What does everyone do with their spent DI resin? I have charged a little bit myself and I'm looking to get some more so I can charge more resin in a larger quantity so it is more worth my time. If you are going to just throw spent DI resin in the trash I can take it off your hands. I am willing to return the resin with a small fee attached or just return a smaller quantity than received. I don't know what the cost will be just yet or what the exchange rate will be. I am just getting a feeler for the amount of people interested or how much spent resin is readily available. |

To me it doesn't make economic sense to use DI when the advantage is only an additional 1-5 ppm for a heck of a lot more money. We have organisms living in our systems that eat up that 1-5 ppm in the blink of an eye. The idea of recharging does make a lot of sense if it's cost effective.
