Problems solved by technology

In the process of using potassium ferricyanide as the cathode, not only the potassium ferricyanide is consumed and the cost is high, but also the used potassium ferricyanide will cause secondary pollution to the environment
While Pt / C is used as the air cathode of the catalyst, although it will not cause pollution, the high cost of Pt / C limits its practical application.
In terms of configuration, the existing reactors mostly adopt "H" structure, the exchange area between the anode chamber, cathode chamber and desalination chamber is small, and the desalination efficiency is not high

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of desalination of seawater and brackish water, microbial electrochemical systems, and microbial desalination fuel cell systems, in particular to a cylindrical biocathode microbial desalination fuel cell desalination device and method. Background technique [0002] A microbial desalination fuel cell (MDC) is a device capable of simultaneously generating electricity, desalination, and organic matter removal. Its basic configuration is a three-chamber structure, namely an anode chamber, a desalination chamber and a cathode chamber. An anion exchange membrane is placed between the anode chamber and the desalination chamber; a cation exchange membrane is placed between the desalination chamber and the cathode chamber. Under anaerobic conditions, microorganisms on the anode surface decompose organic substrates in the anolyte, producing electrons and H + ; Electrons reach the surface of the cathode through the external ci...
