Treating high salinity wastewater by using common methods like biochemical methods
evaporation and membrane treatment is difficult and costly. Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a device for converting chemical energy into electrical energy using electricigens as the catalysts. Application of MFC in wastewater treatment could lower the treatment cost due to additional electricity generation during the wastewater treatment. In recent years
using MFC to treat high salinity wastewater for lowering the treatment cost has been tested and gradually become a hot spot. The aim of this paper is to review the latest research progress of MFC for treating high salinity wastewater. The effects of salinity on electricity generation
pollutant removal
growth and community of microorganisms of MFC were summarized. The future research works of MFC for high salinity wastewater treatment are proposed on salt-tolerant microorganisms
