24、ed reverse osmosis permeatewater. On this type of feed, there is considerable water splitting and ion-exchange resin regeneration, causing certain species tobecome ionized within the device, either by the electromotive force or a localized pH shift. The This test method is applicable toboth new and
25、used devices.4.2 Pressure loss data is obtained. This information provides information relating to possible particulate plugging, fouling, orinternal damage of the device. Deionization performance, extent of silica and dissolved carbon dioxide removal, concentratingstream pH, and applied voltage are
26、 determined at a predetermined level of electrical current transfer. The ohmic (electrical)resistance is determined. This information in combination with concentrating stream pH provides basic design and performanceinformation.5. Significance and Use5.1 CEDI devices can be used to produce deionized
27、water from feeds of pretreated water. This test method permits themeasurement of key performance capabilities of CEDI devices using a standard set of conditions. The data obtained can beanalyzed to provide information on whether changes may have occurred in operating characteristics of the device in
28、dependentlyof any variability in feed water characteristics or operating conditions. Under specific circumstances, the this test method may alsoprovide sufficient information for plant design.6. Apparatus6.1 Description:6.1.1 The test apparatus is schematically represented in Fig. 1. Feed water to t
29、he apparatus may be passed through a heatexchanger and/oror other accessories to modify and/oror control feed water temperature as desired.Alternately, data obtained fromthe operation of the apparatus may be normalized for temperature if normalization factors are known.6.1.2 Feed water to the appara

The tank is unpressurized, ported to be capable of occasional cleanings or sanitizations, andincorporates needed safety features such as high temperature and overflow pro
31、tection. The tank also incorporates a drain valve.During operation of the apparatus, the drain valve may be used in combination with a valve controlling the rate of feed water toD6807 172FIG. 1 Process Flow SchematicD6807173the apparatus to aid in control of solute concentrations, water level, and t
32、emperature within the tank. The tank supplies water toa recirculation pump designed to feed water to the CEDI device at a flow rate and pressure consistent with the ratings of the CEDIdevice. A recirculation line with shut off valve from the pump discharge to the tank may be incorporated as required
33、 for properpump operation.6.1.3 Adjustment of feed water solute concentration is not required. Adjust feed water pH as required by the manufacturer ofthe CEDI device. Feed water to the CEDI device must be monitored for solute concentrations, pH (Test MethodMethods D1293),and temperature. Solute conc
34、entration may be monitored via electrical conductivity or resistivity (Test MethodMethods D1125) incombination with silica (Test MethodMethods D513) and carbon dioxide (Test Method D859) concentration measurement, oralternately may be monitored for individual ionic species and dissolved carbon dioxi
35、de and silica, depending on the feed watersupplied to the tank and the solutes of interest.6.1.4 Feed water provided to the CEDI device should be plumbed as specified by the supplier, with appropriate flow andpressure controls, internal recirculations, drains, interlocks, safety controls, and other
36、features as required. Pressure at the inlet andoutlet and flow rates of each the streams of interest must be monitored (for example, deionized water stream, concentrate stream,and electrode feed stream).6.1.5 The CEDI device should be powered as specified by the supplier, with equipment and wiring t
37、o provide appropriate supplyDC voltage and amperage, controls, interlocks, grounding, and safety features. Supply voltage and supply amperage to the CEDIdevice should be monitored at positions within the device or device assembly as specified by the supplier.6.1.6 Streams leaving the CEDI device may
38、 be returned to the tank via return lines.Alternately, one or more of the streams maybe sent either completely or partially to drain via appropriate valving if such operation provides easier control of desired feed waterconditions. The outlet deionization stream is monitored for the same solutes as
39、for the feed water. The outlet concentrating streamis also monitored for the same solutes as for the feed water. Control of temperature is not required. For CEDI devices with internalrecirculation and “feed and bleed” features, solute concentrations must be measured at locations that are indicative
40、of conditionswithin the CEDI module prior to mixing of recirculation flows.6.1.7 Feed water to the tank of the test apparatus shall be prepared using reverse osmosis apparatus. The pretreatmentrequirements for the RO are optional depending on the application, but should, at minimum, conform to the m
41、anufacturersspecifications for the particular system.6.2 Installation:6.2.1 Materials of construction shall be as specified by the supplier of the CEDI device and in conformance to standardengineering practice.6.2.2 Controls and monitors should be calibrated and maintained according with suppliers r
42、equirements and standardengineering practice.7. Reagents7.1 Specific chemical reagents are not required for this test method. However, chemical modification such as pH adjustment,addition of trace solutes, and the addition of dissolved carbon dioxide may be applicable under certain circumstances. Un
43、lessotherwise indicated, it is intended that all reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Committee on Analytical Reagentsof the American Chemical Society, where such specifications are available.3 Other grades may be used, provided it is firstascertained that the reagent is of sufficient
44、ly high purity to permit its use without lessening the accuracy of the determination.8. Procedure8.1 Start Up:8.1.1 Ensure that the tank and reagent feed reservoirs are sufficiently full, with adequate feed water rate to accommodate anylosses of water caused by the positioning of the various drain v
45、alves. Control valves to the CEDI device should be closed and thedevice should be unpowered.8.1.2 Turn on the recirculation pump and then slowly open the feed water throttling valves and various valves and recirculationdevices on the CEDI device until the device is operating at nominal or supplier r
46、ecommended flow conditions. Modify throttlingvalves to adjust inlet and outlet pressures of the various device streams in accordance with supplier recommendations.8.1.3 Operate the system with no DC power applied for a sufficient time to ensure adequate removal of any residual air fromthe piping and
47、 device. During this time, flows, pressures, feed solute concentrations, and temperature, should be adjusted until adesirable steady state device feed water condition has been attained.8.2 Electrical Property and Deionization Performance Measurements:8.2.1 Turn on the DC power supply to the CEDI dev
48、ice, beginning at a low voltage. Raise the applied DC voltage until DCamperage between electrode pairs attains a pre-determined electrical current efficiency, typically below 20 %, but do not apply avoltage or amperage that exceeds suppliers recommendations (consult supplier for recommended values).
