Abstract

Continuous Electrodeionization (CEDI) is a hybrid separation process of electrodialysis and ion exchange to produce high purity water under electric field. CEDI system is generally explained with two regimes, ionic removal and electroregeneration. The performance optimization and modification of stack configuration is required for the effective utilization and various applications of a CEDI system. Understanding on various system characterization method and ion transport equation is thus necessary to utilize the CEDI system more effectively. This article provides a general review of continuous electrodeionization, including the basic principles and current stage of technologies of a CEDI system.

전기탈이온 시스템은 전기투석과 이온교환수지법의 혼합 공정으로서 외부전기장 하에서의 이온교환매개체를 통해 이온이 제거되어 고순수를 제조할 수 있도록 고안된 장치이다. 전기탈이온 장치는 이온의 제거 메커니즘과 이온교환 매개체의 전기적 재생 메커니즘으로 설명되며 이를 이용하여 희석조의 성능을 최적화하는 것이 시스템의 효과적인 사용을 위해서 필요하다. 또한 전기탈이온 장치의 다양한 분야에서의 적용을 위해서는 스택구성을 다양하게 변경하여 적용가능성을 판단하는 것이 필요하다. 이를 효과적으로 달성하기 위해서는 기존에 제시되었던 다양한 시스템 특성분석법과 이동현상 관련 수식들을 이해하여 전기탈이온 스택구성에 적용하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하다. 본 총설에서는 전기탈이온 장치의 최적화를 위해 필요한 기초 이론들과 방법들에 대해서 살펴보고 현재의 연구동향에 대해서 고찰하여 분리공정으로서의 이해를 높이고자 하였다.
