OPERATING AN APPARATUS FOR REMOVAL OF IONS WITH WARM AND COLD WATER

摘要

The invention relates to a method of operating an apparatus for removal of ions provided with a capacitor. The method comprising during an ion removal mode allowing warm water to flow in between a first and a second electrode of the capacitor;creating an electrical potential difference between the first and second electrode with a power converter charging the capacitor; and, removing ions from the warm water by attracting the ions to the first and second electrode. During a regeneration mode: allowing relatively cold water to flow in between the first and the second electrode of the capacitor; de-charging the capacitor; and, releasing ions from the electrodes in the cold water in between the electrodes.
