    membranes Article State-of-the-Art Water Treatment in Czech Power Sector: Industry-Proven Case Studies Showing Economic and Technical Benefits of Membrane and Other Novel Technologies for Each Particular Water Cycle Jaromír Marek Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Humanities and Education, Technical University of Liberec, Studentská 1402/2, 461 17 Liberec, Czech Republic; [email protected]; Tel.: +420-732-277-183 Abstract: The article first summarizes case studies on the three basic types of treated water used in power plants and heating stations. Its main focus is Czechia as the representative of Eastern European countries. Water as the working medium in the power industry presents the three most common cycles—the first is make-up water for boilers, the second is cooling water and the third is represented by a specific type of water (e.g., liquid waste mixtures, primary and secondary circuits in nuclear power plants, turbine condensate, etc.). The water treatment technologies can be summarized into four main groups—(1) filtration (coagulation) and dosing chemicals, (2) ion exchange technology, (3) membrane processes and (4) a combination of the last two. The article shows the ideal industry-proven technology for each water cycle. Case studies revealed the economic, technical and environmental advantages/disadvantages of each technology.

  • Advancing Electrodeionization with Conductive Ionomer Binders That
    www.nature.com/npjcleanwater ARTICLE OPEN Advancing electrodeionization with conductive ionomer binders that immobilize ion-exchange resin particles into porous wafer substrates ✉ ✉ Varada Menon Palakkal 1,3, Lauren Valentino 2,3, Qi Lei 1, Subarna Kole1, Yupo J. Lin 2 and Christopher G. Arges 1 Electrodeionization (EDI) is an electrically driven separations technology that employs ion-exchange membranes and resin particles. Deionization occurs under the influence of an applied electric field, facilitating continuous regeneration of the resins and supplementing ionic conductivity. While EDI is commercially used for ultrapure water production, material innovation is required for improving desalination performance and energy efficiency for treating alternative water supplies. This work reports a new class of ion-exchange resin-wafers (RWs) fabricated with ion-conductive binders that exhibit exceptional ionic conductivities—a3–5-fold improvement over conventional RWs that contain a non-ionic polyethylene binder. Incorporation into an EDI stack (RW-EDI) resulted in an increased desalination rate and reduced energy expenditure compared to the conventional RWs. The water-splitting phenomenon was also investigated in the RW in an external experimental setup in this work. Overall, this work demonstrates that ohmic resistances can be substantially curtailed with ionomer binder RWs at dilute salt concentrations. npj Clean Water (2020) 3:5 ; https://doi.org/10.1038/s41545-020-0052-z 1234567890():,; INTRODUCTION EDI stack is more thermodynamically efficient for removing ions in 10 Electrochemical separations, which primarily consist of electrodia- the more challenging dilute concentration regime. lysis (ED), electrodeionization (EDI), and membrane capacitive A drawback of conventional EDI is the utilization of loose resin deionization (MCDI/CDI),1 are a subset of technologies primarily beads that foster inconsistent process performance, stack leakage, used for deionization and other water treatment processes.

  • Wastewater Treatment by Electrodialysis System and Fouling Problems
    The Online Journal of Science and Technology - January 2016 Volume 6, Issue 1 WASTEWATER TREATMENT BY ELECTRODIALYSIS SYSTEM AND FOULING PROBLEMS Elif OZTEKIN, Sureyya ALTIN Bulent Ecevit University, Department of Environmental Engineering, Zonguldak-Turkey [email protected], VDOWÕQ#NDUDHOPDVHGXWU Abstract: Electrodialysis ED is a separation process commercially used on a large scale for production of drinking water from water bodies and treatment of industrial effluents (Ruiz and et al., 2007). ED system contains ion exchange membranes and ions are transported through ion selective membranes from one solution to another under the influence of electrical potential difference used as a driving force. ED has been widely used in the desalination process and recovery of useful matters from effluents. The performance of ED, depends on the operating conditions and device structures such as ion content of raw water, current density, flow rate, membrane properties, feed concentration, geometry of cell compartments (Chang and et al., 2009, Mohammadi and et al., 2004). The efficiency of ED systems consist in a large part on the properties of the ion exchange membranes. Fouling of ion exchange membranes is one of the common problems in ED processes (Lee and et al., 2009, Ruiz and et al., 2007). Fouling is basically caused by the precipitation of foulants such as organics, colloids and biomass on the membrane surface or inside the membrane and fouling problem reduces the transport of ions. The fouling problems are occasion to increase membrane resistance, loss in selectivity of the membranes and affect negatively to membrane performance (Lee and et al., 2002, Lindstrand and et al., 2000a, Lindstrand and et al., 2000b).

But the way that can be done separately, each has drawbacks. If done multiple, can simultaneously support for removal of cations anions process contained therein.

The RO system, with an effective membrane area of 1.1 m2, was operated using tap water with conductivity of 64 µs·cm−1, and the CEDI system experiments were carried out in a cell-pair stack consisting of 3 com- partments. During the parametric study of the RO-CEDI hybrid system, the optimal operating conditions were deter- mined based on the water purity. The electrical resistivity and water dissociation of the ion exchange resins and ion exchange membrane were verified as the key mechanisms of the CEDI system in the water purification. The produced water met the quality requirements as a make-up water in a nuclear power plant with a resistivity of 10-16.7 MΩ·cm. Key words: Continuous Electrodeionization, RO-CEDI Hybrid Process, Make-up Water, High Purity Water INTRODUCTION ments for the nuclear power plant.
