Abstract

The invention refers to a process and a device for the performance of a process for the treatment of liquids, particularly for the demineralization of aqueous solutions, whereby the liquid being treated is conducted through successive chambers of treatment, wherein in a first stage of the treatment demineralization takes place by means of ion displacement and in a second stage of post-treatment by means of ion desorption the salts that are removed from the treated liquids are led into so-called brine chambers, and are washed out of these chambers into a channel or other receiver by means of a transporting liquid.
