Abstract: A method for reacting a liquid phase chemical species includes the steps of providing liquid phase containing at least one liquid phase chemical species, providing a gas phase, and providing a reactor vessel for containing the liquid phase and the gas phase. The liquid phase and the gas phase are placed in the reactor vessel so as to form a liquid-gas interface between the liquid phase and the gas phase within the reactor vessel. A pulsed discharge cathode and anode are provided for creating a pulsed discharge electric field at the liquid-gas interface. A pulsed power input to the pulsed discharge cathode and anode is provided, thereby creating a plasma comprising ions at the liquid-gas interface. A secondary electric field is directed transverse to the liquid-gas interface, wherein the secondary electric field will drive ions from the gas phase into the liquid phase to react with the liquid phase species.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a flow-electrode capacitive deionization (FCDI) desalination system and method of use. The system employs clusters of tubular membranes oriented parallel to each other, each membrane having an internal flow path capable of receiving an electrolyte slurry (carbon slurry) therethrough. Each tubular membrane further comprises an electrode coaxially extending through the entire length of the electrode. Preferably, adjacent electrodes within the cluster receive a positive or negative charge, respectively. The cluster of tubular membranes is nested within a flow chamber capable of receiving saline or brackish water to be flowed along the outside surfaces of the tubular membranes to cause selected ions, e.g., Na+, Cl— to pass through the membranes and into the carbon slurry circuit. The desalinated water then passes out of the flow chamber. The outer diameter of the electrodes can be optimized based on the inner diameter of the tubular membrane.

Abstract: Apparatus for purifying a fluid, which comprises at least one ion absorption cell (2) with an operating chamber (4, 5) at its interior through which a first operative fluid (F1) flows and an evacuation chamber (13, 13′) through which a second operative fluid (F2, F2′) flows and which is separated from the operating chamber (4,5) by a filtering membrane (100). A porous electrical conductor (18) is housed in the evacuation chamber (13, 13′) and is traversed by the second operative fluid (F2, F2′). Two electrodes (A, B) have the aforesaid operating chamber (4, 5) and evacuation chamber (13, 13′) interposed, and are supplied with opposite polarities in order to generate an operative electric field in the operating chamber (4, 5) and a limited electric field in the evacuation chamber (13, 13′), the latter with value lower than the operative electric field, due to the shielding effect of the porous electrical conductor (18). The charged particles contained in the operating chamber (4, 5) are susceptible of traversing the filtering membrane (100) under the action of the operative electric field generated by the electrodes (A, B), and be evacuated by the second operative fluid (F2, F2′) in the evacuation chamber (13, 13′), in which they are subjected to the action of the limited electric field.
