SHARE THIS E-BOOK: Why lithium? Energy and mining companies, as well as governments around the world, are funding research initiatives to find the best methods for “mining” geothermal brines for the valuable metals they contain, which can include silica, manganese, zinc, and, what this ebook focuses on, lithium. Depending where the geothermal brine is located, it could potentially be rich in lithium, which is one of the main components used in rechargeable lithium ion-battery manufacturing. As we mentioned in prior chapters, the cell phone and electric car markets continue to grow, and forecasts expect them to grow substantially...so will the demand for this valuable metal. So how are companies recovering lithium from these geothermal brines, and what is the best method for doing so? The best lithium extraction methods The potential for mining geothermal brine for lithium has been recognized for decades, yet many methods and technologies, which are still being tested and have yet to break through commercially, can be inefficient or costly. Membranes foul, pipes corrode, land or energy requirements skyrocket, and companies often find themselves frustrated with the many difficulties than can arise while managing these often-problematic streams.PDF Image | LITHIUM EXTRACTION from Samco

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)
