Nanopore-Based Power Generation from Salinity Gradient: Why It Is Not Viable [PDF]

open access: yesACS Nano, 2021
In recent years, the development of nanopore-based membranes has revitalized the prospect of harvesting salinity gradient (blue) energy. In this study, we systematically analyze the energetic performance of nanopore-based power generation (NPG) at various process scales, beginning with a single nanopore, followed by a multipore membrane coupon, and ...

Impact of hydrodynamic conditions on optimum power generation in dual stage pressure retarded osmosis using spiral-wound membrane

open access: yesEnergy Nexus, 2022
The Dual Stage Pressure Retarded Osmosis technique is considered for power generation. The influence of feed flow rates, hydraulic pressure, and pressure drop on mass transfer and solute diffusion in a full-scale membrane model was investigated for the ...

Improvement in the Power Output of a Reverse Electrodialysis System by the Addition of Poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate)

open access: yesElectrochemistry, 2021
Salinity gradient energy generated by the contact between seawater and river water is one of the promising renewable energies. In the reverse electrodialysis (RED), salinity gradient energy is directly translated into the electricity.

The Effect of Trace Ions on the Performance of Reverse Electrodialysis Using Brine/Seawater as Working Pairs

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2022
Harvesting the salinity gradient power (SGP) between concentrated brine discharged from seawater desalination installations and seawater and converting into electric energy by reverse electrodialysis (RED) is a promising technique. However, trace ions in

Progress and prospects of two-dimensional materials for membrane-based osmotic power generation

open access: yesNano Research Energy, 2022
The electrical energy that can be harnessed from the salinity difference across the sea water and river water interface can be one of the sustainable and clean energy resources of the future. This energy can be harnessed via the nanofluidic channels that

Salinity-gradient power: Evaluation of pressure-retarded osmosis and reverse electrodialysis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Membrane Science, 2007
A huge potential to obtain clean energy exists from mixing water streams with different salt concentrations. Two membrane-based energy conversion techniques are evaluated: pressure-retarded osmosis and reverse electrodialysis. From the literature, a comparison is not possible since the reported performances are not comparable.
