Title: |
Use ion exchange to filter produced water |
Text: |
"Ion Exchange: In the case of produced water, the goal is to preferentially remove sodium. For that application, resins are chosen that are regenerated with hydrogen ions. As the produced water passes through the column, sodium ions are removed from the water. They replace the hydrogen on the resin's exchange sites." [See Supplemental Documents for examples in Wyoming and Montana where Ion Exchange is being used for these purposes] |

|
BMP Efficacy: |
“The backwash stream from ion exchange treatment of produced water will contain high levels of sodium. Therefore, disposal requirements for the concentrated brine should be considered when selecting ion exchange treatment technologies.†|
