文摘

Capacitive neutralization deionization with flow electrodes (FCND) was proposed by combining neutralization dialysis (ND) and flow-electrode capacitive deionization (FCDI). Its key property is that by employing flow electrodes, capacitive adsorption of salt ions occurs simultaneously during the neutralization dialysis process. To compare the desalination performance between FCND and FCDI, a series of experiments were conducted by changing salt concentration and applied electrical voltage. The hybrid exhibits a promising average salt adsorption rate (ASAR) and salt removal efficiency (SRE) compared to either ND or FCDI process. The ASAR and SRE of FCND are 203.27 mmol m⁻² min⁻¹ and 72.20% in 0.1 mM NaCl solution at 1.2 V after 120 min, whereas the values of FCDI are 120.86 mmol m⁻² min⁻¹ and 42.92%, respectively. In order to facilitate the understanding of the ion transportation in this complex system, a theory was also set up based on simplified Nernst-Planck equation and Donnan equilibrium, which helps to understand the experimental data.
