Lewatit® MonoPlus S 108 KR is a strongly acidic, gel-type cation exchange resin with beads of a uniform size (monodisperse), in highly regenerated form (min 99% H) and purified (extremely low content of desorbable chloride ions) to meet nuclear industry specifications. Lewatit nuclear resins (Lewatit KR) are noted for their outstanding mechanical and chemical stability and their high osmotic stability. The high total capacity results in high operation capacities with a very low ionic leakage and a very high regenerant utilization. Because of their excellent hydrodynamic properties, Lewatit KR resins allow particularly high flow rates. The extremely high monodispersity [uniformity coefficient: 1.05 (+/- 0.05)] and very low fines content of max 0.1% (<0.4 mm) results in particularly low pressure losses paired with standard resins. Used in radioactive water circuits, they provide a number of special tasks and guarantee a water quality that fully complies with the requirement of the nuclear power industry. Lewatit MonoPlus S 108 KR is especially suitable for:- the removal of cations, including radioactive isotopes, from aqueous solutions (pH control through adsorption of excess)
- the decontamination of circuits in nuclear reactor plants
- the removal of radioactive cations such as cesium 137 (fuel cooling)
- the treatment of primary coolant e.g. in pressure water reactors
- the purification of steam generator blowdown irrespective of the conditioning with Levoxin (hydrazine), ethanolamine or morpholine
- the removal of activated cleavage or corrosion products, including mechanical filtration of suspended impurities
- the polishing in the primary and secondary sections as a mixed bed component with Lewatit MonoPlus M 800 KR or Lewatit MonoPlus MP 800 OH.
Important! Rinse carefully with demineralized water prior to service or mixing with Lewatit MonoPlus M 800 KR or Lewatit MonoPlus MP 800 OHInformation provided by Lanxess. |
