Degrading water quality problem and unreliable water supplies have been considered as major obstacles threatening the rapid urbanizing China. Water desalination is a key technology offering an appropriate route to improve the quality and quantity of pure water. Graphene aerogel is an excellent and novel candidate as a capacitive deionization (CDI) electrode material for its excellent characteristics, high surface area, environmentally safe. Incorporation of TiO2 nanoparticles into the graphene aerogel proved to be an effective approach to enhance the electro absorption, decrease polarization of the surface, and thus decrease physical adsorption of electrode. Moreover, nitrogen doped graphene has attracted intensive interest due to its good catalytic activity, high electrical conductivity, large surface area and good chemical stability. In this study, a novel TiO2/N-doped graphene aerogel (TGA) hybrid will be synthesized by a hybrid hydrothermal process. To evaluate the desalination behavior of TGA electrode, the proposed composite electrode was investigated under different factors during CDI process on NO3- solution. The influence of modifier proportion and experimental conditions on the ability of TGA electrodes will be examined. Electrochemical properties of TGA sample will be obtained by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and constant current charge／discharge experiment．It is expected that TGA would have distinct performance due to unique designed of the nanofibrous morphology that avoids blocking pores surface and open interfacial pathway to increase the adsorption rate of ions from salt solution to electrode surface. The amount of incorporated TiO2 and nitride will be optimized to achieve the highest desalination efficiency. This study will be envisioned to fabricate a multifunctional graphene-based aerogel and promote their practical applications in water treatment.
