In this study, an ED stack with monovalent selective AEMs and conventional CEMs was employed to separate the Cl-and SO42- from simulated wastewater. The effect of current density and mass fraction percentage was investigated in order to optimize the experimental conditions during ED process. It was found that at a concentration ratio between NaCl and Na2SO4 of 95/5 (wt%/wt%) and a current density of 40 mA·cm-2, a current efficiency of 72%, an energy consumption of 1.6 kW·h·kg-1 NaCl and a Cl-/SO42- concentration (67.5/3.5 g·L-1) were obtained. Hence, it is appropriate and effective to separate Cl-and SO42- by ED using the monovalent selective AEMs. %U https://cjche.cip.com.cn/EN/10.1016/j.cjche.2018.08.007
