Estuaries — where freshwater rivers meet the salty sea — are great locations for birdwatching and kayaking. In these areas, waters containing different salt concentrations mix and may be sources of ...
Osmotic energy, derived from salt gradients, has significant potential as a renewable energy source, although the technologies for harnessing it are still developing. One approach involves reverse ...
Ocean makes up 71% of the Earth's surface, and they also harbor one of the world's greatest yet almost untouched energy source: osmotic power. The salinity gradient where seawater and freshwater meet ...
When a reservoir of salt water is brought into contact with a reservoir of fresh water through a special kind of semipermeable membrane, the resulting osmotic phenomena make it possible to produce ...
Where freshwater rivers spill into salty seas, nature is constantly balancing chemical differences that quietly release energy. Scientists are learning how to tap that invisible power gradient, ...
A new membrane system turns the natural mix of seawater and freshwater into enough electricity to produce hydrogen, showing how simple salt differences could power clean fuel generation. (Nanowerk ...
