THE USE ION EXCHANGER FOR THE REMOVAL OF CALCIUM, SULPHATE AND METALS FROM ACID MINE WATERS AND OTHER EFFLUENTS

摘要

The development of the GYP-CIX, and GYP-SOFT and the GYP-MET process technology will hopefully provide additional desalination tools in order to assist in a cost efficient way to solve the ever increasing problem of pollution of the environment as well as allow the additional supply of otherwise polluted water to areas which are not blessed with an abundance of useable wager. The generation of gypsum as a waste product for use to the gypsum industries as well as the use of the low cost chemicals may result in the move from water treatment being an environmental money sink to a revenue producing enterprise. The availability of a mobile GYP-CIX Demonstration Plant with a meaningful capacity allows to evaluate the GYP-CIX process, the GYP-SOFT and the GYP-MET process on a client's site. This will assist significantly in evaluating and optimisings the most effective solution to a pollution problem.
