Nanofluidic Membranes to Address the Challenges of Salinity Gradient Power Harvesting

ACS Nano, 2021
Salinity gradient power (SGP) has been identified as a promising renewable energy source. Reverse electrodialysis (RED) and pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) are two membrane-based technologies for SGP harvesting. Developing nanopores and nanofluidic membranes with excellent water and/or ion transport properties for applications in those two membrane ...

Engineered PES/SPES nanochannel membrane for salinity gradient power generation

Nano Energy, 2019
Abstract Nature is the source of human being's creativity and always inspires people to break through the existing bottleneck of science and technology. Electric eel (Electrophorus electricus) relying on ion channel in electrocyte can convert salinity gradient energy to electricity power with potentials of ~600 V to stun prey and ward off predators ...

Two-Dimensional Nanofluidic Membranes toward Harvesting Salinity Gradient Power

Accounts of Chemical Research, 2021
The salinity gradient between seawater and river water has been identified as a promising, clean, renewable, and sustainable energy source that can be converted into electricity using ion-selective membranes in a reverse electrodialysis (RED) configuration.

Sulfonated Sub-Nanochannels in a Robust MOF Membrane: Harvesting Salinity Gradient Power

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2019
We developed a robust, crack-free ultrathin zeolite- imidazole framework (ZIF-8) membrane in-built with a sulfonate-ion-containing polymer (ZIFHep) via a vapor-assisted in situ conversion process. The sulfonated sub-nanochannels of the ZIFHep membrane afforded a rapid and selective transport of Li+ over counteranions and other alkali ions due to ...
