| 20100307972 | SELECTIVE SULPHATE REMOVAL BY EXCLUSIVE ANION EXCHANGE FROM HARD WATER WASTE STREAMS - The invention provides waste water treatment processes utilizing an ion exchange resin to remove sulphate anions, while adjusting the pH of the ion exchange loading solution with carbon dioxide gas. The effect of the resin loading reactions is that dissolved sulphate is replaced with sequestered carbon dioxide gas, in the form of dissolved bicarbonate, in the treated water and the cations are not removed from the solution. | 12-09-2010 |
