Накратко на български

Десалинационните батерии се подобряват чрез разработване на нови материали за електроди, които да улавят хлоридни йони. Това помага за създаването на по-енергийни и гъвкави технологии за пречистване на водата, за да се ограничи недостигът ѝ.

Revamping the Desalination Battery

Better managing energy and water resources together with the development of water treatment technologies with low environmental impact and energy consumption has become more essential than ever due to water-energy nexus and growing environmental issues. Some of the EU goal targets for 2030 include the equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water, to improve the water re-use and to increase the supply of fresh-water or to improve the water quality, among other key aspects. More particularly, considering the Agenda 2030 – Goal 6: Clean water and sanitation, “Water scarcity affects more than 40 percent of people, an alarming figure that is projected to rise as temperatures do”, there is a strong necessity of a secure and sustainable water supply, which requires the development of alternative desalination and water treatment technologies. In this context, REDEBA project aimed to revamp the Desalination Battery as a versatile technology for desalination and water treatment and thus, to face challenges associated to water scarcity. Accordingly, the work performed during REDEBA project addressed issues directly related to climate change and the environment and dealt with an issue of great relevance for the society and for the scientific community. The original and innovative aspects of this project lied in taking up the challenge to shift the knowledge frontier and develop a Cl- capturing electrode. Thus, the aim of this project was to develop a full concept for the next generation of Desalination Batteries, addressing the issue of new materials for anion capturing and cell design, which gives lower energy losses and more flexible operation. In order to do so, the development of flexible and anionic electrode materials was investigated, as well as the impact of operation variables on the desalination degree and on the energy consumption in dependence of the cell design.

Цел на проекта

Better managing energy and water resources along with development of water treatment technologies with low environmental impact and energy consumption has become more essential than ever due to water-energy nexus and growing environmental issues. This is mainly performed by using Reverse Osmosis (RO) technologies. However, RO presents number of environmental drawbacks such as effluents produced associated to the chemical regeneration of membranes. There is a strong necessity of secure and sustainable water supply, thus green technologies for water treatment are needed to safeguard the interests of a sensible use of water resources, to remain in strengthening environmental equilibrium as well as in the economic prosperity. Moreover, ""Climate action, environment, resource efficiency and raw materials Challenge"" in Horizon 2020 presents as one of its aims: positioning Europe as a global market leader in water-related innovative solutions. This project will revamp the Desalination Battery (DB) technology, the original and innovative aspects of the proposal lies in taking up the challenge to shift the knowledge frontier and develop a Cl- capturing electrode. Thus, the aim of this project is to develop a full concept for the next-generation DB, addressing the issue of new materials for anion capturing and cell design, which gives lower energy losses and more flexible operation. In order to do so, development of flexible and anionic electrode materials will be investigated, as well as the impact of operation variables on desalination degree and on energy consumption in dependence of the cell design. The multidisciplinary nature of the project is strong, involving a combination of electrode materials development, electrochemistry and engineering (scaling-up, cell and module design). This project is in line with the EU strategy for the sustainable development of water resources and desalination.""
