Abstract
3
Here we investigate the competitive electrosorption of mono- and divalent phos-
4
phate anions through electrochemical desalination and dilatometry based experiments.
5
Through in situ dilatometry, we monitor the strain at the electrode surface as anions
6
and cations are electrosorbed. Strain measurements show that the presence of diva-
7
lent ions promote a greater than anticipated electrode expansion during cation (Na+ )
8
electrosorption. The expansion observed with Na+ equaled the expansion observed
9
2− + with the HPO2− 4 . Since the ionic radius of Na is smaller than HPO4 , the symmet-
10
ric expansion suggests that divalent anions do not completely desorb during electrode

11
regeneration, causing the adverse interactions with the cation during co-ion expulsion.
12
This results in a decrease in desalination performance, indicated by decreased salt ad-
13
sorption capacity. Conversely, an expected asymmetric expansion during anion and
14
cation electrosorption occurs with monovalent phosphate anions (H2 PO− 4 ) indicating
15
that monovalent ions are capable of being effectively replaced by the cation at the
16
electrode surface.

Introduction
18
Ion separation processes are critical for many industrial, municipal, and environmental ap-
19
plications. 1 Separation processes require the use of physical (membranes), or mass-transfer
20
based operations (distillation, absorption, and adsorption). 2 Mass transport operations have
21
a high-energy demand and typically require chemical based regeneration. Whereas physi-
22
cal operations are low energy, but foul and are not intrinsically selective. Electrochemical
23
driven separations (capacitive deionization, electrochemically modulated liquid chromatog-
24
raphy, battery deionization) have demonstrated new avenues for achieving low energy ion
25
removal and are electrochemically regenerated without the need for chemicals. 3 Furthermore,
26
these approaches are beginning to achieve selectivity through the use of electrochemical
27
redox-responsive receptors. 4,5
28
Gaining molecular level insight into water|electrode interfaces is an important next step
29
needed to answer questions related to the energetics and selectivity of electrosorption. 5–7
30
Fundamental knowledge is needed regarding both the static and dynamic nature of the elec-
31
tric double layer (EDL) and interface during separation. This is critical for understanding
32
the rate limiting mechanism associated with electrosorption (adsorption and desorption)
33
in environmentally relevant conditions. While in simple systems with model constituents
34
(monovalent salts), adsorption and desorption occur at equal rates (symmetric), in systems
35
with more complex constituents (salts with varying degrees of valence and hydration), com-
36
petitive adsorption between species can alter the salt removal process. 8 One of the most 2

37
common constituents which this applies to is phosphate anions, which are well known to ex-
38
2− ist in a monovalent (H2 PO− ) state depending on the pH of the feed 4 ) and divalent (HPO4
39
source. 9–12 Owing to the potential environmental and economic considerations associated
40
with phosphorus recovery from waste streams, developing ways to recover and concentrate
41
phosphate anions is growing in importance 13–15
42
Here, we investigate the dynamics of phosphate anion electrosorption processes using elec-
43
trochemical dilatometry, 16,17 desalination testing, 18,19 and through a theoretical analysis. 20
44
Dilatometry experiments probe the phosphate anion interactions at the electrified interface
45
through measuring changes in the electrode strain during cyclic voltammetry experiments.
46
Strain measurements are also correlated with desalination and electrochemical based char-
47
acterization. The results discussed here show increased strain in electrodes with divalent
48
phosphate anions (HPO2− 4 ) during co-ion expulsion (negative polarization). Strain is associ-
49
ated with an ions inability to adsorb to the electrode surface or transport through nonporous
50
regions. In contrast, this mechanical strain is not observed for monovalent phosphate anions
51
(H2 PO− 4 ). Ineffective desorption of bulky anions may be a contributing factor leading to
52
lower desalination performance and salt adsorption capacity. These interactions may also
53
promote a degree of selectivity associated with larger ionic radii and charged species. Prior
54
results in batch desalination have suggested that divalent phosphate anions may accumulate
55
more readily at the surface because of the energetic advantage associated with screening
56
the surface charge. 21 This work presents an additional explanation related to the unfavor-
57
able chemo-mechanics associated with the co-ion expulsion of divalent phosphate anions.
58
Increased strain is observed in the electrode during divalent desorption processes and may
59
contribute to observed selectivity of divalent phosphate anions over mono-valent species.
60
Understanding and measuring competitive electrosorption-based processes is imperative for
61
separation of complex waste streams.

