Probing of magneto-electric induction and magnetodialysis in flow-electrode capacitive deionization cell – Brazil
One of the most prominent and highly valued characteristics of the electrically-driven flow-electrode deionization (e-FCDI) unit, such as those shown in Figs. 1(a-b), is its success in harnessing two processes: electrodialysis and continuous flowable-electrodeâs ions trapping and subsequent electrode regeneration. This has resulted in a wide range of technological applications, including desalination, energy storage, scale control, nutrient removal and recovery, pollutant management, heavy metal treatment, and water softening.
Essential components of such an e-FCDI unit are the two ion-exchange membranes (IEMs), each of which is a polymer matrix with specifically-designed pores, channels, or pathways that [âŚ]
