Samsung Electronics has published a paper with Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU) on an electrochemical water treatment technology capable of power recovery in Joule, a world-renowned journal in the field of energy research.
Titled “Divalent and Halide Dual-Ion Storage of a Redox-Active Symmetric Cell for an Efficient Wastewater-Energy Nexus,” the paper presents a new paradigm for simultaneously implementing water treatment and energy storage while addressing the high power consumption and cost issues of existing electrochemical water treatment technologies. In particular, the research demonstrates that energy efficiency can be enhanced by supplying power generated from the electrode regeneration process to external devices — showing potential for wide application in various industries as well as daily life.
