Description

The proposal objective is to design a microbial desalination fuel cell (MDFC) as a pretreatment to the current seawater desalination plant that will provide sustainable freshwater supply for human consumption at minimal energy cost. This will be achieved through the MDFC's innovative abilities to desalinate seawater and generate energy to sustain the long-term prosperity of people and environment.