Materials and Methods
63
Preparation of the electrode
64
The activated carbon electrode was prepared by dispersing YP-50F activated carbon (Sanwa
65
Components International Inc), carbon black (Sigma-Aldrich) and polytetrafluoroethylene
66
(60% weight dispersion, Sigma-Aldrich) in the ratio 90:5:5 by weight in ethanol (Fisher
67
Scientific). The mixture was stirred constantly and dried on a hot plate stirrer (Fisher-
68
Scientific), until a desired consistency was produced. After the mixture was dried the carbon
69
slurry was rolled onto a graphite sheet (Alfa-Aesar) using a roller to a thickness of 0.4 mm.
70
Two electrodes with diameters of 10mm were cut out and used for the tests as working and
71
counter electrode. The weight of the electrode was 20 ± 2 mg.
72
Electrochemical Dilatometry
73
An ECD-nano-DL Dilatometer from EL-Cell (Germany) was used with gold current collec-
74
tors was used for in-situ electrosorption experiments. Three-electrode electrochemical and
75
dilatometric measurements were performed at 22±1◦ C with a Biologic VSP-300 potentiostat.
76
The electrochemical cell contained a over-sized counter electrode with a mass at least 20×
77
the mass of the working electrode. The vertical deformation during anodic and cathodic
78
scans was measured with an accuracy of approximately 15 nm and was normalized to the
79
electrode thickness at the point of zero strain.
80
Desalination testing
81
The desalination system was comprised of a flow cell with a projected area Acell = 25 cm2 .
82
The feed chamber consisted of a polycarbonate flow channel with a thickness of 0.47 cm.
83
Electrodes were placed on graphite sheets which were placed on gold-plated copper current
84
collectors. The feed flows vertically through the center of the cell. A cation (CEM) and
85
anion exchange membrane (AEM) separated the feed from electrode (Selemion AMV/CMV, 4

87
Results and Discussion
88
The degree of desalination from a capacitive deionization cell was conducted in both con-
89
tinuous (Figure 1a) and batch-mode (Figure S2) based experiments. In both series of ex-
90
periments, phosphate aqueous solutions with a lower pH (pH ≈4) resulted in a faster rate
91
of salt removal and total salt removed (∆C/C0 ) for each cycle. For the continuous mode
92
desalination based testing the energy consumption for the pH 4 electrolyte was 0.03 kWh
93
per mol, whereas the pH 9 phosphate electrolyte resulted in an increase in energy consump-
94
tion to 0.09 kWh per mol. Due to the pKa of the solution, in testing conducted in pH 4
95
electrolytes, H2 PO4 − was the dominant anion. In addition, in testing in pH 9 electrolytes
96
the dominant anion was HPO4 2− . The increase in energy consumption ascribed to the pres-
97
ence of divalent ions also resulted in a decrease in the energy normalized per adsorbed salt
98
(ENAS) from 8.3 mol per joule (pH=4) to 3.2 mol per joule (pH=9). Note that the ENAS
99
values for the phosphate anions is 2-4 times less than ENAS values reported with sodium
100
chloride. 22 This is due to an increase in the ionic radius of the phosphate anion (≥ 0.302 nm
101
hydrated ionic radius) compared to chloride ( 0.195 nm hydrated ionic radius). Due to the
102
size of the desalination systems, batch mode experiments provided further insight into the
103
potential for anion removal. Here, the energy consumption (kWh/mol) again was 2x greater
104
for pH=9 solutions (divalent anions) compared with pH=4 (mono-valent). In all tests an
105
increase in current was observed with the pH=9 solution, which was attributed to the higher
106
conductivity (Figure S1 and S2).
107
The experiments are consistent with Gouy-Chapman-Stern theory, which predicts salt
108
removal dynamics within an electric double layer (Figure 1b). 20,23 In aqueous solutions, the
109
electric double layer (EDL) is comprised of the Stern layer which has oppositely charged
110
counter-ions attracted to the surface and a diffuse layer which has a mix of counter-ions and
5
ACS Paragon Plus Environment

111
co-ions. The length at which the diffuse layer disperses into the medium, otherwise known
112
as the Debye length λD , varies inversely with the electron valance, resulting in less disperse
113
EDLs when di- or tri-valent ions are present. The Debye length is important to determine
114
the electric potential of the double layer and is incorporated into a transient model. Through
115
the introduction of valance into the model, the result predicts a decrease in salt removal with
116
an increase in valance (Figure 1b). (a )

