The effect of porous media on the thermal storage performance of salinity-gradient solar pond

Abstract A solar pond is a system that uses salt concentration gradient to store heat. The application of the conducive solving problems long production cycles, low brine temperature, and algae in lithium extraction process potassium enrichment process. Based on this, our research group laid porous media at bottom utilized heat storage adsorption capacity improve thermal performance pond. experimental results show foam ceramics have good ability reduce turbidity. Laying can not only increase LCZ but also help turbidity pool water. After adding media, position moves from junction NCZ LCZ. In addition, transparent film upper surface improving reducing
