摘要： A mixing apparatus for mixing relatively low salinity fluid with relatively high salinity fluid comprises a housing having an upper end and a lower end, a fluid inlet at or near the lower end, and a fluid outlet at or near the upper end, wherein the relatively high salinity fluid in use enters the housing through the fluid inlet and is discharged from the housing through the fluid outlet. A feed tube is provided and has a first end connectable to a source of relatively low salinity fluid and second end for introducing relatively low salinity fluid to the housing to mix the relatively high salinity fluid with the relatively low salinity fluid to form a fluid mixture. At least one power generator is associated with the housing, and is driven by the mixing of the relatively high salinity fluid with the relatively low salinity fluid.

摘要： A mixing apparatus for mixing first salinity fluid with a second salinity fluid, the mixing apparatus comprises a down tube having a side wall, an open upper end and an open lower end, and a plurality of apertures selectively located in the side wall of the down tube. At least some of the apertures have an arm with an opening therein about the aperture to facilitate inflow of fluid to the down tube through the openings. A fluid inlet and a fluid outlet are provided at the open upper end and open lower end respectively of the down tube so that the first salinity fluid in use enters the down tube through the fluid inlet and the apertures and is discharged therefrom through the fluid outlet. A feed tube is provided and has a first end connectable to a source of second salinity fluid having a salinity different to the first salinity fluid and a second end for introducing the second salinity fluid to the fluid inlet of the down tube to mix the first salinity fluid with the second salinity fluid to form a fluid mixture.

摘要： A hydraulic power generation system is provided for generating power using a pseudo-osmosis process which efficiently exploits the osmotic energy potential between two bodies of water having different salinity concentrations. The method and apparatus of the present invention does not require the use of a semi-permeable membrane or other specially formulated material, nor does it require heating or cooling of the fresh water or salt water solution. Moreover, the device may be used to recover energy from a wide variety of fresh water sources, including treated or untreated river run-off, treated waste-water run-off or effluent, storm-drain run-off, partly contaminated fresh water run-off, and a wide variety of other fresh water sources. The device is well suited to power production in a wide variety of geographic locations and under a wide variety of conditions. The invention has particular advantage for use in remote regions where electrical power generation by conventional means may be commercially infeasible or impractical.
