Simultaneously produce soft water and power from salt based water conditioners

Salt based water conditioners and water softeners can be used for small power production making home and commercial water processing a miniature power plant. Simultaneously produce soft water and power. For homes may only be less than a kilowatt per day, but for commercial buildings may be 175 kW or more per day. For large desalination plants, may amount to hundreds or thousands of kilowatts of power production per day.

The development of a particular mechanism for harvesting salinity-gradient power (SGP) known as reverse electrodialysis (RED).

What is Brine

What is brine?

In general, brine is any solution with an extremely high concentration of salts, such as sodium chloride, which can occur either naturally (as with seawater, deep-water ocean pools, salt lakes, producer water from oil and gas drilling) or as a byproduct of industry. These byproducts, or brine waste streams, are typically highly concentrated salt solutions that, in some cases, contain more than twice the amount of concentrated salts than natural brine solutions.

Brine waste streams can also be highly concentrated with total dissolved solids (TDS), such as waste streams in many chemical manufacturing processes, and they can be some of the most challenging to treat or discharge because their composition and purification requirements are dynamic and complex.

Some examples of brine waste created as a byproduct of industry include:

-cooling tower and boiler effluent

-reverse osmosis (RO) and ion exchange waste/reject streams

-produced water from extracting oil and natural gas

chlor-alkali and chemical plant waste

-acid rock and mine drainage

-food preservation and manufacturing waste streams

-desalination waste from potable water creation

irrigation runoff

Our novel solution is treating this solution considered and expensive headache, into a battery technology system.
