Question:

A total of 86,000 gal/day of an aqueous solution of 3,000 ppm of NaCl is to be desalinized to 400 ppm by electrodialysis, with a 40% conversion. The process will be conducted in four stages, with three stacks of 150 cell pairs in each stage. The fractional desalinization will be the same in each stage and the expected current efficiency is 90%. The applied voltage for the first stage is 220 V. Each cell pair has an area of 1,160 cm2. Calculate the current density in mA/cm2, the current in A. and the power requirement in kW for the first stage.
