Osmotic energy, a little-known renewable energy source [PDF]
International Journal of Energy Production and Management, 2016 When the rivers lead into the sea, it merges two water bodies with different salinity level, releasing a large amount of energy when the solutions equilibrate its concentrations; this phenomenon is known as osmosis. With the purpose to use this energy to transform it into electricity, it has been developed a device with a semi-permeable membrane, when ...

Energy Aspects in Osmotic Processes
Desalination and Water Treatment, 2010 Water, energy and environmental issues are on the top list of the world problems. Energy is needed for augmenting our water resources. Renewable energies are hardly the answer since innovative techniques based on biofuels and biodiesel consume an incredible amount of water.
