What is
Demineralized water
Demiwater, also known as demineralized water, is water from which minerals such as salts and ions have been removed. It is commonly used in laboratories and industries where pure water is required for specific applications.
How does it work?
Demineralized water
Demineralized water, also known as demiwater, is water from which almost all dissolved salts and minerals have been removed. At Remon, we treat source, tap, or surface water using reverse osmosis. The goal is to significantly reduce the electrical conductivity of the water, making it suitable for applications that require pure water. It is also possible to treat demiwater using ion exchangers filled with resin; however, this method is less sustainable and more costly in the medium to long term.
Unlike drinking water, demiwater contains virtually no calcium, magnesium, sodium, or other minerals naturally present in water sources. Therefore, it is not suitable for consumption but is ideal for technical processes where minerals could cause damage.
Demiwater helps prevent limescale, corrosion, and blockages in equipment, ensuring reliable and efficient operation of installations. The quality of demiwater is determined, among other factors, by its conductivity (expressed in microsiemens per centimeter) and the absence of specific ions.
The use of demiwater depends heavily on the requirements of the process or system in which it is applied. For this reason, Remon works with you in advance to determine the necessary water quality for optimal results.
Frequently requested types of water
Pure demiwater with very
low conductivity
Demiwater is used in applications where high water purity is essential. Examples include the pharmaceutical industry, electronics, chemical production, food processing, laboratories, and hospitals. In these sectors, even small amounts of dissolved substances can cause malfunctions, contamination, or unwanted reactions. Therefore, demiwater is crucial for rinsing processes, product preparation, and analytical work.
Unlike regular tap water, demiwater contains almost no dissolved minerals or salts. Tap water typically has a conductivity between 300 and 800 μS/cm, depending on the region. Demiwater, on the other hand, has a much lower conductivity, indicating significantly higher purity.
Remon Waterbehandeling produces demiwater with very low conductivity (approximately 0.01 to 1.0 μS/cm). This level of purity easily meets the strictest standards in the industries mentioned. Due to its low conductivity, the water is ideally suited for applications where purity is critical, such as cleaning medical equipment, rinsing circuit boards, or manufacturing pharmaceutical products.
