Abstract

Key findings

  • SMPs in SBMBRs at short SRTs exhibit higher concentrations and different compositions compared to those at long SRTs.
  • The SMPs in SBMBRs at short SRTs show higher reactivity and potential for nutrient removal and desalination.
  • The microbial desalination cell concept is demonstrated to be feasible in SBMBRs at short SRTs, with potential for water desalination and nutrient recovery.
