摘要
In this work, we used a hybrid system composed of a Microbial Desalination <span style="font-family:Verdana;">Cell (MDC). This system allows, at the same time, the treatment of </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">wastewater and the production of electrical energy for the desalination of saltwater. </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">MDC is a cleaning technology used to purify wastewater. This process has</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> been driven by converting organic compounds contained in wastewater into electrical </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">energy through biological, chemical, and electrochemical processes. The</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> produced electrical energy was used to desalinate the saline water. The objective of this work is the desalination or pre-desalination of seawater. For this, </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">we </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">have established a theoretical model consisting of differential equations de</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">scrib</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">ing the behavior of this system. Subsequently, we developed a program on</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">MAT-</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">LAB software to simulate and optimized the operation of this system</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> and to promote the production of electrical energy in order to improve the desalination efficiency of the MDC. The theoretical re</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">sult shows that the electrical current production is maximal when the methanogenic growth rate</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">equal to zero</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">, increases with the increasing of influent substrate concentration and the efficiency of desalination increased with flow rate of saline water.</span>
