Ion exchange resins
IDRECO history in production of high quality powdered exchange resins goes back to 1975.
Then, in 1986, IDRECO USA acquired all assets of the Delaval Filtration Division in Florence NJ – USA. Many of the units on line in the United States are the product and design of this Delaval division and we have been regularly involved with these plants. IDRECO USA acquired all the patents, drawings, design/engineering, bill of materials for over 150 precoat “systems” incorporating more than 400 precoat vessels throughout the world for both Nuclear and Fossil plants and covering the various technologies (Condensate Polishing, Reactor Water Clean-up, Fuel Pool, Drains, etc.). The Delaval Engineering group was integrated into the IDRECO USA corporation and we continue to provide upgrades and service to these plants. IDRECO USA has supplied numerous new plants and numerous system upgrades. IDRECO USA supplied the largest deep bed whole bead resin system in the USA, in the last 10 years, incorporating over 1.000.000 USD of Uniform Particle Size resin and consistently achieving less than 1.0 ppb Na as NA.
We know we have a superior product to offer to our Customers and our resins have always been appreciated without technical or commercial issues.
