Capacitive deionization (CDI) is a potential technology to provide cost efficient desalinated and/or softened water. Several efforts have been invested in the fabrication of CDI electrodes that not only has outstanding performance but also high chance of large scalability. In this personal account, the different techniques in developing carbon-based materials are presented together with its actual effect on the surface and electrochemical properties of carbon. The categories presented are based on the studies done by the Electrochemical Reaction and Technology Laboratory, the Ertl Center, different research groups in South Korea, and selected papers from the past three years. Our perspective about research gaps and prospects are also included with the aim to increase interest for CDI research.
电容去离子化（CDI）是一种有潜力提供具有成本效益的淡化水和/或软化水的技术。人们已在CDI电极的制造上投入了多项努力，这些电极不仅具有出色的性能，而且具有大规模扩展的高可能性。在这篇个人综述中，介绍了开发碳基材料的不同技术以及它们对碳的表面和电化学性质的实际影响。所呈现的类别基于电化学反应与技术实验室、埃特尔中心、韩国不同研究小组所做的研究以及过去三年的精选论文。我们对研究差距和前景的看法也包括在内，目的是增加对CDI研究的兴趣。
