摘要： A brine tank (100), a method to provide brine for regenerating an ion-exchange material and a water softening method are described. The brine tank (100) comprises a first compartment or top area (103) containing a solid salt, a second compartment or bottom area (102) for storing brine, and a separation element (101) between the two compartments. The separation element (101) contains openings which allow water and brine to pass therethrough but prevent passage of the solid salt. The brine tank further comprises an inlet (105) to feed water into the tank, an outlet (105) to discharge brine from the tank, and a water level control device (not shown) and/or at least one volume meter configured to measure the volume of brine discharged from the tank and/or the volume of water fed into the tank. The water level control device and/or the at least one volume meter are configured to adjust a water level in the tank that allows a portion of the salt contained in the first compartment to be in contact with water fed into the tank such that salt is caused to dissolve in the water and form brine. The first compartment, the second compartment and the separation element are arranged such that the brine formed in the first compartment (103) is able to sink through the openings of the separation element (101) into the second compartment (102). The second compartment is connected to the first compartment by a return line (106) through which brine is to be transferred from the second compartment (102) into the first compartment (103), thereby establishing a brine circulation that results in a much faster dissolution of solid salt in the first compartment. In addition to this, it is possible to chlorinate the brine with the help of an electrolyzer cell (107) positioned in the return line (106). The described water softening method comprises a regeneration step in which the brine generated in the brine tank is used.

摘要翻译： 卤水罐（100）中，一种方法为在离子交换材料和水软化方法再生描述提供盐水。 卤水罐（100）包括：第一隔室或顶部区域（103）含有固体盐，第二隔室或底部区域（102），用于存储盐水洗涤，并在两个隔室之间的分隔元件（101）。 所述分离元件（101）包含开口，这些开口允许水和盐水洗涤，以通过那里通过，但是防止所述固体盐的通道。 卤水罐还包括在入口（105）进料至水成出口（105）的槽，以从罐排出盐水，和水位控制装置（未示出）和/或至少一个体积计被配置为测量 盐水的体积从所述罐和/或水供给到罐中的容积中排出。 水位控制装置和/或所述至少一个体积计被配置为调整在水箱中的水位并允许包含在第一隔室中的盐的一部分以与供给到水箱水接触检查确实盐 造成水分，同时形成盐水溶解。 第一隔室，第二隔室和分离元件正在寻求布置的确在第一隔室（103）所形成的盐水可以通过分离元件（101）的开口部下沉到第二隔室（102）。 所述第二隔室由返回管线（106），通过该盐水是从所述第二隔室（102）到第一隔室（103）转入，由此建立盐水循环确实在快得多的溶出结果连接到第一隔室 在第一隔室的固体盐。 除此之外，有可能与在回流管路（106）定位在电解电池（107）的帮助下，以氯化该盐水。 所描述的水软化方法包括再生步骤，其中使用在盐水箱中产生的盐水洗涤。
