This work characterizes and comparatively assess two cation exchange membranes (PSEBS SU22 and CF22 R14) and one bipolar membrane (FBM) in microbial electrolysis cells (MEC), fed either by acetate or the mixture of volatile fatty acids as substrates. The PSEBS SU22 is a new, patent-pending material, while the CF22 R14 and FBM are developmental and commercialized products. Based on the various MEC performance measures, membranes were ranked by the EXPROM-2 method to reveal which of the polymeric membranes could be more beneficial from a complex, H2 production efficiency viewpoint. It turned out that the substrate-type influenced the application potential of the membranes. Still, in total, the PSEBS SU22 was found competitive with the other alternative materials. The evaluation of MEC was also supported by analyzing anodic biofilms following electroactive bacteria's development over time.
