Herein, nitrogen-doped tin oxide intercalated activated carbon nanocomposite (N-AC/SnO2) were prepared using hydrothermal strategy and explored as an electrode for capacitive desalination and disinfection. Although tin oxide (SnO2) has good characteristics, the nitrogen must be carefully considered for modifying the characteristics of the carbonaceous materials to improve the performance as an electrode in the CDI process. The characterization of the proposed materials which investigated by XRD, TEM, FESEM, XPS and FT-IR affirmed the formation of the nanocomposite. The electrosorption behavior investigated by electrochemical techniques demonstrates that, compared to the specific capacitance of the AC and AC/SnO2 (207.46 F g(-1) and 233.21 F g(-1)), that of the N-AC/SnO2 is higher at 408.8 F g(-1), and N-AC/ SnO2 exhibits better electrical conductivity. The CDI performance evaluated by batch mode experiments through an applied voltage of 1.2 V in a 50 mg L-1 NaCl aqueous solution shows that the N-AC/SnO2 electrode introduces a higher electrosorptive capacity of 3.42 mg g(-1), an enhanced desalination efficiency of 61.13%, and good antibacterial performance. Overall, the present study demonstrates that N-AC/ SnO2 has considerable potential as an electrode material for CDI application. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
