It is suggested that inadequate or overaddition of deionization buffers can lead to loss of sensitivities under particular operating conditions. In the analysis of brine samples, signal enhancing and oxide/hydroxide formation inducing signal reduction resulting from overaddition of deionization buffers can be seen with varying amounts of chemical buffers. Based on experimental results, the authors have arrived at the optimized operating conditions for the detection of lithium, under which both ionization and stable compound formation can be suppressed. This is a simplified and quick method with adequate accuracy and precision for the determination of lithium in routine brine samples from chemical plants or R＆D laboratories, which contain comparable amounts of lithium with some other components.展开更多

文摘High-salinity wastewater treatment has always been a challenging issue.In this study,coal tar pitch was used as the carbon source and melamine as the nitrogen source to prepare coal tar pitch-based nanosheets(CPN-9)using a salt-template method.The desalination performance of CPN-9 was evaluated using flow-electrode capacitive deionization technology.The results showed that CPN-9 has a high specific surface area(466.34 m^(2)/g),a rich pore structure(micro-/meso-pore volume was 0.28),excellent rheological properties,and hydrophilicity(contact angle of 20.44°),thereby accelerating ion transport.Electrochemical results indicated that CPN-9 exhibits a significant double-layer ion storage mechanism,with a specific capacitance of 176.66 F/g at a current density of 0.5 A/g.CPN-9 has a very low charge transfer resistance.The synergistic effect of aromatic carbon and nitrogen doping(the content of pyrrole and pyridine nitrogen was 36.40%and 35.83%,respectively)in coal tar pitch accelerates electron transfer in CPN-9.The good ion diffusion performance and low impedance of CPN-9 accelerate the ion exchange rate,resulting in outstanding desalination performance.At 1.2 V and 3%mass loading,with a CPN-9 to conductive carbon black ratio of 4:1,the average desalination rate,charge efficiency,and energy consumption reached 0.039 mg/(cm^(2)·min),48.47%,and 0.012 kWh/mol,respectively.In summary,this study optimized the structure of CPN-9 from the perspective of electronic and ionic transport,enhancing its desalination performance and providing theoretical support for the deionization of high-salinity wastewater.

文摘Flow-electrode capacitive deionization(FCDI)is a newly developed desalination technology with a high electrode loading for superior salt removal efficiency,even with high feed salinity.However,the improvement in FCDI performance could be restricted by obstacles such as poor charge transfer in the electrode slurry and agglomeration of the electrode particles.Therefore,various FCDIelectrode materials have been studied to overcome these bottlenecks through various mechanisms.Herein,a minireview is conducted to summarize the relevant information and provide a comprehensive view of the progress in FCDI electrode materials.Flow-electrode materials can be classified into three main groups:carbon materials,metalbased materials,and carbon-metal composites.Carbonbased capacitive materials with outstanding conductivities can facilitate charge transfer in FCDI,whereas metal-based materials and carbon-metal composites with ion-intercalative behaviors exhibit high ion adsorption abilities.Additionally,carbon materials with surface function groups can enhance electrode dispersion and reach a high electrode loading by electrostatic repulsion,further upgrading the conductive network of FCDI.Moreover,magnetic carbon-metal composites can be easily separated,and the salt removal performance can be improved with magnetic fields.Different electrode materials exhibit disparate features during FCDI development.Thus,combining these materials to obtain FCDI electrodes with multiple functions may be reasonable,which could be a promising direction for FCDI research.

文摘High-performance electrode materials are critical for the development of the capacitive deionization(CDI)technology for efficient water desalination.In this study,binder-free porous carbon electrodes were successfully prepared from the fungal hyphae sheet with the formation and growth of metal-organic framework(MOF)crystals on the surface of hyphal fibers.The continuous fungal fibrous structure with abundant surface functional groups provided an ideal supporting substrate for in-situ oriented MOF growth.The MOF-fungal hyphae derived carbon(MOF-Fhy-C)exhibited an excellent property for CDI application,such as a large accessible surface area,excellent electrical conductivity,high porosity and hydrophilicity.The MOF-Fhy-C electrode achieved an outstanding CDI performance with a salt adsorption capacity of 40.8 mg g^(-1)and an average salt adsorption rate of 1.4 mg g^(-1)min-1for treating 10 mmol L^(-1)NaCl solution at a cell voltage of 1.2 V,which are considerably higher than most of carbon-based electrodes reported in the literature.This research presents an effective strategy for fabricating freestanding CDI electrodes from fungal materials with MOF for high-performance desalination.

