Capacitive Deionization coupled with Microbial fuel cell to treat low concentration salt water

摘要：

Introduction Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a technology that can be used to generate electricity and to treat wastewater at the same time. As one of MFCs extended types, microbial desalination cell (MDC) (Cao et al. 2009) is a promising technology to treat salt water and needs no additional energy input. However, the concentration of salt water desalted by MDC was always higher than 5 g/L (Mehanna et al. 2010; Jacobson et al. 2011). There are two reasons. Firstly, lower salt concentration brought higher internal resistance of MDC and accordingly lower current density which led to lower desalination rate. Secondly, when salinity of the salt water was lower than that of electrolyte, the desalination efficiency would be weakened by the concentration diffusion.
