    Chloride cycle dealkalizers operate similar to sodium cycle cation water softeners. Like water softeners, dealkalizers contain ion-exchange resins that are regenerated with a concentrated salt solution - NaCl. In the case of a water softener, the cation exchange resin is exchanging sodium (the Na + ion of NaCl) for hardness minerals such as ...

  9. Sewerage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sewerage

In certain areas it has resulted in a significant lowering of the water table.
