Optimal Operational Profiles in an Electrodialysis Unit for Ion Recovery

Electrodialysis is an efficient process for the cleaning of industrial water effluent streams from toxic ionic substances with the simultaneous recovery of valuable ions for reuse. Energy consumption and waste recovery are the two key goals of the process. A dynamic optimisation program aims to dete...

description Electrodialysis is an efficient process for the cleaning of industrial water effluent streams from toxic ionic substances with the simultaneous recovery of valuable ions for reuse. Energy consumption and waste recovery are the two key goals of the process. A dynamic optimisation program aims to determine the optimal operating conditions in terms of applied voltage and effluent flow rate in a batch operating scheme. A model is developed that accounts for the ion transfer through the ion selective membranes and the dynamics of the system. A combination of three objective functions targeting the minimisation of the overall batch process time, the minimisation of the electrical energy consumption required for the ion transfer, and the maximisation of the overall degree of separation is investigated. The manipulated variables applied voltage and feed stream flow rate are considered as piecewise constant during each time interval, spanning the duration of the entire batch. The dynamic optimisation problem is solved through standard non-linear programming techniques which calculate the optimal batch duration and condition profiles for the system.
