Abstract
Water desalination technologies play a key role in addressing the global water scarcity crisis and ensuring a sustainable supply of freshwater. In contrast to conventional capacitive deionization, which suffers from limitations such as low desalination capacity, carbon anode oxidation, and co-ion expulsion effects of carbon materials, the emerging faradaic electrochemical deionization (FDI) presents a promising avenue for enhancing water desalination performance. These electrode materials employed faradaic charge-transfer processes for ion removal, achieving higher desalination capacity and energy-efficient desalination for high salinity streams. The past decade has witnessed a surge in the advancement of faradaic electrode materials and considerable efforts have been made to explore optimization strategies for improving their desalination performance. This review summarizes the recent progress on the optimization strategies and underlying mechanisms of faradaic electrode materials in pursuit of high-efficiency water desalination, including phase, doping and vacancy engineering, nanocarbon incorporation, heterostructures construction, interlayer spacing engineering, and morphology engineering. The key points of each strategy in design principle, modification method, structural analysis, and optimization mechanism of faradaic materials are discussed in detail. Finally, this work highlights the remaining challenges of faradaic electrode materials and present perspectives for future research.

Abstract
Adsorption and photocatalysis are effective in removing organic pollutants from wastewater. This study is based on the memory effects of MgAl-layered double hydroxides (MgAl-LDHs) after high-temperature calcination. By introducing bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) during the reformation of the layered structure via contact with water, a composite material BiVO4/MgAl-LDHs with enhanced adsorption and visible light catalytic performance was synthesized. The effects of the calcination temperature, ratio, initial methylene blue (MB) concentration, and catalyst dosage on the adsorption and photocatalytic performance were investigated. The BiVO4/MgAl-LDHs showed better photocatalytic performance than the pure BiVO4 and MgAl-LDHs. Under the optimal conditions, the proportion of MB adsorbed in 20 min was 66.1%, and the percentage of MB degraded during 100 min of photolysis was 92.4%. The composite photocatalyst showed good chemical stability and cyclability, and the adsorption-degradation rate was 86% after four cycles. Analyses of the adsorption and photocatalytic mechanisms for the composite material showed that synergistic adsorption and visible light photocatalysis contributed to the excellent catalytic performance of the BiVO4/MgAl-LDHs. A highly adsorbent photocatalytic composite material exhibiting outstanding performance was prepared via a simple, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly method, providing reference information for the removal of organic pollutants from liquids.

Abstract
Electrochemical deionization is regarded as one of the promising water treatment technologies. Here, CoAl-layered metal oxide nanosheets intercalated by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) with an enhanced interlayer spacing from 0.76 to 1.33 nm are synthesized and used as an anode. The enlarged interlayer spacing provides an enhanced ion-diffusion channel and improves the utilization of the interlayer electroactive sites, while heat treatment, transferring layered double hydroxides to layered metal oxides (LMOs), offers additional active oxidation reaction sites to facilitate the electro-sorption rate, contributing to the high salt adsorption capacity (31.78 mg g-1 ) and average salt adsorption rate (3.75 mg g-1 min-1 ) at 1.2 V in 500 mg L-1 NaCl solution. In addition, the excellent long-term cycling stability (92.9%) after 40 cycles proves the strong electronic interaction between SDS and the host layer, which is validated by density functional theory calculations later on. Moreover, the electro-sorption mechanism of LMOs that originated from the reconstruction of the layered structure based on the "memory effect" is revealed according to the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy peak shifts of Co element. This strategy of expanding the interlayer spacing combined with heat treatment makes LMOs a competitive candidate for electrochemical water deionization.

Abstract
The shortage of fresh water resources is one of the major challenges facing this planet. Capacitive deionization (CDI) techniques that are deemed to be highly efficient and require low capital cost have attracted widespread attention in the last few decades. In this work, the cubic ternary metal oxides NiCo4MnO8.5 (Ni-Co-Mn-O) are synthesized by facile hydrothermal method for enhanced symmetrical CDI. Electrochemical measurements illustrate that the Ni-Co-Mn-O possesses low internal resistance and ion diffusion impedance. As a result, the salt removal capacity of the Ni-Co-Mn-O electrode increases from 26.84 to 65.61 mg g-1 by varying the voltage from 0.8 to 1.4 V in 1.0 × 10-2 m NaCl solution, while the charge efficiency stabilizes at ≈80%. After 20 cycles, the capacitance retained is 64.27%, which is due to the irreversibility of Co2+/Co3+ and Mn2+/Mn3+ and the release of Ni3+ from the Ni-Co-Mn-O electrode after long desalination/salination cycles.