文摘Solar-driven interface evaporation with high solar-to-steam conversion efficiency has shown great potential in seawater desalination.However,due to the influence of latent heat and condensation efficiency,the water yield from solar-driven interface evaporation remains insufficient,posing a significant challenge that requires resolution.In this work,we designed a dual-mode high-flux seawater desalination device that combines solar-driven interface evaporation and capacitive desalination.By utilizing coupled desalination materials exhibiting both photothermal conversion and capacitance activity,the device demonstrated photothermal evaporation rates of 1.41 and 0.97 kg m^(-2)h^(-1)for condensate water yield under one-sun irradiation.Additionally,the device exhibited a salt adsorption capacity of up to48 mg g^(-1)and a salt adsorption rate of 2.1 mg g^(-1)min-1.In addition,the salt adsorption capacity increased by approximately 32%under one-sun irradiation.Furthermore,photo-enhanced capacitive desalination performance was explored through numerical simulations and theoretical calculations.Theoretical calculations and characterizations confirmed that the defect energy levels formed by the introduction of sulfur vacancies can effectively widen the light absorption range,improve photothermal conversion performance,and stimulate more photoelectrons to participate in capacitive desalination.Concurrently,the electron distribution state of molybdenum disulfide with sulfur vacancies and surface defect sites contributes to ion/electron transport at the solid-liquid interface.This work provides a novel pathway for integrating solar vapor generation with other low-energy desalination technologies.

文摘Since conventional photocatalytic technology fails to achieve complete elimination of chlorophenol contaminants from aqueous environments,this study presents a synergistic photocatalysis-capacitive deionization(PC-CDI)system as an advanced solution for industrial chlorophenol wastewater remediation.The PC-CDI system,employing boron nitride/carbon nitride(BN/CN)heterojunction electrodes,demonstrates exceptional degradation performance toward chlorophenols.The high-surface-area porous BN/CN heterojunction facilitates electro-adsorption and charge carrier separation,thereby synergistically optimizing both photocatalytic(PC)and capacitive deionization(CDI)functionalities.Remarkably,the integrated system achieves a 2,4-DCP degradation efficiency of 97.15%and a 2,4,6-TCP degradation efficiency of 100%in 2 h.The CDI component enables spatial separation through the electro-adsorption of Cl^(-)ions at the anode,effectively mitigating their interference and suppressing chlorinated byproduct formation.Concurrently,the electro-adsorption of positively charged chlorophenol pollutants accelerates their diffusion to catalytic sites,promoting the reactive oxygen species(ROS)-driven degradation of chlorophenol pollutants.The PC-CDI system exhibits robust stability(>95%efficiency retention over five cycles)and broad applicability across various chlorophenol derivatives.By circumventing Cl^(-)-induced side reactions and inhibiting chlorine radical generation during photocatalysis,this strategy minimizes the environmental risks associated with chlorinated byproducts during chlorophenol wastewater treatment.These findings establish the PC-CDI system as a sustainable and eco-friendly technology for industrial wastewater treatment.

文摘To make full use of plant shellfibers(rice husk,walnut shell,chestnut shell),three kinds of wood-plastic com-posites of plant shellfibers and polyvinyl chloride(PVC)were prepared.X-ray diffraction analysis was carried out on three kinds of plant shellfibers to test their crystallinity.The aging process of the composites was conducted under 2 different conditions.One was artificial seawater immersion and xenon lamp irradiation,and the other one was deionized water spray and xenon lamp irradiation.The mechanical properties(tensile strength,flexural strength,impact strength),changes in color,water absorption,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),and microstructures of the composites before and after the two aging experiments were analyzed.The results showed that the chestnut shell had the highest crystallinity,which was 42%.The chestnut shell/PVC composites had the strongest interface bonding,the least internal defects,and the best general mechanical properties among the three composites.Its tensile strength,bending strength and impact strength were 23.81 MPa,34.12 MPa,and 4.32 KJ·m^(-2),respectively.Comparing the two aging conditions,artificial seawater immersion and xenon lamp irradiation destroyed the quality of the combination of plant shellfibers and PVC,making the internal defects of the composites increase.This made the water absorption ability and changes in the color of the composites more obvious and led to a great decrease in the mechanical properties.The general mechanical properties of the chestnut shell/PVC composites were the best,but their water absorption ability changed more obviously.

