1. 21. Faradaic Reactions in Capacitive Deionization : A Comparison of Desalination Performance in Flow-through Cell Architectures

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : John Bradley; Miranda Carlström; [2023]
   Keywords : Capacitive deionization; Faradaic reactions; Flow-through CDI; Upstream anode; Downstream anode; Desalination Performance; pH fluctuations;

   Abstract : Capacitive Deionization (CDI) is an energy-efficient desalination technology that utilizes an electric field to extract ions from water. Flow-through CDI systems show potential for superior desalination performance compared to traditional flow-by CDI; however, they face the challenge of increased occurrence of Faradaic reactions, leading to undesired by-products and reduced energy efficiency.

5. 24. Comparing energy efficiency of Leaky integrate-and-fire and Spike response neuron models in Spiking Neural Networks

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Majd Dawli; Imran Bahed Diva; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are a type of neural network that is designed to mimic the way neurons function in our brains. While there have been notable advancements in developing SNNs, energy consumption hasn't been studied to the same extent. This gets especially relevant with steadily increasing network sizes.
