Para que el intercambio iónico resulte económico en el tratamiento avanzado de aguas residuales, convendrá utilizar productos regeneradores y restauradores que eliminen tanto los aniones inorgánicos como el material orgánico de la resina agotada. Los restauradores físicos y químicos, cuya aplicación en la separación de materias orgánicas de resina se ha realizado con éxito, son hidróxido de sodio, ácido clorhídrico, metanol y bentonita. 1, record 3, Spanish, - resina%20de%20intercambio%20ani%C3%B3nico

In 1979, William Bauman at Dow Chemical Company suggested a way to remove the background eluent using a second ion exchange column, and thus permit detection of analyte ions with a highly sensitive conductivity detector (micromhos). This second column is called the suppressor column. For anion analysis, this is a cation exchange column in the acid form; and for cation analysis, it is an anion exchange column in the base form. 1, record 5, English, - anion%20exchange%20column
