Abstract

Concentration polarization(CP) phenomena show great potential on desalination technology. As we can control the dimension of silicon based nanochannel system, it can be used to model ion exchange membrane. In this study, to investigate the effect of nanochannel number and working conditions on the CP based desalination process, nanochannel based microfluidic system is fabricated. First, we optimized nanochannel number and working conditions to conduct visualization study on CP based desalination process. Second, we visualized the desalination process with fluorescent dye in the desalination chip. We also visualized that the particles also can be removed by the CP based desalination process.
