The US Navy is eyeing e-fuels made from green hydrogen and captured carbon dioxide to sustain seagoing and land-based operations.
NREL Researchers Work To Transform Seawater Into Drinking Water as We Commemorate World Water Day 2021
The numbers of desalination facilities across the globe are increasing, but so, too, are brine byproducts.
Researchers from Penn State University have created a new hybrid technology which is capable of generating “unprecedented” levels of electricity by exploiting the change in salt concentrations where freshwater rivers meet saltwater oceans.
The US Navy is pushing forward with a new machine that generates CO2 and hydrogen from seawater, for liquid fuel or maybe even fuel cells.
Now Cui and his team of researchers have calculated a way to alternate the flow of river water and salty seawater through a battery to produce electricity that can be used for charging purposes. It might also be possible this same process can be reversed to remove salt from seawater to produce drinking water.
A team of researchers from Stanford University has estimated that rivers could provide about 13 percent of the world’s current energy needs, but they’re not talking about hydropower. Instead, they envision renewable energy based on the principle of entropy, as fresh water from
The U.S. Department of Energy recently announced $9 million in funding for research into the use of algae that occur naturally in seawater to produce a sustainable twofer: renewable algae biofuel and algae fodder for cattle, too. Hey, make that a threefer: studies have found that an algae diet can … [continued]
