Electrochemical Removal of Cesium Ions via Capacitive Deionization Using an Ion-Exchange Layer Coated on a Carbon Electrode

This study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of using electrosorption to remove cesium (Cs<sup>+</sup>) ions from aqueous solutions using the membrane capacitive deionization (MCDI) process. The electrochemical properties were analyzed using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and impedance...
