Project - A Novel Ion Selective Membrane for Efficient Electrodialysis Desalination

The worldwide scarcity of clean water necessitates the development of innovative technologies to separate pollutants from untreated water. Membrane separation has emerged as a promising solution among traditional liquid-separation methods. Due to its inherent characteristics, such as excellent efficiency, eco-friendliness, affordability, scalability, minimal space requirements, and straightforwardness, membrane separation stands out as a top-performing method in water treatment. Desalination and the recycling of wastewater, particularly using membrane technology, are regarded as essential responses to the worldwide water crisis, which is being intensified by the growing effects of climate change, expanding urban areas, population growth, and industrial development.
On the other hand, electrodialysis (ED) technology has received significant interest as a promising water treatment method thanks to its exceptional selectivity in separating components, excellent recovery of raw water, and environmentally friendly profile with no pollution. The effectiveness of the electrodialysis process relies on the quality of ion-selective membranes, as they play a pivotal role in determining its overall performance. Therefore, the crucial factor in advancing ED technology lies in developing ion-selective membranes that exhibit outstanding overall performance while maintaining cost-effectiveness. We aim to advance the development and application of ion-selective membranes in electrodialysis desalination for sustainable and efficient freshwater production.
