Small Differences, Big Impact: Achieving Effective Selective Separations from Water by Tuning Ion Transport Processes

Selective ion separation plays a crucial role in Selective ion separation plays an important role in water treatment, resource recovery, and agriculture. As the need for sustainable water use intensifies and global demand for strategic resources like lithium increases, developing efficient and selective ion separation technologies becomes essential. In particular, the selective separation of ions with similar properties, such as sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+), remains a significant challenge. In the ION-TRACE project, I aim to overcome this challenge by developing innovative separation processes. My approach involves pioneering electro-driven processes, including Battery Deionization (BDI)…
