Alternatives have been considered by SW. A procurement procedure was started for this project in and subsequently cancelled in 2017 due to lack of bidders in the market. There since has been further IEX systems identified which SW are exploring for other SR21 projects. This is a new process for SW which will rely on support from IXOM & at this stage we are required to use their resin.
