SHARE THIS E-BOOK: Some extraction methods that might eventually prove beneficial include solvent extraction, molecular recognition technology, using engineered microbes, and magnetic separation, to name a few. But as new methods and technologies surface, the processes are getting more efficient, and while there is still some innovation left to be had when it comes to mining geothermal brine for lithium, the following are some of the more promising: Adsorption One of the methods researchers continue to pursue include using sorbents to adhere to the lithium for selective removal. Some sorbents developed can recover about 90% of the lithium present, including a recently tested lithium aluminum layered double hydroxide chloride sorbent, or LDH, as described in a recent study published by Environmental Science & Technology. During more recent testing, the LDH sorbent was made by intercalating aluminum hydroxide with lithium chloride, which made several [LiAl2(OH)6]+ layers in the sorbent. These layers were separated by water molecules and hydroxide ions that created the spacing requirements to allow lithium chloride to enter more readily than other ions, such as sodium and potassium. After the sorbent was loaded with the lithium chloride, it was washed with a diluted lithium chloride stream to remove unwanted ions, then washed a second time to unload the lithium chloride.

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.
