Filtration Technology was selected to design, build and install a 650 m3/day demineralisation plant to supply high quality water to the new ED4 milk powder plant boiler at Edendale, Southland.
The Amberpack® design uses Rohm & Haas Amberjet® resin to remove Calcium, Iron and Silica from the feed water which would cause scaling in the boiler. This enables the boiler to operate more efficiently. The resins are regenerated daily with hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide to maintain resin in optimum operating condition. The plant is fully automatic with a central PLC and SCADA system allowing operators to view real time plant operation.
