Water desalination by capacitive deionization (CDI) is performed via electrochemical cells consisting of two porous carbon electrodes. Upon transferring charge from one electrode to the other, ions are removed from the feedwater by…
A two-scale model is presented to simulate the dynamic ion transport and adsorption processes in porous electrodes used for capacitive deionization (CDI). At the pore scale, the Stokes equation governing water flow in porous CDI electrodes…
Capacitive deionization (CDI) is a fast-emerging water desalination technology in which a small cell voltage of ~1 V across porous carbon electrodes removes salt from feedwaters via electrosorption. In flow-through electrode (FTE) CDI cell…

Capacitive deionization (CDI) is a fast-emerging technology most commonly applied to brackish water desalination. In CDI, salt ions are removed from the feedwater and stored in electric double layers (EDLs) within micropores of electrically…
Several harmful or valuable ionic species present in sea, brackish and wastewaters are amphoteric, and thus their properties depend on the local water pH. Effective removal of these species can be challenging by conventional membrane…
Transport of water through ion-exchange membranes is of importance both for electrodialysis (ED) and reverse electrodialysis (RED). In this work, we extend our previous theory [J. Membrane Sci., 510, (2016) 370-381] and include water…
In this tutorial we discuss the chemical potential of ions in water (i.e., in a salt solution, in an electrolyte phase) and inside (charged) nanoporous materials such as porous membranes. In water treatment, such membranes are often used to…
Solid-state electrolytes, by enabling lithium metal anodes, may significantly increase the energy density of current lithium-ion batteries. However, similar to their liquid counterparts, these hard and stiff electrolytes can still be…
Many industrial and agricultural applications require the treatment of water streams containing high concentrations of ionic species for closing material cycles. High concentration factors are often desired, but hard to achieve with…
Over the past decade, capacitive deionization (CDI) has realized a surge in attention in the field of water desalination and can now be considered as an important technology class, along with reverse osmosis and electrodialysis. While many…
