Wave energy and solar energy coupled iontophoresis power generation device and method

Abstract

The present invention discloses a wave energy and solar energy coupled iontophoresis power generation device and method. In the device, the top of a first chamber is a high-light-transmission wall surface, the side surface of the first chamber is in open communication with seawater, and the first chamber is provided with a first electrode immersed into the seawater; a second chamber comprises a closed lightproof wall surface and is provided with a second electrode immersed into seawater; an external circuit is connected with the first electrode and the second electrode; a composite nano-film capable of generating the photoelectric poising effect comprises a cation selective channel, a transmembrane potential difference is generated on the first side, close to the first chamber, of the composite nano-film through sunlight irradiation; and based on the pressure difference generated by the waves and the transmembrane potential difference, cations in the seawater directionally migrate fromthe first chamber to the second chamber through the cation selective channel to form ionic current, and electrons in an external circuit flow from the first electrode to the second electrode to formcurrent.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This technology uses waves or sunlights from different sources like wind turbines to generate electricity that helps move particles through membranes made up mostly of water molecules called hydrogel networks (Hydrogel). These charged droplets create tiny currents when they come close enough together. By doing this, these charges help transfer electrons between them - allowing atoms inside each particle to become mobile without being affected by gravity altogether. Consequently, it becomes possible to use sea ice ocean tides or other natural resources instead of burning coal, resulting in more sustainability and environmental benefits over conventional methods such as thermal nuclear reactor systems.

Problems solved by technology

Technological Problem: Current Solar Photovoltage (SPV) Power Generation System designs suffer from poor performance due to their complexity and limited space allocation capacity. Additionally, there is currently lack of efficient and stable sea waves energy harvesters suitable for island applications such as coastline fishery and offshore drilling platforms.