文摘Chemical interferences （ionization and oxide/hydroxide formation） on the atomic absorbance signal of lithium in FAAS analysis of brine samples are elaborated in this article. It is suggested that inadequate or overaddition of deionization buffers can lead to loss of sensitivities under particular operating conditions. In the analysis of brine samples, signal enhancing and oxide/hydroxide formation inducing signal reduction resulting from overaddition of deionization buffers can be seen with varying amounts of chemical buffers. Based on experimental results, the authors have arrived at the optimized operating conditions for the detection of lithium, under which both ionization and stable compound formation can be suppressed. This is a simplified and quick method with adequate accuracy and precision for the determination of lithium in routine brine samples from chemical plants or R＆D laboratories, which contain comparable amounts of lithium with some other components.

文摘Chromium(Cr)is a common heavy metal that has severe impacts on the ecosystem and human health.Capacitive deionization(CDI)is an environment-friendly and energy-efficient electrochemical purification technology to remove Cr from polluted water.The performance of CDI systems relies primarily on the properties of electrodes.Carbon-nanotubes(CNTs)membranes are promising candidates in creating advanced CDI electrodes and processes.However,the low electrosorption capacity and high hydrophobicity of CNTs greatly impede their applications in water systems.In this study,we employ atomic layer deposition(ALD)to deposit TiO_(2) nanoparticulates on CNTs membranes for preparing electrodes with hydrophilicity.The TiO_(2)-deposited CNTs membranes display preferable electrosorption performance and reusability in CDI processes after only 20 ALD cycles deposition.The total Cr and Cr(VI)removal efficiencies are significantly improved to 92.1%and 93.3%,respectively.This work demonstrates that ALD is a highly controllable and simple method to produce advanced CDI electrodes,and broadens the application of metal oxide/carbon composites in the electrochemical processes.

文摘Battery materials as emerging capacitive deionization electrodes for desalination have better salt removal capacities than traditional carbon-based materials.LiMn_(2)O_(4),a widely used cathode mate-rial,is difficult to utilize as a deionization electrode due to its structural instability upon cycling and Mn dissolution in aqueous-based electrolytes.Herein,a facile and low-cost ball-milling routine was proposed to prepare a LiMn_(2)O_(4)material with highly exposed(111)facets.The prepared electrode exhibited relatively low dissolution of Mn during cycling,which shows its long cycle stability.In the hybrid capacitive deionization system,the LiMn_(2)O_(4)/C electrode delivered a high desalination capacity of 117.3 mg g^(−1) without obvious capacity decay at a voltage of 1.0 V with a 20 mM initial salt concentration.In addition,the exposed(111)facets significantly alleviated Mn ion dissolution,which also enhanced the structural steadiness.

文摘Nitrogenization is an effective method for improving the capacitive deionization(CDI)performance of porous carbon materials.In particular,polymer organic frameworks with heteroatom doping,containing an ordered pore structure and excellent electrochemical stability,are ideal precursors for carbon materials for high-performance CDI.In this study,a nitrogen-enriched micro-mesoporous carbon(NMC)electrode was fabricated by carbonizing a Schiff base network-1 at 500,600,and 700℃.Scanning electron microscopy,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,X-ray diffraction,N_(2) adsorption-desorption,the contact angle of water,cyclic voltammetry,and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used to characterize the morphological structure,wettability,Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface areas,and electrochemical performance of the NMCs.The results showed that the NMC carbonized at 600℃ achieved the best specific capacitance(152.33 F/g),as well as a high electrosorption capacity(25.53 mg/g)because of its chemical composition(15.57%N)and surface area(312 m^(2)/g).These findings prove that NMC is viable as an electrode material for desalination by high-performance CDI applications.
