Flow-electrode capacitive deionization (FCDI) is an electrodriven technology for desalination of brackish water. This study proposes a magnetic field-assisted FCDI system (magnetic FCDI) using magnetic activated carbon (MAC) as flow electrodes, achieving enhanced desalination performance. The magnetic field assistance significantly improves the salt removal rate and stable desalination performance, as well as enables electrode particle regeneration.
Flow-electrode capacitive deionization (FCDI) is viewed as a potential alternative to the current state-of-the-art electrodriven technology for the desalination of brackish water. However, the key shortcoming of the FCDI is still the discontinuous nature of the electrode conductive network, resulting in low electron transport efficiency and ion adsorption capacity. Here, a novel magnetic field-assisted FCDI system (termed magnetic FCDI) is proposed to enhance brackish water desalination, simply by using magnetic activated carbon (MAC) as flow electrodes. The results show that the assistance from the magnetic field enables a 78.9% - 205% enhancement in the average salt removal rate (ASRR) compared with that in the absence of a magnetic field, which benefits from the artificial manipulation of the flow electrode transport behavior. In long-term tests, the stable desalination performance of magnetic FCDI was also demonstrated with a stable ASRR of 0.70 mu mol cm(-2) min(-1) and energy-normalized removed salt (ENRS) of 8.77 mu mol J(-1). In addition, magnetic field also enables the regeneration of the electrode particles from the concentrated electrolyte. In summary, the findings indicate that the magnetic FCDI is an energy-efficient and operation convenient technology for brackish water desalination.
