Unprecedented biodesalination rates-Shortcomings of electrical conductivity measurements in determining salt removal by algae and cyanobacteria

Abdul Mannan Zafar et al.

Summary: The study shows that measuring salt removal based on chloride ion concentration is more accurate than using electrical conductivity (EC), which is not the best parameter to evaluate salt removal using algae. Additionally, there may be misrepresentation of salt removal in some studies that solely rely on EC for estimating biodesalination efficiency.
