Abstract
The cost-effective desalination technologies were urgent needed to recycle industrial saline wastewater, desalinate seawater and brackish water. Deionisation techniques based on the adsorption principle usually suffer from low adsorption capacity of the adsorbent, susceptibility to contamination, regeneration difficulties and secondary contamination. In this paper, the magnetic reduced graphene oxide (mrGO) was successfully prepared as magnetic media, and a novel magnetic adsorption deionization and capacitive deionization coupled system (MDI-CDI) was constructed, in which a superposition magnetic field with consistent direction was formed by the internal additional magnetic field of magnetic media and the external magnetic field. The relationship between various salt solutions, initial concentration, operation patterner and deionization effect were investigated by KCl solution to optimize the MDI system. The actual petrochemical circulating wastewater (0.933 mS/cm), were adopted to investigate the magneto-electric coupling effect of MDI-CDI system, the average desalination rate and COD removal were 96.9 % and 84.8 %, respectively. In addition, the three-stage tandem MDI system was adopted to investigate the enhanced magnetic adsorption deionization effect, which was 79.3 % of catalytic cracking wastewater (37.4 mS/cm) and 84.0 % of petrochemical wastewater (3.68 mS/cm), respectively. The results indicate that the main deionization mechanisms of MDI system were enhanced by a superimposed magnetic field, including physical adsorption, magnetic attraction, electrostatic attraction, and surface complexation/deposition effects. The MDI-CDI coupled deionisation system can mitigate membrane contamination, regenerate online without secondary pollution under low-consumption, high-efficiency and stable state, providing a new technological idea for the regeneration and utilization of saline wastewater.
期刊介绍:
Water Research, along with its open access companion journal Water Research X, serves as a platform for publishing original research papers covering various aspects of the science and technology related to the anthropogenic water cycle, water quality, and its management worldwide. The audience targeted by the journal comprises biologists, chemical engineers, chemists, civil engineers, environmental engineers, limnologists, and microbiologists. The scope of the journal include:
•Treatment processes for water and wastewaters (municipal, agricultural, industrial, and on-site treatment), including resource recovery and residuals management;
•Urban hydrology including sewer systems, stormwater management, and green infrastructure;
•Drinking water treatment and distribution;
•Potable and non-potable water reuse;
•Sanitation, public health, and risk assessment;
•Anaerobic digestion, solid and hazardous waste management, including source characterization and the effects and control of leachates and gaseous emissions;
•Contaminants (chemical, microbial, anthropogenic particles such as nanoparticles or microplastics) and related water quality sensing, monitoring, fate, and assessment;
•Anthropogenic impacts on inland, tidal, coastal and urban waters, focusing on surface and ground waters, and point and non-point sources of pollution;
•Environmental restoration, linked to surface water, groundwater and groundwater remediation;
•Analysis of the interfaces between sediments and water, and between water and atmosphere, focusing specifically on anthropogenic impacts;
•Mathematical modelling, systems analysis, machine learning, and beneficial use of big data related to the anthropogenic water cycle;
•Socio-economic, policy, and regulations studies.
