Collaborative Research: Selective Electrochemical Removal of Scale-Forming Mg2+ Ions in Sustainable and Energy-Efficient Water Pretreatment

One of the major challenges in water treatment and desalination is scaling—the buildup of insoluble mineral deposits that reduce the efficiency and lifespan of treatment systems, much like limescale in household appliances. Current methods to mitigate scale formation often rely on chemical additives such as softeners and antiscalants, which…
