Humanity needs a huge amount of energy to ensure the processes of life and production. The usual method of energy generation based on the combustion of hydrocarbons has a negative impact on the environmental situation, which forces us to look for alternative energy sources. The so-called reverse electrodialysis process is becoming one of the promising energy sources. It consists in obtaining "green" electricity by mixing concentrated and dilute salt solutions. Thus, for example, it is possible to continuously generate energy in places where rivers flow into the seas. The development of materials and the improvement of technologies for obtaining "green" electricity is a promising direction in the modern chemical industry.
