How nanomaterials can trigger a new source of energy

When you want to disgorge a cucumber, you sprinkle it with salt. This creates a very salty solution on its surface that causes water to move from the inside of the cucumber to the outside. This is an example of osmosis. The key point is that the water moves under the action of a driving force, called the osmotic pressure, caused by the concentration difference of salt. This force is also important in our harnessing of blue energy, a sustainable type of power from sea and river water. Here, St©phane Pleutin, Ph.D, on behalf of materials database Matmatch, explains the process and the potential value of nanomaterials.
