Sea ice desalination under the force of gravity in low temperature environments
چکیده انگلیسی
In winter 2009 and 2010, 9000 m3 and 12,000 m3 of sea ice, respectively, were collected from Bohai Bay and stored in a desalination pool. In 2009, the experiment lasted 80 days, and produced 4500 m3 of desalinated water with the salinity of 0.8‰. By contrast, the experiment of 2010 lasted 90 days and yielded 6700 m3 of water with the salinity of 1.4‰. Experimental results showed that under the force of gravity and low temperature, brine pockets within the sea ice were gradually drained out and sea ice was therefore converted from saline ice to freshwater ice. In this process, ambient temperature significantly affected drainage volume and salinity. When temperature rose, drainage volume increased and salinity decreased. Soluble salts decreased at different magnitudes during the course of gravity-induced desalination, in which chlorides showed the largest magnitude of decrease and sulfates the lowest. pH increased as a result of increasing sodium ion concentration. Insulation measures yielded higher rate of freshwater production by extending the duration of desalination. Shortening the period of desalination while maintaining high yield is worthy of further attention in studying gravity-induced sea ice desalination.
