Up to 5% of wastewater generated worldwide is highly saline effluent. Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) have been considered as a promising saline wastewater treatment, which uses microorganisms to convert organic compounds into electrical energy. This study investigated lab-scale MFCs to evaluate the effect of chloride at different concentrations (0, 5, 10 and 20 g/l NaCl) on the performance of the MFC by examining its electrical generation and wastewater treatment efficiency. |
