Let us consider an alternative perspective on climate change: The sum of solar radiation and heat generated by human activity result in a net energy input of 1.96 times that of the Sun on the Earth's surface. The expanding global population is expected to exacerbate this issue. Potential solutions are proposed, including replacement and heat recycling.

Electro-extractive fermentation for efficient biohydrogen production [PDF]
Electrodialysis, an electrochemical membrane technique, was found to prolong and enhance the production of biohydrogen and purified organic acids via the anaerobic fermentation of glucose by Escherichia coli. Through the design of a model electrodialysis

Data on ion-exchange membrane fouling by humic acid during electrodialysis
This data paper aims to provide data on the effect of the process settings on the fouling of an electrodialysis pilot installation treating a sodium chloride solution (0.1 M and 0.2 M) in the presence of humic acid (1 g/L).

Selective electrodialysis process for the recovery of potassium from multicomponent solution systems
Selective electrodialysis is a promising approach to recovering K+ from complex coexisting ionic systems. In this study, the effects of current density, the concentration of K+ and Mg2+, as well as the operating temperature on the separation process of K+

Optimization of net power density in Reverse Electrodialysis [PDF]
Reverse Electrodialysis (RED) extracts electrical energy from the salinity difference between two solutions using selective ion exchange membranes. In RED, conditions yielding a large net power density (NPD) are generally desired, due to the still large ...

Experimental and theoretical research on the electrical conductivity of a liquid desiccant for the liquid desiccant air-conditioning system: LiCl aqueous solution [PDF]
At present, the energy consumption in buildings occupies a large proportion of total energy use, and air-conditionings cost a large proportion of energy in the buildings. The liquid desiccant air-conditioning system has a good energy saving potential and
