Abstract: A flow electrode capacitive deionization system and a method for recovering phosphorus in phosphogypsum leachate and synchronous performing brine desalination belong to the technical field of wastewater treatment and recycling. The flow electrode capacitive deionization system includes a phosphorus recovery electrodeionization module and a desalination electrodeionization module. A first flow electrode solution reservoir, a phosphorus recovery electrodeionization module cathode flow electrode chamber, and a desalination electrodeionization module anode flow electrode chamber are interconnected in a circulation. A second flow electrode solution reservoir, a phosphorus recovery electrodeionization module anode flow electrode chamber, and a desalination electrodeionization module cathode flow electrode chamber are interconnected in a circulation. Two independent flow electrode solution circulation loops are formed.
