MDC were evaluated in different circuitry modes (open and closed) to assess the desalination efficiency, bioelectricity generation, resource recovery, substrate utilization and bioelectrokinetics.
In order to investigate achievable power densities of a thermochemical energy storage at technically relevant boundary conditions, a laboratory scale device using metal hydrides (LaNi4.85Al0.15 and C5®) is designed and preheating operation modes (open and closed) are analyzed.
A valve, for example, might be represented by one of two operating modes, "open" or "closed," and one of two failure modes, "stuck open" or "stuck closed". Mathematical rules outlined the possible transitions between modes and the probabilities associated with each one.
