| 摘要 |
The present invention is directed, in part, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for the removal of ions from a fluid that allows for the capture of the energy of discharge from the rinse phase of a capacitive deionization cell. In one embodiment, there is provided an electrical arrangement in which a charging rectifier (132) and a discharging inverter (133) are electrically connected via multiplexer (136) to an at least one pair of capacitive deionization arrays (134, 135). The electrical arrangement allows the capacitive deionization arrays (134, 135) to alternately and/or simultaneously charge and discharge into either the rectifier (132) or the inverter (133). In another embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an electrical arrangement in which the energy of a discharging capacitive deionization array (134) is used to charge a capacitive deionization array (135). |