Abstract
The transition metal-based layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been extensively studied as promising functional nanomaterials owing to their excellent electrochemical activity and tunable chemical composition. In this work, using acetate anions (Ac-) as intercalating elements, the NiCo-LDH nanosheets arraying on Ni foam with different amounts of Ac- anion intercalation or volume of hydrothermal solution were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method. The optimized amount of Ac- anions expanded the interlayer space of LDH nanosheets from 0.8 to 0.94 nm. An ultrahigh specific capacity of 1200 C g-1 at 1 A g-1 (690 C g-1 without Ac- anions), an outstanding rate capability of 72.5% at 30 A g-1, and a cycle stability of 79.90% after 4500 cycles were mainly attributed to the higher interlayer spacing of Ac- anion intercalation. The enlarged interlayer spacing was beneficial for stabilizing the α-phase of LDHs and accelerating the electron transport and electrolyte penetration in the electrochemical reaction. This work sheds light on the mechanisms of the interlayer spacing regulation of NiCo-LDH nanosheets and offers a promising strategy to synthesize functional nanomaterials with excellent electrochemical performance via integrating their unique layered structure and interlayer anion exchange characteristics.

Abstract
Electrochemical capacitors charge and discharge more rapidly than batteries over longer cycles, but their practical applications remain limited due to their significantly lower energy densities. Pseudocapacitors and hybrid capacitors have been developed to extend Ragone plots to higher energy density values, but they are also limited by the insufficient breadth of options for electrode materials, which require materials that store alkali metal cations such as Li+ and Na+. Herein, we report a comprehensive and systematic review of emerging anion storage materials for performance- and functionality-oriented applications in electrochemical and battery-capacitor hybrid devices. The operating principles and types of dual-ion and whole-anion storage in electrochemical and hybrid capacitors are addressed along with the classification, thermodynamic and kinetic aspects, and associated interfaces of anion storage materials in various aqueous and non-aqueous electrolytes. The charge storage mechanism, structure-property correlation, and electrochemical features of anion storage materials are comprehensively discussed. The recent progress in emerging anion storage materials is also discussed, focusing on high-performance applications, such as dual-ion- and whole-anion-storing electrochemical capacitors in a symmetric or hybrid manner, and functional applications including micro- and flexible capacitors, desalination, and salinity cells. Finally, we present our perspective on the current impediments and future directions in this field.

Abstract
Capacitive deionization (CDI) is considered one of the most promising desalination technologies for obtaining fresh water from saline water. In this work, we synthesized a hollow core-shell Co-MOF@Fe/Co-LDH (Co-Fe-LDH) material by developing a strategy to simultaneously grow Co/Fe-LDH on the surface of a Co-MOF precursor in situ. Owing to the increase in the specific surface area of the hollow structure and the Faradaic process of a layered double hydroxide (LDH), the Co-Fe-LDH material exhibits high electrical double layer (EDL) capacitance and pseudocapacitance, which significantly improves the salt adsorption of the material during CDI (34.2 mg/g in a 600 mg/L NaCl solution at 1.2 V). The adsorption for NaCl in this work is approximately 2.5 times the maximum salt adsorption capacity (SAC) of LDH materials applied in nonmembrane CDI (NMCDI). This work may provide a promising model for the application of hollow LDH materials that exhibit pseudocapacitance in CDI.

Abstract
Capacitive deionization (CDI) is an emerging desalination technology for effective removal of ionic species from aqueous solutions. Compared to conventional CDI, which is based on carbon electrodes and struggles with high salinity streams due to a limited salt removal capacity by ion electrosorption and excessive co-ion expulsion, the emerging Faradaic electrodes provide unique opportunities to upgrade the CDI performance, i.e., achieving much higher salt removal capacities and energy-efficient desalination for high salinity streams, due to the Faradaic reaction for ion capture. This article presents a comprehensive overview on the current developments of Faradaic electrode materials for CDI. Here, the fundamentals of Faradaic electrode-based CDI are first introduced in detail, including novel CDI cell architectures, key CDI performance metrics, ion capture mechanisms, and the design principles of Faradaic electrode materials. Three main categories of Faradaic electrode materials are summarized and discussed regarding their crystal structure, physicochemical characteristics, and desalination performance. In particular, the ion capture mechanisms in Faradaic electrode materials are highlighted to obtain a better understanding of the CDI process. Moreover, novel tailored applications, including selective ion removal and contaminant removal, are specifically introduced. Finally, the remaining challenges and research directions are also outlined to provide guidelines for future research.

