The invention relates to a power generating apparatus (10) for utilising the chemical energy of a flowing ionic medium (100), in particular waste water, comprising a frame (12) and an anode (14) and a cathode (16) fixed to the frame (12) and together defining an open space (200), the space (200) between the anode (14) and the cathode (16) having an inlet opening (210) to allow the flowing ionic medium (100) to enter the space (200) and an outlet opening (220) to allow the flowing ionic medium (100) to leave the space (200), and the space (200) is separated from the outside by means of a flow slowing element (20) which allows the ionic medium (100) to pass through the inlet opening (210). The invention also relates to a system for generating electricity and a method for utilising the chemical energy of a flowing ionic medium (100), in particular waste water.
A power generating apparatus (10) for utilising the chemical energy of a flowing ionic medium (100), in particular waste water, characterised by comprising a frame (12) and an anode (14) and a cathode (16) fixed to the frame (12) and together defining an open space (200), the open space (200) between the anode (14) and the cathode (16) having an inlet opening (210) to allow the flowing ionic medium (100) to enter the open space (200) and an outlet opening (220) to allow the flowing ionic medium (100) to leave the open space (200), and wherein a flow slowing element (20) on the apparatus (10) controls flow rate of the flowing ionic medium (100) through open space (200).
