Summary:EQ -algebras were introduced by Novak ( 2006 ) as an algebraic structure of truth values for fuzzy-type theory (FFT). Novák and De Baets ( 2009 ) introduced various kinds of EQ -algebras such as good, residuated, and IEQ -algebras. In this paper, we define the notion of (pre)ideal in bounded EQ -algebras ( BEQ -algebras) and investigate some properties. Then, we introduce a congruence relation on good BEQ -algebras by using ideals, and then, we solve an open problem in Paad ( 2019 ). Moreover, we show that in IEQ -algebras, there is a one-to-one correspondence between congruence relations and the set of ideals. In the following, we characterize the generated preideal in BEQ -algebras, and by using this, we prove that the family of all preideals of a BEQ -algebra is a complete lattice. Then, we show that the family of all preideals of a prelinear IEQ -algebras is a distributive lattice and becomes a Heyting algebra. Finally, we show that we can construct an MV -algebra from the family of all preideals of a prelinear IEQ -algebra.
