Abstract

The modern concepts on the origin of electroconvection (EC) are surveyed briefly and the known mechanisms of this phenomenon are classified. Factors that influence the EC character and intensity at the surface of ion-exchange membranes are analyzed, such as electrical and geometrical heterogeneity of the membrane surface, its degree of hydrophobicity, and the surface charge. The EC mechanism is shown also to depend on the applied potential difference and the rate of solution flow between membranes. The mechanism of the EC-induced gain in the mass transfer is elucidated, the possible gain in the mass transfer is estimated, and the prospects for using the EC for reducing the membrane fouling caused by sedimentation and formation of organic deposits are assessed.
