State whether the following is true or false.
Suspended solids must be removed before water enters an ion exchange softener.

  • A.True
  • B.False
  • C.True only at large scales
  • D.False only at small scales

Answer: A

Correct answer: True

Suspended solids foul the resin bed: they coat the beads, reducing the surface available for exchange, and they block the flow so that the bed channels and its capacity falls. Regeneration does not remove them. A sand or multimedia filter ahead of the softener is therefore standard, and it is far cheaper than replacing a fouled resin charge.
