2. Introduction
 Operating for more than a decade now, Agape Water
Solutions, has as its business cornerstone its expertise in
electrodeionization. The founder of Agape Water Solutions is
a global authority on this technology.
The water treatment process called electrodeionization, or
EDI, also goes by two other names, continuous deionization
(CDI) and continuous electro deionization (CEDI). EDI usually
comes after reverse osmosis as a polishing treatment. With
the use of direct current electricity, there is continuous
removal of ionizable aqueous species (or impurities) including
silica, boron, ammonia and carbon dioxide, from the water
source and simultaneously regenerate resin with no
chemicals. This technological process also removes residual
salts and produces what is known in the industry as ultrapure
water.

 As such, EDI boasts efficiencies and environment-
friendly characteristics. An EDI system can
achieve 99+ percent water recovery in some
applications. Since it only uses electricity there is
no need to involve hazardous chemicals.
Consequently, there is also no need to store and
handle these chemicals as is required if another
water treatment technology is used.
With climate change and its negative effects on
the water supply, the need for an efficient and
environment-friendly water treatment technology
that can meet stringent purity requirements, such
as EDI, is becoming more apparent.
