The most common degassers are of the so-called forced draft or atmospheric type. One is represented below: Air out From cation Dispersi exchanger >t} tie Degasser tower To anion ‘exchanger Degassed water sump Degassed water pump A forced draft degasifier Principle and details After cation exchange, the bicarbonate and carbonate (if any) ions are converted to carbonic acid, or carbon dioxide. CO is soluble in water (see graph below), but it tends to escape into the air, much as it does in a glass of Coca-Cola when you stir it. Using a degasser to remove CO2 reduces the ionic load on the strong base anion resin, and the consumption of caustic sada is thus lower. To be effective, the degasifier must be placed after the cation exchange column. Before cation exchange, the water is containing bicarbonate. After it, the cations in water (Ca*t, Mg** and Nat principally) are converted to H* fons, which combine with the HCOs~ bicarbonate anions to produce carbonic acid. The reaction details are shown in the page about processes, under demineralisation.. In practice, the water coming out of the cation exchange unit is introduced into a column where it is sprinkled over a bed of filling material, often polypropylene shaped as saddles to leave a maximum volume of voids in the bed. Air is introduced at the bottom of the column by a blower, and escapes at the top, loaded with carbon dioxide from the water. hitpdardel infoXprocessesidogasser hint 12 rete Degasifer The solubility of CO> in pure water is high: about 1.5 g/L or more than 30 meq/L at 25°C and atmospheric pressure (see graph). When you stir the water and divide it into small droplets in an atmospheric degasifier and blow air through the "rain", the gas tends to move into the air because the partial pressure of CO2 in air is much below the equilibrium pressure. The residual COz after an atmospheric degasifier is 0.20 to 0.25 meq/L (typically 10 mg/L as CO2. Therefore such degassers are used when the bicarbonate concentration plus free carbon dioxide in the feed water to separate column demineralisation systems is at least 0.6 to 0.8 meq/L. The forced draft degasifiers are the most common in industrial water treatment, although there are other types of degasifiers, e.g. + Thermal degassers, allowing to strip oxygen as well as carbon dioxide, + Vacuum degassers, operating under a vacuum of 1 to 5 kPa for the removal of oxygen ‘+ Membrane degassers, interesting in view of their small size, For RO permeates with low pH and high free CO2 and for small demineralisation systems, membrane degasifiers can be used: facuum phase] (J lwith removed gas A Liguicel® membrane degasifier © Francois de Dardel 2011 4 [Ad by Priescchopp | Cbse hitpdardel infoXprocessesidogasser hint 22
