Abstract
AbstractRecently, the rational design and development of efficient faradaic deionization electrodes with high theoretical capacitance, natural abundance, and attractive conductivity have shown great promise for outstanding capacitive deionization (CDI)‐based desalination applications. Herein, the construction of novel FeOOH hybrid heterostructures with Na and Cl dopants (e.g., Na‐FeOOH and Cl‐FeOOH) via a robust hydrothermal strategy is reported, and an asymmetric CDI cell (Na‐FeOOH//Cl‐FeOOH) comprising Na‐FeOOH and Cl‐FeOOH working as the cathode and anode, respectively, is assembled. The multiple coupling effects of the specific structural features (e.g., enriched porosity, hierarchical pore alignment, and highly open crystalline framework), enhanced electrochemical conductivity, and optimized ion‐transfer property endow the FeOOH hybrid electrode with improved electrochemical performance. Impressively, the Na‐FeOOH//Cl‐FeOOH cell demonstrates a superior salt adsorption capacity (SACNaCl) of 35.12 mg g−1 in a 500 mg L−1 NaCl solution, a faster removal rate, and remarkable cycling stability. Moreover, the pseudocapacitive removal mechanism from the synergetic contribution of the Na‐FeOOH cathode and Cl‐FeOOH anode account for the significant desalination promotion of the Na‐FeOOH//Cl‐FeOOH cell.
