Strong acid cation resin is used for water softening in the Na cycle and for demineralization when the temporary hardness in the feed is < 40%. For small plants and with HCl as regenerant, a strong acid cation also offers a simple effective solution on waters with > 40% temporary hardness. DOWEX™ MARATHON™ C resin is the resin of choice for most applications, DOWEX UPCORE™ Mono C-600 resin is an ideal choice for UPCORE system plants.
