탄소중립을 지향하는 전기화학적 이온 분리(EIONS) 기술 = Electrochemical Ion Separation Technology for Carbon Neutrality

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Recently, green processes that can be directly used in an energy-efficient and electrified society to achieve carbon neutrality are attracting attention. Existing heat and pressure-based desalination technologies that consume tremendous amounts of energy are no exception, and the growth of next-generation electrochemical-based desalination technologies is remarkable. One of the most representative electrochemical desalination technologies is electrochemical ion separation (EIONS) technology, which includes capacitive desalination (CDI) and battery desalination (BD) technology. In the research field of EIONS, various system applications have been developed to improve system performance, such as capacity and cyclability. However, it is very difficult to understand the meaning and novelty of these applications immediately because there are only a few papers that summarize the research background for domestic readers. Therefore, in this review paper, we aim to describe the technological advances and individual characteristics of each system in clear and specific detail about the latest EIONS research. The driving principle, research background, and strengths and weaknesses of each EIONS system are explained in order. In addition, this paper concluded by suggesting the future development and research direction of EIONS. Researchers who are just beginning out in EIONS research can also benefit from this study because it will help them understand the research trend.
