Flow-electrode Capacitive Deionization

Abstract

Flow-electrode capacitive deionization (FCDI) utilizes flowable suspension electrodes instead of fixed electrodes on a current collector which thereby enables continuous operation of the CDI process. This chapter reviews the recent advances in FCDI techniques through discussing the influence factors determining the FCDI process and the application of FCDI not limited to water desalination.
