N2  - Microbial desalination cell (MDC) is a derivative technology from the microbial fuel  cell (MFC) that use current generated from oxidation of organic matter for desalinating  salty water. In this study, an existing model of MDC was studied and parametric study  was performed to study the effect of each parameter on MDC performance then the  analysis results were used for equations simplification by eliminating the ineffectual  parameters. Also, the reduced model was calibrated and validated for cyclic batch flow  using experimental literature data .The effect of different operating parameters (external resistance, temperature, substrate concentration and salt concentration) on the  performance of MDC system was studied then some modifications were added to the  model equations to be in agreement with observed trends in experimental studies
