osmotic energy conversion; mechanical or electrical energy generation. SUBSTANCE: plant has housing divided by means of semi-transparent partition into solvent- releasing non-mineralized solution compartment and solvent-accepting mineralized-solution compartment. These compartments communicate via respective supply lines with solvent and solution sources; solution compartment has spent-solution discharge line. Semi-transparent partition is made in the form of movable piston that functions as moving working part of power plant. EFFECT: simplified design; provision for direct conversion of osmotic energy. 3 dwg |
