다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The capacitive deionization (CDI) process is a technology employed to remove ionic materials when a potential is applied on the carbon electrodes. CDI is operated at a low potential region so that an electrochemical reaction does not occur on the electrode surface. Therefore the process is highly advantageous and low energy consumption. Also, the regeneration of the electrode is very simple and environmentally friendly technology. Because of these advantages, CDI technology will be easy to apply to water treatment process. Therefore, we have developed high performance CDI electrodes for water treatment process and have successfully applied the developed CDI system using this electrodes. The durability test was carried out using a pilot device and it was confirmed that the operation was stable. The CDI technology has great advantages in high hardness concentration, low energy consumption and high water recovery rate, which is advantageous to apply in the world water treatment market.
