<p>An apparatus having deionization cells (80), each cell having two different electrodes (20, 22), is disclosed. The first electrode (22) is formed from a high surface are a absorptive material ('HSAAM') made from resorcinol, formaldehyde, a carbon reinforcing agent, catalyst and reaction products thereof, in carbonized form. The second electrode (20) is formed of non-HSAAM material, such as carbon cloth or carbon felt. Each deionization cell (80) has a single HSAAM electrode (22) bordered on either side by a non-HSAAM electrode (20), and adjacent cells do not share any electrodes of either type. A method of making the HSAAM electrodes (22) by setting a polymerized mixture of resorcinol, formaldehyde and carbon reinforcing agent supplied in the form of carbon fibers, carbon felt or cellulose under controlled temperature and time constraints, and subsequently firing the resulting product to carbonize the electrode is disclosed.</p> |
