This chapter presents the most relevant advances achieved during the MIDES project in relation to material development of key elements for microbial desalination cells. The first section is devoted to electrodes. Providing a general overview of the requirements of carbon-based materials to serve either as anodes or cathodes for microbial desalination cells. Advances achieved during MIDES in the development of materials for anode and cathode application are listed. The second section is focussed on ion-exchange membranes for microbial desalination cells. General considerations for the use of these membranes are reported as well as key parameters. Finally, advances in ion-exchange membrane development, in terms of antifouling and their performance in desalination trials, achieved during the MIDES project, are reported.
