Abstract: The invention relates to a method and corresponding plant for the hygienic operation of an ion exchanger, in particular, in water treatment, whereby the ion exchanger is regenerated by a regenerating agent solution during a regeneration phase. According to the invention, a simultaneous disinfection effect may be achieved, whereby chlorine dioxide is generated in situ in the regenerating agent solution and run through the ion exchanger.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and a preparation for producing chlorine dioxide for disinfection purposes using a two-component system in an aqueous solution. According to the invention, the two-component system is formed by a chlorite component and a salt component. The chlorite component is composed of an alkaline earth chlorite or alkaline chlorite while the salt component is composed of an alkaline halide or alkaline earth metal halide or sulfate or nitrate and does not have an acid, oxidative, or catalytic effect on the chlorite in an aqueous solution.

Abstract: A device for the electrodeionisation of an aqueous electrolyte solution, comprising an electrodeionisation module (1), an ultrafiltration module (21, 22, 1201, 1202, 1203) and a connection piece (3, 10) which connects the electrodeionisation module (1) and the ultrafiltration module (21, 22, 1201, 1202, 1203) such as to be able to guide a diluate produced from said electrolyte solution during operation of said device in said electrodeionisation module (1) from said electrodeionisation module (1) to said ultrafiltration module (21, 22, 1201, 1202, 1203); wherein said connection piece (3, 10) comprises no adjustable pressure-maintaining valve. By means of the pressure drop occurring in the ultrafiltration modules (21, 22, 1201, 1202, 1203) these devices build up a counter pressure behind the electrodeionisation module (1) which is sufficient to ensure the packing density of the ion exchanger in the electrodeionisation module (1).
