Hard water introduction
When water is hard, it can clog pipes, damage boilers, heat exchangers, and many other devices.
Water softening can prevent these negative effects. Hard water causes a higher risk of lime scale
deposits in industrial, commercial and household water systems.
Due to this lime scale build-up, pipes are blocked and the efficiency of hot boilers and tanks is
reduced. This increases the cost of domestic water heating by about fifteen to twenty percent.
Another negative effect of lime scale is that it has damaging effects on commercial machinery,
such as laundry machines. Water softening using a water softener system expands the life span
of each machine. It also contributes to the improved working, and longer lifespan of solar heating
systems, air conditioning units and many other water-reliant systems.
Ion Exchange
Water softening happens through a process called ion exchange, which uses an ion exchange resin. The resin comprises of tiny polymeric beads which are specially formulated so that they can be charged with certain ions. Calcium and magnesium, the causes of scale and scum from hard water, are referred to as ions, and as water passes through the resin, the calcium and magnesium ions swap places with the sodium ions on the resin. Sodium salts, unlike calcium and magnesium, are highly soluble so sodium does not cause scale or scum. When all the sodium ions have been exchanged for calcium or magnesium, the resin must be regenerated by recharging it with sodium ions. This is done by flushing the resin with salt solution (brine).

What do water softeners do?
Industrial water softeners are specific ion exchangers that are designed to remove ions which are
positively charged. Softeners mainly remove calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) ions.
Calcium and magnesium are often referred to as “hardness minerals”. Softeners are sometimes
even applied to remove iron. The softening devices are able to remove up to five milligrams per
liter (5 mg/L) of dissolved iron and can operate automatic, semi-automatic, or manual. Each type
is rated on the amount of hardness it can remove before regeneration is necessary. Commercial
water softeners collect hardness minerals within its conditioning tank and from time to time flushes
them away to drain. When an ion exchanger is applied for water softening, it will replace the calcium
and magnesium ions in the water with other ions, for instance sodium or potassium. The exchanger
ions are added to the ion exchanger reservoir as sodium and potassium salts (NaCl and KCl).
