Abstract
⺠Dissolved organic matter (humic acid) is the main cause of CDI electrode fouling. ⺠CDI removal efficiency and its production rate decreases by increasing feed TOC. ⺠CDI energy consumption (kWh/m3) increases by increasing feed TOC. ⺠Ferric ions seemed to be a great contributor to CDI scaling. ⺠Alkaline and acid cleaning solutions were able to completely restore the recovery of the CDI.
