Abstract
Electrodialysis and electrodialysis reversal (ED/EDR) have been used for desalination of alternative waters, by separating charged ions with ion- exchange membranes under electric potential. Compared with pressure-driven desalination technologies such as reverse osmosis (RO), ED is more flexible at providing product water with tailored water quality for specific end use purposes. Ion-exchange membranes showed higher tolerance to silica, suspended solids, hardness, free chlorine residue, and organic matters compared to RO membranes. However, fouling and scaling is still considered as a significant challenge for ED to treat impaired waters. Bio-fouling caused by microorganisms and organic fouling caused by natural organic matters degrade ED performance, reduce membrane lifetime, increase cleaning frequency and increase energy consumption. The objective of this project is to develop anti- fouling ion-exchange membranes by surface modification of commercially available ion-exchange membranes (Suez Water Technologies & Solutions) with polymers and nano-materials including TiO2 and graphene oxide (GO).
