Generates Electricity
The reverse electrodialysis process generates an electrical current from closed loop, low pressure salinity gradient.
This current can then be utilized to help power the heat pump compressor and fans, reducing the amount of external electricity needed to operate the system.
Essentially, the RED process provides supplemental on-site power generation to run the heat pump, decreasing the electricity load.
Our initial modeling indicates the RED component could supply 30-50%+ of the heat pump's operating power needs.
So if a conventional heat pump has a COP of 4 for example, the integration of RED could effectively increase the realized system COP to levels as high as 8-10 or more with that supplemental power offset.
Waste heat recycling enables the RED-HP system to boost energy efficiency significantly beyond what conventional heat pumps or other heating/cooling technologies can achieve on their own.

Dramatically increase heat pump COP with the RED-HP system
One of the key benefits of integrating reverse electrodialysis into the heat pump system is the ability to dramatically increase the coefficient of performance or COP.
As you know, the COP essentially measures the efficiency of a heat pump, calculated as the heating or cooling output divided by the electricity input required to operate the system. Higher COPs mean less electricity is needed to generate the desired heating/cooling.
In a traditional heat pump, the COP tends to max out around 3-4 for heating mode and 5-7 for cooling, depending on the temperature differential. But with our RED-HP technology, we can potentially achieve COPs an order of magnitude higher.
Here's how it works: The reverse electrodialysis process generates an electrical current from the salinity gradient. This current can then be utilized to help power the heat pump compressor and fans, reducing the amount of external electricity needed to operate the system.
Essentially, the RED process provides supplemental on-site power generation to run the heat pump, decreasing the electricity load. Our initial modeling indicates the RED component could supply 30-50%+ of the heat pump's operating power needs.
So if a conventional heat pump has a COP of 4 for example, the integration of RED could effectively increase the realized system COP to levels as high as 8-10 or more with that supplemental power offset.
Higher COPs directly translate to lower operating costs and emissions per unit of heating or cooling output. For your residential customers, this could mean cutting their heating/cooling energy bills in half or better.
Additionally, we can leverage low-grade waste heat sources that would otherwise be vented, achieving even higher effective COPs and further reducing carlion footprints.
The breakthrough lies in the symbiotic combination of technologies - the heat pump provides the thermal driving force for the RED salinity gradient, while the RED process supplies electrical power to boost the heat pump efficiency.
So in summary, our patented RED-HP system can achieve unprecedented COP levels for residential heating and cooling by using salinity gradient power to displace a large portion of the electricity needs. This will result in significant cost and environmental benefits compared to conventional heat pumps or any other system."
