Selective adsorption of phosphate by carboxyl-modified activated carbon electrodes for capacitive deionization

Capacitive deionization (CDI) has been considered as a promising technology for removing phosphate from water but suffer inferior selectivity and electrosorption performances for phosphate of current carbon electrodes in CDI. Herein, we achieved highly selective phosphate removal from a ternary effl...
