"ISEP® Continuous Ionic Separations / CSEP® Continuous Chromatographic Separation"
The Engineered Solutions group at Calgon Carbon offers multiple process technologies combined with separation equipment. Since 1990, many manufacturers and industries have discovered the exceptional value of Calgon Carbon's ISEP® /CSEP® equipment technology for separating,recovering, purifying and synthesizing materials. With over 300 installations in more than 40 applications,ISEP® /CSEP® continues to prove itself capable of economically solving complex processing problems. The Pharmaceutical industry has also discovered the added value of this equipment to process intermediates utilizing the valve in cGMP processes to produce drugs.

Technology Benefits:
For any adsorption/desorption application,the Continuous Separator has the flexibility to achieve the following:
  • Substantial reduction in sorbent inventory - Reductions of 30%to 90% are possible as compared to conventional fixed bed or pulsed bed systems.

  • Reduced regenerant (eluent) and water usage - Eluent-to-resin volume ratios of less than one are achieved due to counter-current flow.

  • High product concentration - Low eluent and water usage translate into less dilution.
  • High recovery - Use of counter--current flows and recycling can provide essentially complete recovery.

  • Steady state/continuous operation - There is no interruption of feed or regenerant stream flows and effluent streams are consistent in composition.

  • Simple operation &control - No complex valve nest are used.Only two moving parts in entire system (distributor and turntable) with a rotation rate of .01 to 1 revolution per hour.

  • Flexibility - The system allows for a number of user functions to be simultaneously achieved within a dynamic process stream under continuous operating conditions.

  • Capital and operating cost reduction - Overall capital cost reduction of 30%to 50%,and operating cost reduction of 40%to 50% as compared to con- ventional fixed bed or pulsed bed systems.

  • Good tolerance for suspended solids - Processes with high suspended solids can be entertained with more frequent backwash intervals.
