Capacitive mixing as a novel principle for generation of clean renewable energy from salinity differences (CAPMIX)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2010, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2014 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

"Electricity can be generated by mixing salt water and fresh water in a controlled way. Salt water can be sea water and fresh water can be river water, so this technology can be used wherever a river flows into the sea. CAPMIX stands for capacitive mixing and is a new way of harvesting this potential power. The principal advantage of this technology is that the electricity generation is directly linked to the mixing process, no additional intermediate conversions are necessary. There is thus no need for expensive complex converters like turbines or electrodes. This makes that this type of holds the greatest promise of becoming an economical and environmental benign renewable energy plant."
