Boron removal from saline water by a microbial desalination cell integrated with donnan dialysis
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
Boron has toxic effects on plant growth and thus its removal is necessary from desalinated saline water for irrigation application. Microbial desalination cells (MDCs) are a new approach for effective desalination but boron ...
Life cycle assessment of osmotic microbial fuel cells for simultaneous wastewater treatment and resource recovery
(
Springer Verlag
, 2019 , Article)
Purpose
An osmotic microbial fuel cell (OsMFC) is derived from the integration of a forward osmosis (FO) membrane into a conventional microbial fuel cell (MFC), with enhanced performance in bioelectricity generation from ...
Effect of the organic load on salt removal efficiency of microbial desalination cell
(
Desalination Publications
, 2018 , Article)
Microbial desalination cell presents a novel concept for wastewater treatment, salt removal and bioelectricity generation in a single system. In this study, the effect of organic load on salt removal in air-cathode up-flow ...
Improved salt removal and power generation in a cascade of two hydraulically connected up-flow microbial desalination cells
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
A novel two chamber up-flow microbial desalination cell (UMDC) was designed for evaluating desalination of real seawater with simultaneous wastewater treatment and energy generation. Two UMDCs were hydraulically connected ...
