Increasing the power density and reducing the levelized cost of electricity of a reverse electrodialysis stack through blending

We increase the power density of a reverse electrodialysis (RED) stack by blending the low salinity feed with a higher salinity stream before the stack entrance. This lowers the capital cost of the system and the resulting levelized cost of electricity, enhancing the viability of RED renewable energ...
