Birchwood Technologies’ ION EXCHANGE System purifies rinse water for reuse in metal finishing systems. It is ideal for process lines utilizing room-temperature blackeners, zinc phosphate, manganese phosphate and other metal finishing processes.
The system allows the user to operate a metal finishing process line as a zero-discharge rinse water system. No water enters the drain, so there is no need for a rinse water discharge permit. Providing significant benefits in locations with water restrictions, it is also an ideal option for manufacturers on a septic system or where the process line must be installed in a warehouse area without convenient access to water and drain facilities.
