The power of salinity gradients: An Australian example [PDF]
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2015 Abstract The development and exploitation of sustainable and environmentally friendly energy sources are required in order to resolve global energy shortages and to reduce the reliance of many countries on fossil fuel combustion. Salinity gradient energy has been considered a potential candidate for renewable energy due to the abundance of saline ...
