High-Purity Output
EDI systems produce deionized water continuously via electrochemical processes, delivering consistent high purity (often >15 MΩ·cm) without interruptions, ideal for applications needing steady ultra-pure water.
Chemical-Free & Eco-Friendly
Unlike traditional ion exchange, EDI uses electricity instead of regenerating chemicals, cutting waste and operational costs while supporting sustainable practices.
Low Maintenance & Reliable
With no resin replacement or chemical cycles, it has minimal upkeep needs. Built-in monitoring ensures real-time performance tracking, reducing downtime.
Scalable & Versatile
Adaptable to varying flow rates (lab to industrial scale), it serves industries like electronics, pharmaceuticals, and power generation requiring continuous ultra-pure water.
Project: Export of a Custom EDI Water Purification System to a German Automotive Manufacturer
Client & Challenge: We provided a solution for a leading German automotive manufacturer seeking to reduce freshwater consumption and wastewater discharge from their high-precision paint shop.
Our Solution: Our company exported and commissioned a customized Electrodeionization (EDI) system, which was seamlessly integrated into their existing wastewater treatment loop.
Technical Role: The EDI unit effectively polished the pre-treated wastewater, consistently producing high-purity water with a resistivity of 15 MΩ·cm, suitable for the final rinse stage.
Key Outcome: This closed-loop system, enabled by our technology, achieved a remarkable water recovery rate of over 70%, drastically cutting the client's operational costs and environmental footprint.
Client Benefit: The ultra-pure water ensured a spot-free, superior paint finish on their vehicles, directly enhancing their end-product quality and supporting their sustainable manufacturing goals.
Pretreatment: Raw water first undergoes multi-stage filtration (sediment filters, activated carbon) to eliminate particles, chlorine, and organic matter, preventing EDI membrane/electrode fouling. Softeners may be added to reduce hardness if needed.
Reverse Osmosis (RO): Pretreated water enters the RO system, where high pressure forces it through semipermeable membranes, removing 95-99% of dissolved solids (salts, heavy metals), lowering TDS to <50 ppm—critical for EDI efficiency.
EDI Processing: RO permeate flows into EDI modules. An electric field drives remaining ions through ion-exchange membranes; water splits into H⁺ and OH⁻ via electrolysis, continuously regenerating ion-exchange resins without chemical regeneration. This achieves ultrapure water (conductivity <0.1 μS/cm).
Storage & Distribution: Ultrapure water is stored in sanitized tanks, then distributed via loop systems with UV disinfection to maintain purity until use.
