Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to a process for removing oleophilic odor- and tasteproducing substances from water by treating the water with an insoluble, macroporous adsorber resin comprising a matrix based on a crosslinked organic polymer containing aromatic nuclei, the polymer containing chloromethyl groups as substituents; some of the chlorine atoms in the chlormethyl groups can be reacted with ammonia or amines, furthermore the invention relates to the adsorber resins to be used in the claimed process.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim 72 words
A process for removing oleophilic odour- and taste-producing substances from water wherein the water is treated with an insoluble macroporous adsorber resin comprising a matrix based on a crosslinked organic polymer containing aromatic nuclei substitued by substituents consisting essentially of (1) chloromethyl substituents or (2) chloromethyl substituents partially aminated by reacting some of the chlorine atoms thereof with a member selected from the group consisting of ammonia, primary amines and secondary amines.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 72 words
A process for removing oleophilic odour- and taste-producing substances from water wherein the water is treated with an insoluble macroporous adsorber resin comprising a matrix based on a crosslinked organic polymer containing aromatic nuclei substitued by substituents consisting essentially of (1) chloromethyl substituents or (2) chloromethyl substituents partially aminated by reacting some of the chlorine atoms thereof with a member selected from the group consisting of ammonia, primary amines and secondary amines.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 29 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the matrix of the adsorber resin is a copolymer of an aromatic monovinyl compound and at least one aromatic polyvinyl compound.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 21 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the matrix of the adsorber resin is a copolymer of styrene and divinylbenzene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the matrix of the adsorber resin is a copolymer of styrene and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the matrix of the adsorber resin is a copolymer of styrene and 1,3,5-diacryloylhexahydro-s-triazine.
