SalPower - Pressure Retarded Osmosis (PRO) Technology
FromSaltPower
SalPower is based on the technology of Pressure Retarded Osmosis (PRO). Two water sources with different salinity are mixed via a membrane to produce electricity. Water flows across the membrane and builds up pressure, and by passing the pressurized water through a turbine electricity is generated.
