MIEX® Technology Ixom Watercare is a leading global supplier of Ion Exchange treatment solutions. Our unique MIEX® and MICo® pre-treatment processes have the ability to reduce Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC), and other constituents from water, resulting in reduction in the formation of Disinfection By-products (DBPs), and conformance to regulatory goals, in your municipal drinking water treatment plant. The MIEX® process is a proven solution to decrease Disinfection By-Product formation by reducing DOC levels and total oxidant demand while lowering total net operational costs. MIEX® has many additional benefits including improved taste and odor and improved floc formation with lower chemical doses. The MIEX® process can also be used to significantly reduce treated water color levels from 60% to 95% through the removal of DOC. Reduction of organics at the head of a water treatment plant is critical to lowering operational costs and improving plant performance. The name MIEX® comes from ‘Magnetic Ion Exchange’. MIEX® Resin beads have a magnetic property that allows them to agglomerate and settle rapidly, or fluidize at high hydraulic loading rates. Because of this unique feature, MIEX® Resin is used in a continuous process with ion exchange occurring in either a mixed tank or a fluidized bed reactor vessel. MICo® stands for MIEX® co-removal, which is a MIEX® treatment process that combines multiple treatment objectives in one process. This process uses the MIEX® Plus media blend to reduce DOC as well as other constituents of concern such as hardness (MICo® SOF) or taste and odor (MICo® T&O). By combining two processes into one, clients save money and space. MIEX® and MICo® Treatment Systems have a small process footprint, low headloss, very low waste volumes and are not subject to chromatographic peaking, allowing ion exchange to be used in a wide variety of applications. In addition, MIEX® resin is tolerant of most oxidants, turbidity, and heavy metals.
Our Applications MIEX® and MICo® processes provide water treatment solutions for municipal drinking water treatment applications. Applications for MIEX® and MICo® treatment include: Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC) Reduction Color Reduction Hardness and Organics Reduction Organics and Taste and Odor Reduction Sulfide Reduction Bromide Reduction Organics and Ammonia Reduction
