"...Research published today by the Institute of Physics journal,
Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering reveals a new method of
generating electric power by harnessing the natural electrokinetic
properties of a liquid such as ordinary tap water when it is pumped
through tiny microchannels. The research team from the University of
Alberta, Edmonton, Canada, have created a new source of clean
non-polluting electric power with a variety of possible uses, ranging
from powering small electronic devices to contributing to a national
power grid..."
