Water Chemistry for Demineralisation Plants (Seminar in English!)
← Back
Topic: Chemistry of acids and solutions, organic matter and its removal, silica and carbonic acid issues, measurement and troubleshooting
Who is it for? Anyone interested in DI plants, process engineering, and chemical engineering.
When? Oct. 6 + 7, 2026
Where? The Curve Hotel BayArena, Leverkusen
Requirements: This is an advanced seminar. Prior participation in one of our basic seminars is strongly recommended.
Early bird discount!
If you register at least 3 months before the start of the seminar, you will receive an early bird discount of €80.00 (net) off the seminar price.
This seminar is ideal for you if …
… you are already familiar with the basic characteristics of a DI line (function, operation, failure analysis, and resin properties)
… and would like to learn more about TOC reduction.
… you are interested in the chemistry of silica and its specific characteristics in the DI line.
… you have always wanted to know how to calculate the measurement results in a DI line before taking a measurement.
… you know that measurements only help if you know in advance what the results should be!
The following topics will be covered during the seminar
- Dissociation and association in solutions
- Behaviour of carbonic acid, acids in general, pKa values
- Classification of organics
- Pretreatment methods and TOC reduction
- Adsorption behaviour of organic matter on ion exchangers
- Chemistry of silica and its adsorption in ion exchange plants
- Calculability of water chemistry in ion exchange plants
- Advanced measurement techniques and surprising results
The emphasis of the individual sub-topics can be adapted to the interests of the respective participant group. The content presented here is simplified to provide an overview.
