Unconventional Dual Ion Selectivity Determined by the Forward Side of a Bipolar Channel toward Ion Flux

Chao Li et al.

Summary: The article demonstrates unconventional dual ion selectivity in a bipolar channel membrane, showing that when the membrane meets certain conditions, it can function as a selective layer regardless of which layer faces the ion flux. This discovery can potentially lead to the development of a new generation of ion-selective membranes and other separation membranes.

Facile strategy for preparing a novel reinforced blend membrane with high cycling stability for vanadium redox flow batteries

Jianfeng Xu et al.

Summary: A facile strategy for fabricating a composite membrane based on Sulfonated poly(terphenylene) (SPTP) blended with Polybenzimidazole (PBI) is designed to address the long-term stability issues of cost-effective non-fluorinated membranes for Vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs). The introduction of PBI effectively mitigates the transportation of vanadium ions and reduces the swelling ratio of the membranes. The optimized membrane exhibits lower area resistance and vanadium permeability compared to Nafion117, resulting in superior coulombic and energy efficiencies for VRFBs.

Nanopore-Based Power Generation from Salinity Gradient: Why It Is Not Viable

Li Wang et al.

Summary: The study systematically analyzes the energetic performance of nanopore-based power generation (NPG) at various process scales, revealing limitations in linearly extrapolating single-pore performance to multipore membranes. The research shows that enhancing nanopore properties has limited impact on practical process performance, and a tradeoff exists between power density and thermodynamic energy efficiency in full-scale NPG membrane modules. Additionally, the study explores the theoretical maximum energy efficiency of NPG and concludes that practical energy efficiency is limited to 42%, making the current NPG process not viable for power generation.
