Energy Harvesting from Salinity Gradient

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2018
Abstract: Energy harvesting from salt water received attention started back in 1970s', but due to varying interests in the field and the growing potentials of other more promising sources, more work was required to fully establish it. This paper aims at identifying existing techniques of energy harvesting and the methodology involved determining an ...
