Abstract

Electromembrane systems, are used for desalination at electrolyte solution concentrations ranging from 1 to 100 mol/m3. In a theoretical study of increasing the efficiency of the desalination process, mathematical modeling is used in the form of a boundary value problem for the system of Nernst-Planck and Poisson (NPP) equations, which refers to "hard" problems that are difficult to solve numerically. This is caused by the appearance of a small parameter at the derivative in the Poisson equation in a dimensionless form, and, correspondingly, a boundary layer in ion-exchange membranes, where concentrations and other characteristics of the desalination process change exponentially. It is for this reason that the numerical study of the boundary value problem is currently obtained for initial concentrations of the order of 0.01 mol/m3. The paper proposes a new numerical-analytical method for solving boundary value problems for the system of NPP equations for real initial concentrations, using which the phenomenon of space charge breakdown (SCB) is studied.

Keywords:

system of Nernst-Planck-Poisson equations, electromembrane systems, numerical methods, desalination channel
