Frequency analysis and resonant operation for efficient capacitive deionization

Journal Article Ramachandran, Ashwin ; Hawks, Steven A. ; Stadermann, Michael ; ... - Water Research

Capacitive deionization (CDI) performance metrics can vary widely with operating methods. Conventional CDI operating methods such as constant current and constant voltage show advantages in either energy or salt removal performance, but not both. We here develop a theory around and experimentally demonstrate a new operation for CDI that uses sinusoidal forcing voltage (or sinusoidal current). We use a dynamic system modeling approach, and quantify the frequency response (amplitude and phase) of CDI effluent concentration. Using a wide range of operating conditions, we demonstrate that CDI can be modeled as a linear time invariant system. We validate this model withmore »« less

The use of carbon aerogel electrodes for environmental cleanup

Conference NONE

A process for the capacitive deionization (CDI) of water with a stack of carbon aerogel electrodes has been developed by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Earlier versions of CDI use activated carbon as electrodes. Aqueous solutions with various anions and canons are passed through a stack of carbon aerogel electrodes, each having a very high specific surface area (400 to 1100 m{sup 2}/g). After polarization, non-reducible and non-oxidizable ions are removed from the electrolyte by the imposed electric field and held in electric double layers formed at the surfaces of electrodes. As desired, the effluent from the cell is purified water.more »« less
Self similarities in desalination dynamics and performance using capacitive deionization

Journal Article Ramachandran, Ashwin ; Hemmatifar, Ali ; Hawks, Steven A. ; ... - Water Research

Charge transfer and mass transport are two underlying mechanisms which are coupled in desalination dynamics using capacitive deionization (CDI). We developed simple reduced-order models based on a mixed reactor volume principle which capture the coupled dynamics of CDI operation using closed-form semi-analytical and analytical solutions. We use the models to identify and explore self-similarities in the dynamics among flow rate, current, and voltage for CDI cell operation including both charging and discharging cycles. The similarity approach identifies the specific combination of cell (e.g. capacitance, resistance) and operational parameters (e.g. flow rate, current) which determine a unique effluent dynamic response.

Ion selectivity in capacitive deionization with functionalized electrode: Theory and experimental validation

Journal Article Oyarzun, Diego I. ; Hemmatifar, Ali ; Palko, James W. ; ... - Water Research X

Capacitive deionization (CDI) is a promising technique for salt removal and may have potential for highly selective removal of ion species. In this work, we take advantage of functional groups usually used with ionic exchange resins and apply these to CDI. To this end, we functionalize activated carbon with a quaternary amines surfactant and use this surface to selectively and passively (no applied field) trap nitrate ions. We then set the cell voltage to a constant value to regenerate these electrodes, resulting in an inverted capacitive deionization (i-CDI) operation. Unlike resins, we avoid use of concentrated chemicals for regeneration. Wemore »« less

High water recovery and improved thermodynamic efficiency for capacitive deionization using variable flowrate operation

Journal Article Ramachandran, Ashwin ; Oyarzun, Diego I. ; Hawks, Steven A. ; ... - Water Research

Water recovery is a measure of the amount of treated water produced relative to the total amount of water processed through the system, and is an important performance metric for any desalination method. Conventional operating methods for desalination using capacitive deionization (CDI) have so far limited water recovery to be about 50%. To improve water recovery for CDI, we introduce a new operating scheme based on a variable (in time) flow rate wherein a low flow rate during discharge is used to produce a brine volume which is significantly less than the volume of diluent produced. We demonstrate experimentally andmore »« less
