| "header": "Problem 3: Bi-Ion Removal Battery. A bi-ion removal battery (BDI) can intercalate cations and anions from seawater into crystalline phases analogous to those in lithium-ion batteries and store them through conversion reactions in the cathode and anode, enabling efficient seawater desalination with high ion-removal capacity and high charge efficiency. Studies show that a $\\mathrm{NaBi_3O_4Cl_2}$ electrode can simultaneously remove $\\mathrm{Na^+}$ and $\\mathrm{Cl^-}$ from seawater.", |

| "description": "On the left is a stacked structure of red blocks. Following the process indicated by the blue arrow “$\\mathrm{-Na^+, -Cl^-}$,” it becomes the central stacked structure of red and orange blocks. The process indicated by the red arrow “$\\mathrm{+Na^+, +Cl^-}$” then converts it to the structure on the right, composed of red and blue blocks. A further process indicated by the blue arrow “$\\mathrm{-Na^+, -Cl^-}$” returns it to the central structure. The legend identifies red blocks as $\\mathrm{NaBi_3O_4Cl_2}$, blue blocks as substance X, and orange blocks as $\\mathrm{Bi}$." |
