Abstract
Disclosed is an improved method of operating a sodium chlorate crystal production system where a brine stream is electrolyzed to form sodium chlorate, the sodium chlorate is crystallized in a crystallizer, and the mother liquor from a crystallizer is recycled to the brine stream. The improvement comprises passing the mother liquor through a cationic chelating ion exchange column before it is returned to the brine stream, and operating the ion exchange column so that it removes, on the average, only the amount of calcium that enters the system in the brine stream.
