There exists a huge potential for the generation of energy from the mixing of saltwater and freshwater. The potential is 2.6 TW, which is more than the global electricity consumption (2.0 TW). Two membrane-based technologies exist to convert this potentially available energy into useful power: pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) and reverse electrodialysis

Extraction of Salinity‐Gradient Energy by a Hybrid Capacitive‐Mixing System
ChemSusChem, 2017AbstractSalinity‐gradient energy (SGE) is a renewable energy source available wherever two solutions with different salinity mix. Capacitive‐mixing (Capmix) is a technology that directly extracts the SG potential through the movements of ions in high‐ and low‐concentration solutions.

Salinity Gradient Energy Conversion Using Permselective Organic Liquid Membranes
ECS Meeting Abstracts, 2020The increases of worldwide energy consumption and the concern about the environment have made us pay attention to eco-friendly and renewable energy, such as solar power, wind power, water power, geothermal power, biofuel energy, etc. [P. A. Owusu and S. Asumadu-Sarkodie, Cogent Eng., 3, 1167990 (2016)].

Exergy Analysis-Potential of Salinity Gradient Energy Source
Journal of Energy Resources Technology, 2018Mixing of fresh (river) water and salty water (seawater or saline brine) in a controlled environment produces an electrical energy known as salinity gradient energy (SGE). Two main conversion technologies of SGE are membrane-based processes: pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) and reverse electrodialysis (RED).

Blue Energy: Salinity Gradient for Energy Conversion
2015Similar to a difference in elevation, potential energy is also associated with a difference in salt concentration so that electric power can eventually be produced by exploiting the salinity gradient between freshwater of rivers and seawater. Unfortunately, exploiting the salinity gradient for power production is not so easy as waterfalls.

Energy Conversion from Salinity Gradients by Forward Osmosis–Electrokinetics
The Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 2014A direct energy conversion technology based on electrokinetic (EK) phenomenon has attracted increasing attention during recent years. However, an external driving source (e.g., hydrostatic pressure) is needed to produce an EK flow in microchannels. Since the required driving pressure becomes significant when the size of channels shrinks, the EK energy ...

Unraveling Flow Effect on Capacitive Energy Extraction from Salinity Gradients
ACS Applied Materials & InterfacesThe harvesting of salinity gradient energy through a capacitive double-layer expansion (CDLE) technique is directly associated with ion adsorption and desorption in electrodes. Herein, we show that energy extraction can be modulated by regulating ion adsorption/desorption through water flow.
