摘要

电容去离子技术（CDI）凭借低能耗、常温运行、无高压设备、可再生能源等优势，成为极具潜力的水处理技术。但是目前大多数以机理研究和实验室研究为主，工业化应用的研究不足。首次从工程角度梳理CDI工业化关键技术与性能指标，系统地综述了CDI工业化应用研究进展，从可工业化应用的电极材料和装置构型、性能指标、工艺系统以及工程应用四个方面分析。探讨了不同材料在工业化应用中的优缺点，更适合工业化的电容去离子装置，通过操作参数、流道设计、智能控制及预处理去优化工艺。当前CDI实现工业化仍面临着很多挑战，未来将向复合电极、连续化装置、系统集成与场景定制方向发展，为工业水处理规模化应用提供支撑。

Abstract

Capacitive deionization ( CDI ) has become a promising water treatment technology due to its advantages of low energy consumption

normal temperature operation

no high voltage equipment and renewable energy. However

most of the current research is mainly based on mechanism research and laboratory research

and the research on industrial application is insufficient. For the first time

the key technology and performance indicators of CDI industrialization are sorted out from the engineering point of view

and the research progress of CDI industrialization application is systematically reviewed. It is analyzed from four aspects : electrode materials and device configuration

performance index

process system and engineering application. The advantages and disadvantages of different materials in industrial applications are discussed. The capacitive deionization device is more suitable for industrialization. The process is optimized by operating parameters

flow channel design

intelligent control and pretreatment. At present

the industrialization of CDI still faces many challenges. In the future

it will develop in the direction of composite electrodes

continuous devices

system integration and scene customization

providing support for large-scale application of industrial water treatment.
