Abstract Thermal-based Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) process has been used for managing industrial brine. However, conventional thermal ZLD process is very energy intensive. In …
The recently developed modified Donnan (mD) model provides a simple and useful description of the electrical double layer in microporous carbon electrodes, suitable for …
Capacitive technologies, such as capacitive deionization and energy harvesting based on mixing energy (“capmix” and “CO2 energy”), are characterized by intermittent operation …
Capacitive deionization (CDI) is an emerging water desalination technology in which pairs of porous electrodes are electrically charged to remove ionic species from water. In this …
Commercially available activated carbon cloth electrodes are treated using nitric acid and ethylenediamine solutions, resulting in chemical surface charge enhanced carbon …
Capacitive deionization (CDI) is an electrochemical method for water desalination using porous carbon electrodes. A key parameter in CDI is the charge efficiency, Λ, which is the …
We report our studies to compare energy consumption of a CDI cell in constant voltage (CV) and constant current (CC) operations, with a focus on understanding the underlying physics …
Capacitive deionization (CDI) is an electrochemically controlled desalination technology based on applying a non-faradaic process in the electrical double layer region. Because …
Abstract An operational scale Membrane Capacitive Deionization (MCDI) desalination system was trialled for water reuse applications in Western NSW, Australia. The 6 electrode …
