ED an

8、d EDR systems employ electrochemical and membrane cell technolo- gies to separate ionic materials in aqueous solutions. These systems have proven useful in food processing, medical applications, and other specialized industrial uses, with major applications being the production of drinking water or

9、pure industrial process water from mineralized sources. Directed to engineers and operators of ED and EDR systems, this manual pro- vides detailed background information on ED and EDR as they relate to water treat- ment processes. The manual explains process principles, equipment information, electr

10、odialysis technology, and system design. Information on water chemistry is included to enhance understanding of water processing. It is hoped that this manual will also assist water process engineers and treat- ment plant decision makers in understanding the value of ED and EDR technology applied to

11、 their water treatment needs.

Other typ

15、es can be formulated to enhance the passage rates of selected ions. For example, membranes exist that show an affinity for nitrate passage over other anions. In Figure 1-3 there is no DC potential applied to the electrodes and no movement of ions. Figure 1-4 shows what occurs when DC potential is ap

20、mpartments 3 and 5 have a higher concentration of ions. When these membranes are properly arranged, two major and separate streams are produced (demineralized and concentrated), as well as two minor streams from the electrode compartments. For water treatment, several hundred of these compartments a

DEVELOPMENT OF ED AND EDR SYSTEMS ED selectively removes dissolved solids, based on their electrical charge, by transferring the brackish water ions through a semipermeable ion exchange membrane charged with an electrical potenti

22、al. Figure 1-5 shows a schematic of an entire ED system. It points out that the feedwater becomes separated into the following three types of water: (1) product water, which has an acceptably low TDS level; (2) brine, or concentrate, which is the water that receives the brackish water ions; and (3)

23、electrode feedwater, which is the water that passes directly over the electrodes that create the electrical potential. EDR involves reversing the electrical charge to a membrane after a specific interval of time. As described later, this polarity reversal helps prevent the formation of scale on the

24、membranes. Figure 1-6 shows a schematic of an EDR system. The setup is very similar to an ED system except for the presence of reversal valves. Demineralization of brackish water using ED was pioneered in the 1950s. ED has been used successfully over the past 40 years to treat municipal and process

25、water supplies.

According to IDA Desalting Plants I

28、nventory,* the installed worldwide capacity of ED and EDR membrane treatment plants increased from 2 mgd (7.5 Mud) in 1955 to more than 200 mgd (750 Mud) in 1992. Custom-designed and prepackaged ED and EDR plants provide water at predetermined TDS or salt-removal levels with high water recovery rate

29、s (i.e., with low amounts of feedwater being sent to waste). Additional production can be achieved by adding process trains or by operating the units in parallel (side by side) rather than in series (one after the other). The desalting capacity can be increased with additional stages of membranes in

30、 series. ED and EDR systems are capable of treating variable source water quality while producing a consistent finished water quality. ED and EDR plants can be designed to remove from 50 to 99 percent of source water contaminants or dissolved solids. Source water salinities of less than 100 mg/L up

31、to 12,000 mgL TDS can be successfully treated to produce finished water of less than 10 mg/L TDS. Batch and Continuous Electrodialysis The first type of commercial ED system was the batch system. In this type of ED system, source water is recirculated from a holding tank through the demineralizing s

32、pacers of a single membrane stack and back to the holding tank until the final purity is obtained. The production rate is dependent on the dissolved minerals concentration in the source water and on the degree of demineralization required. The concentrate stream is also recirculated to reduce wastew

33、ater volume, and continuous addition of acid is required to prevent membrane stack scaling. The second type of commercially available system was the unidirectional continuous-type ED. In this type of system, the membrane stack contains two stages in series; each stage helps demineralize the water. T

34、he demineralized stream makes a single pass through the stack and exits as product water. The concentrate stream is partially recycled to reduce wastewater volume and is injected with acid to prevent scaling. ED systems are unidirectional in the sense that cations move only toward the cathode and an

35、ions move only toward the anode. The current polarity does not reverse. (However, the direction of flow could reverse, and some commercial systems use this technique to deter the buildup of slime and foulants.) In unidirectional ED systems, scale prevention is achieved either by the use of scale inh

36、ibitors for calcium sulfate (Cas041 control and/or acids for carbonates control, or through the use of permselective membranes. Permselective membranes can be tailored to inhibit the passage of divalent anions or cations, such as sulfates, calcium, and magnesium. Permselective refers to the ability

37、of an ED membrane to discriminate between different ions to allow passage or permeation through the membrane. For example, the AST-type membranes show good permeation or high transport numbers for monovalent anions, such as Clk or NOp2, but have low transport numbers and show very low permeation rat

38、es for divalent or trivalent ions, such as s4k2, Pc2, or similar anions. This is achieved by specially treating the anion membrane, and the effect can be exploited to separate various ions. Existing commercial membranes are monovalent anion specific, monovalent cation specific, or hydrogen ion speci

39、fic. The relative specificities vary, with the monovalent anion membrane showing the greatest “Available from the International Desalting Association, Topsdale, Mass.

40、t numbers. Through the use of proper staging, with monovalent and divalent permselective membranes, the development of high calcium sulfate in the concentrate side of the membranes can be forestalled and scale formation prevented. Figures 1-7 and 1-8 illustrate. Figure 1-7 illustrates how a combinat

41、ion of monovalent anion selective membranes in a first stage, followed by a second stage containing monovalent cation permselective membranes, can be used to concentrate solutions well past the normal calcium sulfate solubility limits. In the first stage, no sulfate passes through the membrane, and

42、so the concentrate is rich in calcium chloride. Rather than passing this concentrate to stage 2, the stage 2 system concentrate is made up from fresh feed or another source. Here, the passage of calcium ions is retarded and the concentrate is rich in sodium sulfate. Neither stage ever exceeds the ca

43、lcium sulfate solubility limits. Yet, when the two concentrate streams are combined, together they can far exceed the calcium sulfate limit. In fact, precipitation can result on mixing. Figure 1-8 is a detail of the first stage from Figure 1-7 showing the use of a standard membrane with a monovalent

44、 anion permselective membrane. The concentrate stream is very low in sulfate, about equal to or slightly greater than the feedwater, while the chloride and sodium concentrations, for example, could be many times higher than the feedwater. In other schemes, the concentrate can be made up from a separ

45、ate water source that is already low in sulfate (for example, reverse osmosis permeate or ED dilute water) to increase water recovery. Colloidal particles or slimes that are slightly electronegative may accumulate on the anion membrane and cause membrane fouling. This problem is common to all classe

46、s of ED systems. These fouling agents are removed by flushing with cleaning systems. Control of scale and fouling is critical to all membrane systems - ED, EDR, RO, UF, and others.

49、Reversal Electrode compartments in EDR perform differently from those in unidirectional ED. EDR systems, first developed in the 1960s, incorporate electrical polarity reversal to control membrane scaling and fouling. These systems are designed to produce demineralized water continuously without continuous chemical addition during normal operation. In EDR systems, the polarity of the electrodes is reversed two to four times each hour. When polarity is reversed, chemical reactions at the electrodes are reversed. At the negative electrode, reactions produ
