Abstract

La présente invention permet d'augmenter la zone d'adsorption efficace grâce à l'activation de fibres de carbone afin d'améliorer l'efficacité d'adsorption/désorption ionique. Elle se présente sous la forme d'une électrode hybride dont la surface est dopée afin d'améliorer la capacité d'adsorption et d'éliminer facilement les ions polyvalents, et elle permet d'éviter une dégradation de la capacité d'adsorption associée à une chute de tension au niveau de l'électrode grâce à une réduction de la résistivité volumique dans chaque partie de l'électrode. La présente invention concerne, donc, la fabrication d'un module électrode en fibres de carbone activé hybrides de désionisation capacitive conçu de façon à ce que l'électricité statique résiduelle soit minimisée du fait de l'augmentation de la force électrostatique de l'électrode par compression mécanique de l'espacement entre les électrodes afin de réduire la durée de la réaction d'adsorption/désorption ionique, puis par élargissement de l'espacement entre les électrodes par relâchement durant la désorption ionique, tous les composants du module électrode étant perméables si bien qu'un grand nombre des ions présents dans l'eau entrent en contact avec l'électrode en l'espace d'un bref laps de temps.
