Electrochemically mediated adsorption is an emerging technology that utilizes redox active (or Faradaic) materials and has exhibited high salt adsorption capacity and superb ion selectivity. Here, we use a redox polymer polyvinylferrocene (PVFc) as the anode and a conducting polymer polypyrrole doped with a large anionic surfactant (pPy-DBS) as the cathode for selective electrochemical removal of inorganic and organic components. We fabricated a flow system with alternating adsorption/desorption steps incorporating an electrosorption cell and inline probes (ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, conductivity and pH sensors) to demonstrate on-the-fly quantification of the ion adsorption performance. The flow system provides a more realistic evaluation of dynamic selectivity for the active materials during cyclic operation than that based on a single equilibrium adsorption step in batch. Our results show a three-fold (cycle) selectivity toward the removal of benzoate, as a representative organic anion, against a 50-fold abundance of perchlorate supporting anion, indicating that electrochemically mediated adsorption is a promising technology for waste water remediation applications.
