Abstract
A seawater power generation system is installed beside an ocean and comprises a seawater processing apparatus, a precipitation apparatus, a separation apparatus and a power generation apparatus. The seawater processing apparatus obtains seawater from the ocean and concentrates the seawater into concentrated seawater. The precipitation apparatus heats the concentrated seawater to form a precipitate of a metal oxide. The separation apparatus heats the metal oxide and reduces the metal oxide into a metal. The power generation apparatus uses the metal as a first electrode and includes a second electrode and an electrolyte contacting the first electrode and the second electrode. Thereby, the seawater is continuously fabricated into the first electrode. The electrolyte respectively reacts with the first electrode and the second electrode in an electrochemical reaction fashion to form a potential difference between the first and second electrode and generate stable electric power.
