Development and assessment of a novel osmotic heat engine for energy generation from low-grade heat
… electrical energy generation. The OHE couples pressure retarded osmosis (PRO), an osmotically driven membrane process, with membrane distillation (MD), a thermally driven membrane process. In PRO, water permeates via osmosis through a semi-permeable membrane from a low concentration feed stream …

Osmotic mass exchangers for power generation and energy recovery : analysis and analogy to heat exchangers
… for obtaining pure water, but today, reverse osmosis (RO) produces a greater percentage of the total desalinated water worldwide by a large margin. Fundamentally, an RO system is a membrane-based osmotic mass exchanger. Another type of membrane-based osmotic process, a subset of forward …

Membrane Processes for Sustainable Energy Applications
… such as Reverse Electrodialysis (RED) and Pressure Retarded Osmosis (PRO) can be used to produce electricity using salinity gradients. The less-developed alternative of RED was chosen in this work.</p><p>We demonstrate the optimization of power output using RED. The effects of several …
