Evaporative lithium production from brine: other producers • Operators in Chile and Argentina, transform the brine to product offsite • Evaporation ponds take 18 months to precipitate out other salts and produce a lithium chloride stream which is then converted to lithium carbonate and then from carbonate to lithium hydroxide • Low lithium recovery, extent depends on Mg/Li ratio • Significant water consumption through evaporation of brine Generalised evaporation type flow sheet14 Medium-high SO4 brine High-Ca brine Halite, gypsum ponds Sylvinite ponds Carnallite ponds NaCl, CaSO4 NaCl, KCl KCl•MgCl2•6H2O MgCl2•6H2O Some MgCl2 product for roads Heat to 60-70°C Na2CO3 Carbona-tion / precipitation LiCl•MgCl2•7H2O LiCl leached Potash recovery Bischoffite ponds LiCl drained Lithium carnallite ponds Potash plant Storage piles Storage piles Move to Antofagasta area HCl, NaOH, H2SO4, extractant H3BO3 waste End liquor still has 1% Li KCl product Na2CO3 MgCO3 Ca(OH)2 Li = 60,000 ppm Li2CO3 SX to remove B Remove Mg Remove Mg, Ca Filtering / drying Li2CO3 Starting brine1 (ppm) Na 71,700 Ca 310 Li 2,5002 Cl 160,400 Br 50 K 18,500 Mg 9,600 B 400 SO4 14,600 14PDF Image | Direct Lithium Extraction

Product and Development Focus for Infinity Turbine
ORC Waste Heat Turbine and ORC System Build Plans: All turbine plans are $10,000 each. This allows you to build a system and then consider licensing for production after you have completed and tested a unit.Redox Flow Battery Technology: With the advent of the new USA tax credits for producing and selling batteries ($35/kW) we are focussing on a simple flow battery using shipping containers as the modular electrolyte storage units with tax credits up to $140,000 per system. Our main focus is on the salt battery. This battery can be used for both thermal and electrical storage applications. We call it the Cogeneration Battery or Cogen Battery. One project is converting salt (brine) based water conditioners to simultaneously produce power. In addition, there are many opportunities to extract Lithium from brine (salt lakes, groundwater, and producer water).Salt water or brine are huge sources for lithium. Most of the worlds lithium is acquired from a brine source. It's even in seawater in a low concentration. Brine is also a byproduct of huge powerplants, which can now use that as an electrolyte and a huge flow battery (which allows storage at the source).We welcome any business and equipment inquiries, as well as licensing our turbines for manufacturing.| CONTACT TEL: 608-238-6001 Email: greg@infinityturbine.com | RSS | AMP |