Abstract
We report a method to rationally control the aspect ratio of layered double hydroxide for use as a barrier coating for food packaging films. The reconstruction of a Mg2Al-layered double oxide (LDO) in concentrated aqueous glycine solutions produces dispersions of Mg2Al-LDH nanosheets. The nanosheet thickness decreases and diameter increases with increasing reconstruction time from 16 to 96 h. We observe a limiting nanosheet aspect ratio of ca. 336 ± 170. These Mg2Al-LDH nanosheets can be dispersed in PVA to give a water-based dispersion that can be used to coat flexible polymeric films. Oxygen transmission rate (OTR) of a PET film decreases when the thickness of the dried coated layer increases, an OTR of <0.005 mL·m-2·day-1 is observed for a coating with thickness of 1175 ± 101 nm.

Abstract
Capacitive deionization (CDI) has aroused extensive attention as a prospective technology for different ionic species removal from aqueous solutions. Traditional studies on the adsorption and desorption of fluoride from wastewater are energy-intensive and may have harmful effects on the environment. Herein, the feasibility of fluoride removal from wastewater by CDI has been investigated. NiCoAl-layered metal oxide (NiCoAl-LMO) nanosheets and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composites (NiCoAl-LMO/rGO) were synthesized and used as CDI electrode materials for fluoride ion removal. The as-obtained NiCoAl-LMO/rGO with unique structure and high conductivity is beneficial to the adsorption of fluoride ions. In addition, the introduction of Co element in the laminate enhances the pseudocapacitive behavior of the electrode material. As expected, the CDI system with NiCoAl-LMO/rGO composites as anode and activated carbon treated by nitric acid (H-AC) as cathode exhibits outstanding defluorination performance. The maximum adsorption capacity of NiCoAl-LMO/rGO, 24.5 mg g-1, can be reached when the initial NaF concentration is 500 mg L-1 at 1.4 V applied voltage. The composites also show good cycle stability over 40 consecutive cycles of the CDI defluorination process. The excellent defluorination performance of NiCoAl-LMO/rGO makes it possible for its practical application in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Electrode materials which undergo anion insertion are a void in the materials innovation landscape and a missing link to energy efficient electrochemical desalination. In recent years layered hydroxides (LHs) have been studied for a range of electrochemical applications, but to date have not been considered as electrode materials for anion insertion electrochemistry. Here, we show reversible anion insertion in a LH for the first time using Co and Co-V layer hydroxides. By pairing in situ synchrotron and quartz crystal microbalance measurements with a computational unified electrochemical band-diagram description, we reveal a previously undescribed anion-insertion mechanism occurring in Co and Co-V LHs. This proof of concept study demonstrates reversible electrochemical anion insertion in LHs without significant material optimization. These results coupled with our foundational understanding of anion insertion electrochemistry establishes LHs as a materials platform for anion insertion electrochemistry with the potential for future application to electrochemical desalination.

Abstract
Hybrid capacitive deionization (HCDI) is a derivative of capacitive deionization (CDI) method for water desalination, in which one carbon electrode is replaced with a redox-active intercalation electrode, resulting in substantial improvements in ion removal capacity over traditional CDI. The search for high-performing intercalation host compounds is ongoing. In this study, two-layered manganese oxides (LMOs), with sodium (Na-birnessite) and magnesium (Mg-buserite) ions stabilizing the interlayer region, were for the first time evaluated as HCDI electrodes for the removal of ions from NaCl and MgCl2 solutions to understand structural/compositional dynamics and electrochemical stability of LMO electrodes over extended cycling. Both materials demonstrated excellent initial ion removal performance with the highest capacities of 37.2 mg g-1 (637 μmol g-1) exhibited by Mg-buserite in NaCl solution and 50.2 mg g-1 (527 μmol g-1) exhibited by Na-birnessite in MgCl2 solution. The performance decay observed over the course of 200 ion adsorption/ion release cycles was attributed to two major phenomena: oxidation of carbon electrode and evolution of the structure/composition of LMO electrodes. The latter involves disorder in stacking of Mn-O layers and changes in the interlayer spacing/interlayer ions reflecting the composition of the solution being desalinated. This work highlights the importance of understanding the interactions between the HCDI electrodes and solutions containing different ions and the structural analysis of redox-active material in intercalation electrodes over the course of operation for gaining insight into the fundamental processes governing desalination performance and developing next-generation HCDI systems with long-term electrochemical stability.
