High dietary lipid level promotes low salinity adaptation in the marine euryhaline crab (Scylla paramamosain)

open access: yesAnimal Nutrition, 2023
The physiological processes involved in adaptation to osmotic pressure in euryhaline crustaceans are highly energy demanding, but the effects of dietary lipids (fat) on low salinity adaptations have not been well evaluated.

Charge Regulation and pH Effects on Thermo-Osmotic Conversion

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2022
Thermo-osmotic energy conversion using waste heat is one of the approaches to harvesting sustainable energy and reducing associated environmental impacts simultaneously. In principle, ions transport through a charged nanopore membrane under the effect of

Membrane Permeability Threshold for Osmotic Power Plant Efficiency

open access: yesJournal of Contemporary Urban Affairs, 2017
In a context of ever-growing electricity consumption and need for less polluting sources of energy, salinity gradient power (SGP) based on osmosis is a promising technology. Salinity difference between two solutions separated by a semi-permeable membrane

Estimation of energy efficiency of the process of osmotic dehydration of pork meat [PDF]

open access: yesJournal on Processing and Energy in Agriculture, 2014
Osmotic dehydration is a low-energy process since water removal from the raw material is without phase change. The goal of this research is to estimate energy efficiency of the process of osmotic dehydration of pork meat at three different process ...

Optimization of the Energy Output of Osmotic Power Plants [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Renewable Energy, 2013
On the way to a completely renewable energy supply, additional alternatives to hydroelectric, wind, and solar power have to be investigated. Osmotic power is such an alternative with a theoretical global annual potential of up to 14400 TWh (70% of the global electricity consumption of 2008) per year.

Nanopore Functionalized by Highly Charged Hydrogels for Osmotic Energy Harvesting

open access: yesACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2019
The salinity gradient between brine and fresh water is an abundant source of power which can be harvested by two major membrane methods: pressure-retarded osmosis and reversed electrodialysis. Nowadays, the latter technology is close to real application, but it still suffers from low power yield.

Assembly of vermiculite/SnO2 composite membranes with high ion selectivity for enhancing osmotic energy conversion performance

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials
For osmotic energy harvesting based on nanofluidic membranes, aqueous instability, less-than-optimal ion selectivity, and moderately high internal resistance can somewhat restrict its performance advancement.
