Abstract

An on-demand system for intermittent high purity water production which by locating a storage tank for pre-polished water just prior to a final high purity polishing device reduces the potential for stagnant water in the system to reduce or degrade product high purity water quality and reduces the actual degradation of high purity water quality. Pre-polished water is preferably produced by reverse osmosis. Final polished water is produced by continuous electrodeionization.

Claims (22)

1 . An on-demand system for intermittent high purity water production, said water having the potential for stagnant water quality deterioration reduced by locating a storage tank for pre-polished water just prior to a final high purity polishing device.

2 . The system of claim 1 wherein the pre-polished water is produced by a pressurized water treatment system comprising at least one reverse osmosis module.

3 . The system of claim 2 wherein the reverse osmosis system produces water having feed water ionic content reduced by at least 90 percent.

4 . The system of claim 2 wherein the reverse osmosis system produces water having feed water TOC reduced by at least 90 percent.

5 . The system of claim 1 wherein the polishing device comprises at least one continuous electrodeionization module.

6 . The system of claim 1 wherein the storage tank is a pressurized tank.

7 . The system of claim 1 wherein the pre-polished water is produced by a pressurized water treatment system comprising at least one reverse osmosis module and the polishing device comprises at least one continuous electrodeionization module.

8 . The system of claim 7 wherein the storage tank is a pressurized tank

9 . An on-demand system for intermittent high purity water production having reduced stagnant water quality deterioration effected by locating a storage tank for pre-polished water just prior to a final high purity polishing device.

10 . The system of claim 9 wherein the pre-polished water is produced by a pressurized water treatment system comprising at least one reverse osmosis module.

11 . The system of claim 10 wherein the reverse osmosis system produces water having feed water ionic content reduced by at least 90 percent.

12 . The system of claim 10 wherein the reverse osmosis system produces water having feed water TOC reduced by at least 90 percent.

13 . The system of claim 9 wherein the polishing device comprises at least one continuous electrodeionization module.

14 . The system of claim 9 wherein the storage tank is a pressurized tank.

15 . The system of claim 9 wherein the pre-polished water is produced by a pressurized water treatment system comprising at least one reverse osmosis module and the polishing device comprises at least one continuous electrodeionization module.

16 . The system of claim 15 wherein the storage tank is a pressurized tank

17 . A system for intermittent supply of high purity water that provides high purity water on demand, wherein said system comprises, in sequence:

a water treatment component;

a storage tank fluidly connected to said water treatment component; and

a continuous electrodeionization component fluidly connected to said storage tank.

18 . The system of claim 17 wherein the water treatment comprises a pressurized water treatment system having at least one reverse osmosis membrane module.

19 . The system of claim 17 wherein the storage tank is a pressurized tank.