During the dilatometry experiment, the whole cells voltage was varied through performing
118
cyclic voltammograms (CV). The associated relative height change experienced by the cell,
119
ranged from 0 to nearly 1% depending whether the anion or cation was being electrosorbed
120
into the carbon film (Figure 2a-b). Each cyclic voltammogram demonstrates a pseudo-
121
rectangular shape at 2 mV/s (slow scan rate) which is typical of electric double layer electrode 6

systems. The specific capacitance for the pH 4 and pH 9 electrolytes in a three electrode
123
configuration are 38 and 40 F/g (Figure S3). The low capacitance is attributed to the
124
transport limitations associated with phosphate anions in the micropores. Evidence of high
125
tortuosity can be observed at the potential boundaries of the cyclic voltammagrams. In a
126
highly accessible electrode the current is independent of voltage (vertical line) at the voltage
127
boundaries. 19,20,24 However, in these electrolytes there is a slight voltage dependence on the
128
current density at the voltage limits. Subsequently, as the potential swings into the positive
129
region a large expansion is observed in both the pH 4 and pH 9 electrolytes systems. The
130
large expansion is associated with the bulky anion (monovalent and divalent phosphate)
131
adsorption. The electrode expansion or strain is reversible for each successive cycle. Large 7
ACS Paragon Plus Environment

132
expansions are observed while positively polarizing the electrode in the acidic electrolyte with
133
a monovalent phosphate anion (H2 PO− 4 ) and less expansion is observed when the electrode
134
is polarized in the negative region. The anisometric charge dependent swelling of the porous
135
carbon is well documented for non-aqueous and ionic liquid electrolytes characterized by
136
bulky cations. 25
137
The assymmetric expansion behavior indicates that the carbon experiences more strain
138
during phosphate electroadsorption processes than Na+ (Figure 2c). In contrast, the expan-
139
sion process is more symmetric between positive and negative polarization swings for the
140
basic electrolyte which contains divalent phosphate anions (HPO2− 4 ) (Figure 2d). This result
141
is counterintuitive because both electrolyte systems have the same cation which suggests
142
that there is some interaction between the divalent phosphate anion (HPO2− 4 ) and cation
143
during negative polarization. When the electrode switches from positive to negative polar-
144
ization regimes the anion is expelled from the surface and replaced with a cation. During
145
this switch, co-ion expulsion dynamics can play a role in the electric double layer structure
146
and impact the efficiency of the electroadsorption processes. Furthermore, this interaction
147
may be amplified for the divalent phosphate anion, because two sodium ions are required to
148
maintain charge neutrality at the surface during the potential reversal. Thus, the symmetric
149
expansion observed in the basic electrolyte may occur because of a complex desorption mech-
150
anisms associated with the dual charged phosphate anion. The electrode expansion process
151
decreases with scan rate (Figure 2c-d) for both electrolytes (mono- and divalent anions). The
152
decrease in electrode expansion is a signal that ions are not reaching adsorption equilibrium
153
because of transport limitations in the microporous region of the electrode.
154
The dissimilar strain or expansion properties between the mono-valent and di-valent phos-
155
phate anions is more obvious when multiple cycles are presented with respect to normalized
156
time (Figure 3a-b). The asymmetric expansion profile for the mono-valent phosphate anion
157
is readily apparent at 2 mV/s through the presence of a repeating units of small and large
158
peaks. However, little to no expansion is observed at scan rates above 10 mV/s (small peaks

are completely suppressed). This is not surprising, as at higher scan rates, ionic access to
160
the interface is limited. In contrast, significant expansion occurs in the electrolyte with the
161
divalent phosphate anion at scan rates above 20 mV/s. The symmetry in expansion does
162
decrease with increasing scan rate (divalent phosphate anion), but is still readily apparent
163
indicating that the co-ion expulsion mechanism is not dependent on the kinetics of the charg-
164
ing process. Insight into the chemo-mechanics of these complex anions provides a potential
165
explanation for recent experimental results by Huang et al., which demonstrated preferential
166
2− − 9 electroadsorption selectivity of Cl− over H2 PO− 4 and HPO4 over Cl . Prior results have
167
suggested that there is a preferential adsorption and accumulation of divalent phosphate
168
anions in the double layers because there is an energetic advantage of screening the surface
169
charge with a negative two charge anion. 21 Our work extends this finding by demonstrat-
170
ing that there is also chemo-mechanical considerations at play during the co-ion expulsion
171
processes of divalent phosphate anions that do not exist for mono-valent phosphate anions.

Molecular insight into fundamental interactions that occur at relevant solid|water in-

engineering next generation materials. Electric field and electrochemical systems are being
175
increasingly investigated in water technologies as a means to mitigate degradation (fouling),
176
inform system performance (sensors), and to improve selectivity. This work investigates the
177
fundamental nature of electroadsorption processes for relevant water contaminants and pro-
178
vides insight into the origin of decreased ion separation properties for dual charged phosphate

anions in comparison to single charged phosphate anions. Designing materials that can ex-

Here we highlight the complexity associated with field-assisted separations in water applica-
