and a MCL level will be set in the near future. Various states have MCLs and MCLGs to meet, as low as 1 µg/L.

SST® resins were selected and installed at a large California drinking water facility to treat nitrates and high hardness levels. Plant operators are beyond satisfied that salt usage and rinse water savings are at 50%! SST resins use an advanced bead structure to increase regeneration efficiency, reduce leakage and fouling, and conserve rinse and dilution water so that systems run better, with less expense and enhanced performance.

Purolite provides complete turnkey change-out services and media regeneration services for arsenic to help public water systems meet maximum contaminant level goals. Ferrix A33E is infused with iron oxide for extreme selectivity for arsenic. And best of all, it can be regenerated though an NSF/ANSI 61 approved process with full chain of custody documentation. Whether contamination results from naturally occurring substances, or man-made sources, Purolite resins and environmentally sound processes keep your water clean, clear and safe.

Suspended solids and other contaminants can wreak havoc on IEX system performance. Regular cleaning can prevent accumulation of solids and extend resin life. Ensuring proper regenerant quantity and proactively following step-by-step procedures for tackling fouling by bacteria, algae, iron, manganese, organics and oil can help get your system back to operating efficiently. Taking time to learn about procedures for cleaning fouled or contaminated resins can lead to better system performance.
