in Phase 2 to produce a lithium-enriched eluate to feed a conversion process to produce Li2CO3 and potentially LiOH·H2O. In Phase 3, design optimization developed during pilot testing will be scaled up to a 15,000-mt-per-year LCE operation. The steps for lithium extraction are shown in Figure A-5. After bromine extraction, the brine is pre-treated to remove impurities before the ion-exchange process generates a lithium-enriched eluate. The concentrated LiCl eluate is converted to LiOH via electrolysis, during which addition of sodium chloride produces chlorine gas that is used to generate dilute HCl for stripping of the ion-exchange sorbent. Evaporation, crystallization, and drying complete production of LiOH·H2O. The LiOH solution can be carbonated, filtered, dried, and micronized to produce Li2CO3. Figure A-5. Schematic diagram of Anson’s proposed bromine and lithium extraction process Anson Resources (2020) A.8 Pure Energy Minerals Pure Energy Minerals Clayton Valley project is in Nevada where they plan to produce 11,500 mt per year of lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LiOH·H2O; LHM) from brines containing up to 221 mg/L lithium that comprise a resource of 247,000 mt of LHM in saturated basin sediments from ~150–1,000 m below surface. Tenova has developed a novel extraction process that was confirmed with a mini-pilot test using a synthetic brine to match the physical and chemical properties of naturally occurring Clayton Valley brines. The process is schematically shown in Figure A-6. 37 This report is available at no cost from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) at www.nrel.gov/publications.PDF Image | Lithium Extraction from Geothermal Brines

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 (Standard Web Page)
