Salinity Gradient Energy: Current State and New Trends
Engineering, 2015 In this article we give an overview of the state of the art of salinity gradient technologies. We first introduce the concept of salinity gradient energy, before describing the current state of development of the most advanced of these technologies.

Ion-plus salinity gradient flow Battery
Chemical Engineering Science, 2022 A Salinity Gradient Flow Battery (SGFB), as a novel energy-converting system, offered an alternative solution for the large-scale storage of renewable energy. Nevertheless, the commercialization of SGFB had been halted because the relatively high ohmic solution resistance in the low salinity solution. We proposed an “Ion-plus SGFB” system by internally-
