Ion exchange resin family

CHEL

Chelating Resin

Chelating resin is used when selectivity matters. YQ1-520H supports multi-ion capture, while BYCLE-80CK adsorbs more than 80 percent of K+ for potassium recovery from desalinated seawater.

Selection guidance

Where this family fits best.

Best for

  • Heavy metal removal
  • Resource recovery
  • RO protection and polishing

Review carefully for

  • Bulk softening where SAC/WAC are more economical
  • Streams without confirmed target ions
