GE 2020 EDR Systems
Electrodialysis Reversal Technology
The GE 2020 Electrodialysis Reversal (EDR) product
is a proven and reliable desalination technology
that has been in service in a variety of industrial
and public infrastructure applications.
EDR Features
Use of Carbon Electrodes results in no gas pro-
duced and no separate electrode stream
required.
High Water Recovery, up to 94%
Salt Removal of 50 to 95%
Polarity Reversal self-cleaning with electricity
Free chlorine tolerance
Tolerance to moderate suspended solids
Adjustable product water performance without
blending
Ability to disassemble stacks for inspection
Silica tolerance
EDR Benefits
Efficient use of scarce water resources
Low pretreatment requirements and costs
Low chemical consumption costs
Long membrane life, typically 10+ years
Strong ability to recover from less than ideal
feed water quality
Standard Design and Scope of Supply
