Technical and economical aspects were evaluated to determine whether RO/EDI system is feasible to replace existing ion exchange bed. The EDI module used in this study was all filled electrodeionization type with mixed bed ion exchange filler. All product quality of demin water produced by RO/EDI during bench scale test shows good water quality (conductivity: 0.3-0.4μs/cm; pH: around 6.3; silica: 0.00-0.01ppm; and Na: <0.003ppm), even better than existing demin water system specification (conductivity: <5μs/cm; pH: 6.5-8.5; silica: <0.12ppm; and Na: <0.3ppm), except pH. Dissolved CO2 in water (HCO3-) is a suspected substance which is present in RO/EDI product water that influences the pH. The specific water cost of RO/EDI was US$0.53/m3 lower than existing ion exchange beds, US$0.66/m3. The main operating costs were membrane replacement and electricity cost. Long term performance of the RO/EDI system showed stable and high product quality even during periods when the feed solution has relatively high conductivity. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="Author keywords" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text]Bench-scale test,Boiler feed water,Economical aspects,Electricity costs,Electro-deionization,Feed solution,High conductivity,High pressure,Ion-exchange beds,Long term performance,Mixed beds,Product quality,Ultra pure water,Water costs,Water system[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="Indexed keywords" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text]Boiler feed water,Electrodeionization,High pressure boiler,Ultra pure water[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="Funding details" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="DOI" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1016/j.desal.2013.01.008[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
