• Energy and water autarky of wastewater treatment and power generation systems (2015, background): “A novel approach to integrate the wastewater treatment and desalination processes with concurrent electricity production resulted in microbial desalination cells (MDCs) technology [51].”
• Emerging desalination technologies for water treatment: a critical review. (2015, methodology): “Simultaneously, as the cathode chamber protons are consumed, positively charged species ionic species (such as sodium ion) migrate from the middle chamber to the cathode chamber (Cao et al., 2009).”
