Abstract:Flow electrode capacitive deionization(FCDI)technology is an efficient desalting technology for wastewater treatment.However,low electrical conductivity of flow electrode slurry caused low current u-tilization rate and poor desalination performance.Therefore,the cellulosic biomass carbon materials such as carbonized bacterial cellulose(CBC),carbonized chitin(CCH)and carbonized straw(CSW)are intro-duced in flow electrode as conductive agents to improve the utilization rate of active materials(Activated carbon,AC).The results showed that the group of 5 AC with 0.25 CBC could obtain a higher salt ion re-moval rate(1.26~5.92 mmol·L-1·(m2·s)-1)than only group of 5 AC-only(0.09~2.58 mmol·L-1 ·(m2·s)-1)under saline water concentration ranged from 1.01~35.00 g/L at 1.8 V.Electrochemical and physical characterization analysis further revealed that the introduction of CBC can more availably generate an interconnected conductive network than spherical carbon black particles(CB)and thus enhances the o-verall conductivity of the flow-electrode slurry.Finally,the established FCDI system shows excellent per-formance and potential applications in the desalination of printing and dyeing tail water.
