Mr. Jangbarwala added, "Osmotic pressure is a source of energy, and the differential can be used to either convert that energy to electricity or as a tool for energy storage. An exciting possibility with our unique membrane is to build an 'energy storage' system for offshore windmills. High winds are not always synchronized with the grid requirements. During the high wind periods, we could desalinate seawater using the excess electricity, and during low winds, allow the osmotic pressure differential between seawater and the desalinated water to generate electricity and feed the grid."

Additional technical background on the forward osmosis process is available at http://www.catalyxinc.com under technology/wastewater treatment.

Catalyx Inc is a privately funded technology incubator founded in 2002. For six years, it has been involved in the development of low cost, sustainable technologies for distributed renewable energy generation, green manufacturing processes and water treatment technologies. The developed technologies are placed in spin off companies for commercialization. In 2009, Catalyx will be releasing a stream of its developed technologies for commercialization.
