A Microbial Desalination Cell (MDC) is a type of bioelectrochemical system that uses microorganisms to facilitate the desalination of saline water, such as seawater or brackish water, while simultaneously generating electrical energy. MDCs represent a novel approach that combines water treatment and energy generation. ### Key Features and Components: 1. **Microbial Fuel Cell Principles**: MDCs are based on the principles of microbial fuel cells, where microbes oxidize organic substrates to produce electrons.
