Abstract

Key findings

  • The model accurately simulated the removal of contaminants and salt from wastewater, demonstrating the potential of microbial membrane bioreactors for water reuse.
  • The microbial desalination cell concept was shown to be effective in reducing salt concentrations in wastewater, making it a promising approach for water desalination.
  • The model's results highlighted the importance of optimizing operating conditions, such as pH and temperature, to maximize the efficiency of the microbial membrane bioreactor.
