A device for removing ions from a solution. The device includes first and second end plates, an anion exchange membrane positioned between the first and second end plates, a first multiple of two or more first cation intercalation electrodes positioned between the first end plate and the anion exchange membrane, and one or more second intercalation electrodes positioned between the second end plate and the anion exchange membrane. The first multiple of two or more first cation intercalation electrodes and the one or more second intercalation electrodes are configured to receive an electric bias of current or voltage such that the first multiple of two or more first cation intercalation electrodes and the one or more second intercalation electrodes store and release ions from the solution.

Methods and systems directed to recovery of lithium (e.g., lithium salts) from liquid streams are provided. In some embodiments, methods relate to obtaining lithium (e.g., as a solid lithium salt) by removing at least a portion of liquid from a feed stream to form a concentrated stream with respect to solubilized lithium cations. Liquid removal may include transporting at least a portion of the feed stream to an osmotic unit and/or a humidifier. Some methods include removing impurities (e.g., non-lithium cations) from the concentrated stream (e.g., via precipitation and/or crystallization). In some embodiments, solutions containing solubilized lithium cations and anions are electrochemically-treated such that first solubilized anions are replaced with second, different anions. In some embodiments, solid lithium salt containing at least a portion of the lithium cations and the second anions is obtained (e.g., via precipitation and/or crystallization following concentration of the electrochemically-treated solution in a humidifier).

The present disclosure provides an application of a titanium carbide/porous carbon composite in electrochemical treatment of uranium-containing wastewater, and belongs to the technical field of wastewater treatment. The present disclosure provides the application of the titanium carbide/porous carbon composite in electrochemical treatment of uranium-containing wastewater. Titanium carbide (TiC) is a typical transition metal carbide and has good conductivity and excellent chemical stability; compared with a titanium dioxide/carbon nanomaterial, the titanium carbide/porous carbon composite has a rich pore structure that provides a large number of activated adsorption sites for adsorption of metal ions during electro-adsorption, so that the electro-adsorption efficiency can be substantially improved, and a better electro-adsorption effect is obtained.

Integrated plants and associated processes for producing ammonia and sulfuric acid have been developed comprising air separation and water electrolysis subsystems and which make surprisingly efficient use of the products from these subsystems (i.e. oxygen and nitrogen from the former and hydrogen and oxygen from the latter). The invention is particularly suitable for use as part of an integrated fertilizer production plant.

A device for preparing high-purity hydrogen and/or oxygen by electrolyzing water, including an electrolyzer and a degasser for degassing desalted water. The degasser is located at the upstream of the electrolyzer. After desalted water is heated and degassed in the degasser, the content of gaseous impurities, particularly argon, can be reduced to several ppb (weight ratio). The hydrogen and oxygen generated after the desalted and degassed water is electrolyzed in the electrolyzer also contain an extremely small amount of argon, so that the requirements in semiconductor industry are met. Also involved is a method of preparing high-purity hydrogen and/or oxygen by using the device.

A water purification electrolytic generator apparatus provides clean drinking water to users. An electrolyte is added to water/other liquid exposed to the electrolytic generator apparatus in order to create an environment suitable for the apparatus to function . Residing in a housing of the apparatus is an enclosed first electrode (cathode) printed on a printed circuit board, a second electrode (anode), and a membrane separating the cathode and anode/printed circuit board. A control circuit including the printed circuit board electrically connects the anode and cathode to a power source, which is located external to the interior of the container. The incorporation of the printed circuit board reduces costs and improves portability so that the water purification system can provide drinkable water to users in different circumstances. A system including the apparatus may further include a container housing the electrolytic generator apparatus, a lid, and a stand. A filter is positioned in the container to filter water poured into the container.

The present invention is in the field of a system for gas recovery from wastewater, a method for treating wastewater, and a method wherein ammonia and carbon dioxide are recovered. Typically a wastewater stream is fed into the system, treated and stripped from ammonia and carbon dioxide, and a cleaner stream is released.
