Elektrodialisis merupakan suatu proses yang menggunakan perbezaan keupayaan elektrik sebagai daya penggerak yang menyebabkan pergerakan ion-ion dalam sesuatu elektronit. Membran yang digunakan dalam proses ini akan membenarkan sama ada cas-cas positif atau negatif sahaja melaluinya bergantung kepada kumpulan berfungsi yang terikat pada membran. Objektif projek penyelidikan ini adalah untuk menghasilkan membran pertukaran kation yang digunakan dalam proses elektrodialisis. Membran-membran pertukaran kation yang dihasilkan terbahagi kepada lima jenis, dan diberi nama sebagai BERL–30, 40, 50, 60, dan 70. Kelima-lima jenis membran ini berbeza dari segi kandungan resin yang berfungsi sebagai vektor pertukaran cas kation. Di samping penyediaan membran, penyelidikan ini juga meliputi aspek pencirian membran tersebut serta perbandingan dengan membran komersial. Kriteria yang dikaji adalah ketebalan membran, sifat kebolehtelapan membran, kapasiti pertukaran ion, kapasiti kepekatan ion kumpulan berfungsi, morfologi struktur membran, ujian kestabilan kimia dan kandungan air membran. Secara keseluruhannya, didapati peratus kandungan resin yang tinggi boleh meningkatkan kapasiti pertukaran ion, peratus kebolehtelapan membran serta kapasiti kepekatan ion kumpulan berfungsi. Antara membran yang dihasilkan, membran pertukaran kation jenis BERL–70 merupakan membran yang berpotensi dalam penggunaan proses elektrodialisis. Kata kunci: Membran pertukaran kation, polisulfona, resin pertukaran ion, ciri-ciri membran, elekrodialisis The objective of this work is to prepare an anion exchange membrane from polysulfone binder–ion exchange resin, which can be used in electrodialysis process. The cation exchange membranes were prepared by the solution casting method. The prepared anion exchange membranes are different from the conventional cation exchange membranes because its functional group is not derived from chlorosulfonic acid but from the absorption of anion exchange resins. The content of resins in each set of the prepared cation exchange membrane varied and were named as BERL–30, 40, 50, 60, and 70. In addition, the performance and behaviour of the prepared anion exchange membrane were evaluated and compared with the commercial cation exchange membranes. The physico-chemical properties of anion exchange membrane were determined by measuring the membrane thickness, permselectivity, and concentration of ion exchange capacity, chemical stability, water content, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). It was found that the increase in the quantity of resin (%) would increase the capacity of ion exchange, percentage of permselectivity, and capacity concentration of ion exchange group. The experimental results showed that cation exchange membrane has the potential to be used in electrodialysis process. Keywords: Cation exchange membrane, electrodialysis, polysulfone, ion exchange resin, membrane characterisation

Electrodialysis (ED) desalination performance of different conventional and laboratory-scale ion exchange membranes (IEMs) has been evaluated by many researchers, but most of these studies used their own sets of experimental parameters such as feed solution compositions and concentrations, superficial velocities of the process streams (diluate, concentrate, and electrode rinse), applied electrical voltages, and types of IEMs. Thus, direct comparison of ED desalination performance of different IEMs is virtually impossible. While the use of different conventional IEMs in ED has been reported, the use of bioinspired ion exchange membrane has not been reported yet. The goal of this study was to evaluate the ED desalination performance differences between novel laboratory‑scale bioinspired IEM and conventional IEMs by determining (i) limiting current density, (ii) current density, (iii) current efficiency, (iv) salinity reduction in diluate stream, (v) normalized specific energy consumption, and (vi) water flux by osmosis as a function of (a) initial concentration of NaCl feed solution (diluate and concentrate streams), (b) superficial velocity of feed solution, and (c) applied stack voltage per cell-pair of membranes. A laboratory‑scale single stage batch-recycle electrodialysis experimental apparatus was assembled with five cell‑pairs of IEMs with an active cross-sectional area of 7.84 cm2. In this study, seven combinations of IEMs (commercial and laboratory-made) were compared: (i) Neosepta AMX/CMX, (ii) PCA PCSA/PCSK, (iii) Fujifilm Type 1 AEM/CEM, (iv) SUEZ AR204SZRA/CR67HMR, (v) Ralex AMH-PES/CMH-PES, (vi) Neosepta AMX/Bare Polycarbonate membrane (Polycarb), and (vii) Neosepta AMX/Sandia novel bioinspired cation exchange membrane (SandiaCEM). ED desalination performance with the Sandia novel bioinspired cation exchange membrane (SandiaCEM) was found to be competitive with commercial Neosepta CMX cation exchange membrane.

Salinity gradient power is a renewable, non-intermittent, and neutral carbon energy source. Reverse electrodialysis is one of the most efficient and mature techniques that can harvest this energy from natural estuaries produced by the mixture of seawater and river water. For this, the development of cheap and suitable ion-exchange membranes is crucial for a harvest profitability energy from salinity gradients. In this work, both anion-exchange membrane and cation-exchange membrane based on poly(epichlorohydrin) and polyvinyl chloride, respectively, were synthesized at a laboratory scale (255 c m 2) by way of a solvent evaporation technique. Anion-exchange membrane was surface modified with poly(ethylenimine) and glutaraldehyde, while cellulose acetate was used for the cation exchange membrane structural modification. Modified cation-exchange membrane showed an increase in surface hydrophilicity, ion transportation and permselectivity. Structural modification on the cation-exchange membrane was evidenced by scanning electron microscopy. For the modified anion exchange membrane, a decrease in swelling degree and an increase in both the ion exchange capacity and the fixed charge density suggests an improved performance over the unmodified membrane. Finally, the results obtained in both modified membranes suggest that an enhanced performance in blue energy generation can be expected from these membranes using the reverse electrodialysis technique.
