ABSTRACT:
The invention is concerned with the improved compositions for the treatment and regeneration of ion exchange resin beds typically used in water softening systems for domestic or industrial applications. The compositions of the invention include those designed for addition to sodium chloride to yield a final regenerating medium for exchange resins, along with finished compositions including a preponderant proportion of sodium chloride. In pertinent part, the compositions of the invention include respective quantitites of citric acid and a salt of citric acid such as sodium or potassium citrate. In particularly preferred form, the compositions include a minor amount of an anti-caking agent selected from the group consisting of alkyl substituted napthalene sulfonates. The compositions in accordance with the invention are characterized by relatively low pH levels and the ability to minimize the oxidation of ferrous iron to the insoluble ferric form.
