LEWATIT® A 8073

Lewatit® A 8073 is a medium basic (bifunctional), gelular anion exchange resin based on an acryl-divinylbenzene copolymer of special bead size distribution.

Due to its acrylic structure Lewatit® A 8073 stands for effective adsorption and desorption of naturally occuring organic substances (high resistance to organic fouling). Its very high total capacity and outstanding mechanical stability together with the excellent resistance to osmotic shock makes it unique for demineralization of water with a relatively high content of Free Mineral Acidity (FMA) and moderate ratio of weakly dissociated ions (SiO2, CO2).

Lewatit® A 8073 is especially suitable for the following applications:

• Demineralization of water for industrial steam generation operated with co-current or modern counter-current systems like e.g. Lewatit® WS System, Lewatit® Liftbed System or Lewatit® Rinsebed System

• Removal of organic matter, especially from surface water

• Arrangements with decarbonator for demineralization plants

• Arrangements without a weakly dissociated anion exchanger for demineralization plants
