Novel ceramic membranes for electrodialysis
Inorganic ceramic membranes suitable for electrodialysis were prepared on the basis of ceramic membrane supports containing aluminium and zirconium oxides. The modification of a ceramic membrane by zirconium phosphate increases its selectivity for cation transfer, making them suitable for use in electrolyte desalination and complex solution electrolysis.
