“…Pure strains or cultures and mixed cultures of exoelectrogens are generally used in MDC [13][14][15]35]. These cultures, depending on environmental factors behave differently [17,21,[36][37][38].…”

“…Usually, anaerobic sludge from industrial or domestic wastewater treatment plants, anaerobic sediment, primary industrial or municipal effluent and even farm soil contain the exoelectrogens that can be isolated from the respective sources either as pure culture or mixed culture and can be further used in the MDCs. They can generate electrical energy from organic or chemical sources such as simple carbohydrates, like glucose [13], wastes from municipal, domestic, and industrial wastewater treatment plants have been also used as the carbon source in MDCs [10,13,14] or industrial dyes [15]. Since bacteria are self-replicating, the degradation of organic matter is done without the need of replenishing catalysts.…”

“…Though MDC technology has received significant research attention over the years, the biological driving-force has not been understood yet. While only a few studies make mention of their predominant species and how such species drive the processes in the cell, most studies discuss just the source of their culture MDC [10,[12][13][14][15]. There is a wide loophole in understanding, in detail, the nature, and mechanism of these exoelectrogens used in MDC and their influence on the system, as well as their characterization.…”

“…Most of the substrates used in MFC and MDC are in the form of butyrate, oxalate, glucose, and other easily degradable substrates [35,[46][47][48]. Municipal, industrial, and domestic wastewater has also been mostly used as a substrate for the exoelectrogens in the anode chamber of MDC [12][13][14]. The mode of operation (batch, fed-batch semi-continuous, and continuous modes) at the anode chamber will depend on the configuration of the MDC system and the focus of the research [1,2,4,[12][13][14][15].…”

The tri-functional purpose of Microbial Desalination Cell (MDC) has shown a great promise in our current scarcity of water, an increase in water pollution and the high cost of electricity production. As a biological system, the baseline force that drives its performance is the presence of exoelectrogens in the anode chamber. Their presence in the anodic chamber of MDC systems enables the treatment of water, desalination of seawater, and the production of electrical energy. This study reviews the characteristics of exoelectrogens, as a driving force in MDC and examines factors which influence their growth and the performance efficiency of MDC systems. It also addresses the efficiency of mixed cultures with certain predominant species as compared to pure cultures used in MDC systems. Furthermore, the study suggests the need to genetically modify certain predominant strains in mixed cultures to enhance their performance in COD removal, desalination and power output and the integration of MDC with other technologies for cost-effective processes.

Seawater might serve as a fresh-water supply for future generations to help meet the growing need for clean drinking water. Desalination and waste management using newer and more energy intensive processes are not viable options in the long term. Thus, an integrated and sustainable strategy is required to accomplish cost-effective desalination via wastewater treatment. A microbial desalination cell (MDC) is a new technology that can treat wastewater, desalinate saltwater, and produce green energy simultaneously. Bio-electrochemical oxidation of wastewater organics creates power using this method. Desalination and the creation of value-added by-products are expected because of this ionic movement. According to assessments, recent investigations on MDC configurations have led to significant changes in their operating characteristics, as well as their design and operational factors. Additionally, the study notes the expanding uses of MDC in bioremediation, nutrient recovery, water softening, and value-added chemical manufacturing. Significant results show that the MDC system produced outstanding desalination without the need for external power, in addition to achieving wastewater treatment and energy recovery without the need for intermediary processes. When it comes to its practical application, some of the technical obstacles include keeping pH stable in cathodic and anodic fluids, increasing internal resistance using catalysts as electrode fillers, along with issues of biofouling and durability. Although MDC technology is currently being developed and scaled up, additional research on membrane fouling avoidance, material feasibility, electron transport kinetics, growth of microorganisms, and catalyst durability is needed.

The crisis of obtaining drinking water and electrical energy from clean sources has been the primary focus of researchers seeking ecologically acceptable and cost‐effective alternatives. The microbial desalination cell (MDC) has shown to be one of the most cost‐effective and promising ways for creating electricity, cleaning sewage water, and naturally desalinating water. In this work, the AEM (Anion Exchange Membrane) was used in the anodic chamber, and potassium ferricyanide in the cathodic chamber as catholyte solution. Meanwhile, SEM (Scanning electron microscopy) analyses was used to define the resulting surface morphologies. This study gave an optimization model by Central Composite Design model, where all the variables affecting the microbial desalination cell (the initial concentration of COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand), the initial concentration of TDS (Total dissolved solids) and the operating time of the cell) were entered to obtain an equation for each response (electrical energy productivity, COD removal efficiency and water desalination efficiency) in addition to study the ANOVA (Analysis of variance) for each response and study the interactions of the variables with each other that affect the response. The variables were determined for the initial concentration of (COD) from (300‐1200 mg/L) and the initial concentration of (TDS) from (15–35 g/L) and the duration of the operating time was from (4–24 h) the maximum productivity was obtained. The power was 2.2 mW, and the maximum water desalination gave 42 %, and the optimum COD removal was 35 %. In addition to diagnosing the active sludge employed and defining the kind of bacteria controlling it, this research looked at the breakdown of the yield of ion exchange membranes, which had a negative impact on the desalination process and the productivity of electrical energy.
