LANXESS has now released a new version of its LewaPlus design software with a significantly expanded range of functions. The calculation tool, which enables the dimensioning of ion exchange systems including individual process configurations, has been updated with improvements and additions in the modules for mixed-bed calculation, condensate polishing, and the design of polishing stages in food and beverage production. The software also enables users to check the efficiency of existing systems and identify potential savings in operating costs.
Dr. Nadja Hermsdorf, Technical Marketing Manager in the Liquid Purification Technologies (LPT) business unit at LANXESS, explained: “We often find that the capacity of the ion exchange resin units to be better utilized and that there is also potential for optimization in terms of water and chemical consumption. With LewaPlus, we provide a powerful tool for determining such operating parameters in advance or retrospectively using simulation. After all, sustainability considerations and data are becoming increasingly important for our customers in order to reduce operating costs.”
