  • Method for decanting preconditioned ion-exchange resin suspensions
    Patent number: 8133928
    Abstract: A process for the storage or transportation of pretreated, conditioned ion exchangers as catalysts for chemical reactions is disclosed. The preconditioned ion-exchange resin is kept as preconditioned ion-exchange resin suspension in a storage or transporting container. The container with the preconditioned ion-exchange resin suspension is transported to either a storage site for storage or to a reactor for transfer of the resin to the reactor.
    Type: Grant
