Abstract
The method p1 for converting osmotic energy into hydraulic energy and the method p2 for desalination, include pressurisation/depressurisation and isochoric washing of an aqueous solution containing a salt in the presence of a selective hydrophobic nanoporous material of which the nanoporous volume within the material is only accessible to fresh water and which has a nanoporosity volume fraction ranging from 0.2 to 1 so as to convert osmotic energy into hydraulic energy or conversely to desalinate water, preferably sea water or brine.
