Deionization is a purification process that uses ion-exchange resins to remove positively and negatively charged ions from water.
-
The resultis highly purified water with an extremely low concentration of dissolved solids.
-
Key difference from distilled water:While deionized water removes ions, distilled water removes contaminants through boiling and recondensing. Deionization is more effective at removing charged particles, while distillation removes all impurities regardless of charge.
-
Applications:DI water is essential in industries like pharmaceuticals, electronics manufacturing, and laboratories because of its purity.
