Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a method of regenerating an ion exchange material loaded with chromate ions and nitrate ions in an ion exchange column, the method comprising subjecting the loaded ion exchange column to a regeneration sequence comprising the following steps: (i) passing a first salt solution through the column forming a first effluent solution; (ii) passing a second salt solution through the column to at least partially remove the chromate ions from the column forming a second effluent solution, wherein the second salt solution has a higher salt concentration than the first salt solution; (iii) passing a third salt solution through the column to at least partially remove nitrate ions from the column forming a third effluent solution, wherein the third salt solution has a salt concentration higher than the second salt solution.
