Abstract
This study investigates the use of Ti3C2Tx MXene as flow electrodes in a flow electrode capacitive deionization (FE-CDI) system for ammonia removal and recovery from simulated agricultural wastewater. The system demonstrated 60% ion removal efficiency with an adsorption capacity of 460 mg g⁻¹ at a constant voltage of ±1.20 V. Characterizations using SEM, TEM, XRD, DLS, and Raman spectroscopy revealed favorable properties of MXenes, including high conductivity, hydrophilicity, and stability. The FE-CDI system exhibited energy efficiency with a charge efficiency of 58–70% and energy consumption of 0.45 kWh kg⁻¹, showcasing its potential for energy-efficient ammonia removal and recovery.
