HEED® Flow Configurations
The patents-pending HEED® split cell design can be
operated in parallel as a roughing demineralizer or operated
in series allowing for single pass continuous flow. When
operated in the series mode, the HEED® design permits
separate voltage control when a higher purity fluid is
desired. Separate anodes and cathodes provide electrical
energy to the parallel sets of first cells and second cells.
Separate rectifiers can be used to apply specific electric
potential across the first set of cells and second cells when
operated in series, or a single rectifier can power both the
first and second cells when operated in parallel.
In short, the unique HEED® design incorporates the
benefits of hydraulic and electrical staging without the
inherent clamping complexity and expense of commercial
electrodialysis systems. HEED® is the only commercially
available design that permits simultaneous demineralization
of two separate streams.

configurations.
