EDI Water System
Continuous Production of High Purity and Ultrapure Water
An EDI water system (Electrodeionization) is an advanced water purification solution that removes dissolved ions from water using electric current, ion exchange membranes, and resin.
EDI systems are widely used to produce high purity and ultrapure water without chemical regeneration.
What Is an EDI Water System?
An EDI water system combines ion exchange technology and membrane separation with electrical regeneration, allowing continuous deionized water production.
Unlike traditional mixed bed systems, EDI does not require acid or alkali regeneration, making it safer and more environmentally friendly.

How an EDI Water System Works
-
RO-treated water enters the EDI module
-
Dissolved ions are attracted by an electric field
-
Ions pass through selective ion exchange membranes
-
Concentrated ions are discharged
-
High purity water is continuously produced
