“…Large-scale treatment systems utilizing RF fields would appear to have great potential in industrial applications where products such as bottles on a production line could pass through a high-frequency field generator for sterilization. Water or oil pipelines could be lined with an electrified antimicrobial material surface to counter biofilm formation, and it could even be possible to develop polymeric conductive pastes made using ionic liquids to coat all kinds of surfaces including pipeline interiors [100].…”

SummaryThis review will summarize the significant body of research within the field of electrical methods of controlling the growth of microorganisms. We examine the progress from early work using current to kill bacteria in static fluids to more realistic treatment scenarios such as flow-through systems designed to imitate the human urinary tract. Additionally, the electrical enhancement of biocide and antibiotic efficacy will be examined alongside recent innovations including the biological applications of acoustic energy systems to prevent bacterial surface adherence. Particular attention will be paid to the electrical engineering aspects of previous work, such as electrode composition, quantitative electrical parameters, and the conductive medium used. Scrutiny of published systems from an electrical engineering perspective will help to facilitate improved understanding of the methods, devices and mechanisms that have been effective in controlling bacteria, as well as providing insights and strategies to improve the performance of such systems and develop the next generation of antimicrobial bioelectric materials.

“…[5][6][7] The optimized design of these devices requires the mechanistic spatiotemporal understanding of ionic arrangement and charge transport in electrolytes. Although the physicochemical aspects of electrolyte solutions have been extensively studied, a series of recent experimental and computational results [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] reflects knowledge gaps even in the context of basic science.…”

“…Theoretically (i.e., excluding the ion-pairing question 22 ) the upper limit of 'concentrated electrolytes' pertains to molten salts, which about room temperature are also being referred to as ionic liquids (IL), 5,6 i.e., solvent-free electrolytes. Besides the multiple applications, IL either with or without dilution also pose several physicochemical properties that extend the phenomenology of concentrated electrolytes: (i ) multiple timescales, 17,32 (ii ) self-assembly, [33][34][35] and (iii ) non-monotonic variation (exhibiting qualitatively three distinct regions) of EDL with concentration, 15,36 a.k.a., the phenomenon of under-screening.…”

The increasing number of experimental observations on highly concentrated electrolytes and ionic liquids show qualitative features that are distinct from dilute or moderately concentrated electrolytes, such as self-assembly, multiple-time relaxation, and under-screening, which all impact the emergence of fluid/solid interfaces, and transport in these systems. Since these phenomena are not captured by existing mean field models of electrolytes, there is a paramount need for a continuum framework for highly concentrated electrolytes and ionic liquids. In this work, we present a self-consistent spatiotemporal framework for a ternary composition that comprises ions and solvent employing free energy that consists of short and long range interactions, together with a dissipation mechanism via Onsagers' relations. We show that the model can describe multiple bulk and interfacial morphologies at steady-state. Thus, the dynamic processes in the emergence of distinct morphologies become equally as important as 1

“…With these special properties, ILs have been widely used in many applications, such as batteries, 24,25 catalysis, [26][27][28] drug delivery 29,30 and solvents [31][32][33] . A recent patent described a FO process to use ILs as draw solutions, but didn't mention the regeneration methods.…”

The thermal stability, thermal-responsive solubility and UV-vis absorption spectra of the IL were also studied in detail.
