Electrochemical cell, system and method for ion separation and / or recovery from a liquid solution

Abstract

The present invention relates to electrochemical cell, system and method for ion separation and / or recovery from a liquid solution. The electrochemical cell comprises: - a compartment; - a first liquid electrode that is positioned in the compartment and comprises a first current collector, a first membrane, and a first electrode channel between the first current collector and the first membrane that is configured to allow a first electrode flow; - a second liquid electrode that is positioned in the compartment and comprises a second current collector, a second membrane, and a second electrode channel between the second current collector and the second membrane that is configured to allow a second electrode flow; and - a feed flow channel extending between the first and second liquid electrodes and having an inlet and an outlet.
