My final year project was related to Water and WW treatment involving the desalination and removal of heavy metals from brackish water using Capacitive Deionization Technology. Membrane Capacitive deionization (CDI) is a sorption process for the desalination of brackish water. The CDI working principle depends on the use of porous carbon materials as electrodes. Including the membranes in the process has two advantages: first, they block co-ions from leaving the electrodes, thereby increasing the salt removal efficiency of the process, and second, when during ion release a reversed voltage is used, counter ions can be more fully flushed from the electrode region CDI has advantages due to its low energy consumption, low environmental pollution, and low fouling potential
