Bipolar membrane electrodialysis (BMED) is a technology used for the separation and purification of various electrolyte solutions. It involves the use of a bipolar membrane, which is a specialized membrane that consists of an anion exchange layer and a cation exchange layer.
In BMED, an electric potential difference is applied across the bipolar membrane, causing the migration of ions in the solution towards their respective charge-selective layers. This process enables the separation of ions into two different streams: the anolyte and the catholyte.
Bipolar Electrodialysis uses the basics of electrodialysis but introduces a bipolar membrane which splits water into H+ and OH- within an electrodialysis stack. The application is wide, for example:
Acid Recovery: In industries where acid solutions are used, such as metal plating or chemical manufacturing, BED can be applied to recover and regenerate the acid from spent solutions. The bipolar membrane enables the selective transport of acidic ions while blocking other unwanted species, allowing for efficient acid recovery.
Water Treatment: BED has potential applications in water treatment processes to remove specific ions or contaminants. It can be used to separate and concentrate certain ions, such as heavy metals or toxic compounds, from wastewater or industrial effluents.
Resource Recovery: BED can facilitate the recovery and recycling of valuable resources from various waste streams. For example, it can be employed to extract precious metals from electronic waste or to recover valuable chemicals from industrial byproducts.
The initial use of electrodialysis was seawater desalination. With the continuous efforts of electrodialysis companies, the progress of membrane technology and the continuous development of application technology, the application of homogeneous membrane and bipolar membrane electrodialysis is gradually expanding. Electrodialysis will be widely used in energy, food, medicine, biology, metallurgy, chemical industry, environmental protection and drinking water.
The good sales trend of new energy vehicles has driven the annual increase in the installed capacity of power batteries. Driven by the rapid growth of the electric vehicle market, power lithium-ion batteries continue to maintain a rapid growth momentum, increasing the demand for lithium battery materials. Salt lake lithium extraction is an important subject of future new lithium ore production capacity and has great development potential. After 20 years of continuous exploration of lithium extraction technology, my country has initially formed three feasible salt lake lithium extraction routes, including membrane method (including electrodialysis and nanofiltration membrane separation method), adsorption method and solvent extraction method. The electrodialysis lithium extraction process technology will develop rapidly. At the same time, electrodialysis technology also has broad development prospects in the preparation of lithium hydroxide, lithium battery recycling and other fields.
Bipolar membrane electrodialysis technology plays a unique role in optimizing traditional process and new industrial process. Its emergence has changed the traditional process separation and preparation process, and injected new vitality into solving technical problems in environmental chemical industry, biology, marine chemical industry and other fields. At the same time, it provides an effective means to solve the environmental, resource and energy problems faced by mankind.
From the 1980s to the late 1990s, electrodialysis technology was impacted by new technologies such as reverse osmosis, nanofiltration and ultrafiltration, and was only used for pretreatment in water treatment projects, resulting in the slow development of electrodialysis technology. In the first decade of the 21st century, the introduction of bipolar membrane technology has been well developed and applied. The breakthrough and development of electrodialysis technology have been significantly improved, while reducing the technical cost and management difficulty, making it widely promoted.
Bipolar membrane technology is specific and irreplaceable. There are still problems at this stage. In the future, bipolar membrane electrodialysis technology will be gradually improved and widely used.
The market opportunities for bipolar membrane electrodialysis are broad, but the application of bipolar membrane electrodialysis in most countries is mainly based on imported bipolar membranes, and many companies are still in the active research and development stage.
In China, although bipolar membranes started late, there are already many actual application cases of bipolar membrane electrodialysis in China, and there are corresponding application cases for salt-containing wastewaters such as Na2SO4, NaCl, NaNO3, Li2SO4, and NH4Cl.
