I was looking up various SeaChem products because why not, and came across HyperSorb and Renew. If they're being touted as an adsorbent like carbon....is it possible to just replace the carbon prefilter with HyperSorb/Renew in an RO/DI unit and then regenerate as necessary to minimize costs? Or am I missing something important? Is it too much work? Would you be able to pack it in like DI resin?
BRS 2.5"x10" standard cartridge Volume = 49.09 inches cubed =804 cm cubed ~= 804mL
804 mL * 75 gallons/250mL = 241.2 gallons that can be treated
BRS 75 GPD at 3:1 rejection rate = 300 gpd total (75 * 3 = 225 gallons rejected, + 75 gallons accepted)
So each cartridge would have to be replaced every (241.2 gallons/300gpd =.804 days = )19.264 hours and soaked in a bleach solution.
