OTEC and salinity power and Salinity gradient

Energy flows from salinity gradient to OTEC and salinity power.

OTEC and salinity power (energy) and Salinity gradient (energy): 1 relationship.

How they are linked

1. Energy flow

Physical flow · 100% of flow · Salinity gradient → OTEC and salinity power

Mixing fresh and salt water through membranes yields usable pressure or current.

  • 100% of Salinity gradient's energy goes this way

Built from the site data on production routes, energy flows, industry value chains, input-output tables and prices.
