The authors made a study on the electrophoretic concentration of sea water by using the ionexchange membranes prepared by “Paste method”. As a result, they derived from the characteristic properties of the membranes, the theoretical relations which expressed the concentration and the flow rate of the concentrated sea water, the current efficiency and the cell voltage.
Also, the authors measured those influences to be exerted by the species, concentration, temperature, current density, agitation degree et al of the solution upon the characteristic properties of the membranes.
By using the characteristic propertiis of the membranes and the theoretical relations obtained, the authors calculated the results of the electrophoretic concentration of sea water, and made a comparison with the experimental results reported in their previous paper. As a result, a reasonable agreement was found between these results.
