largely ascribed to the larger free energy of hydration of these co-existing ions, which hinders the access of these ions to the adsorption sites. Another effective way to fabricate mixed matrix membranes incorporating ion sieves is the use of nanofibers via electrospinning. Nanofibers have unique structural properties such as high specific surface area, high porosity, and favourable morphology. A poly-(acrylonitrile) (PAN) nanofiber blended with an H1.6Mn1.6O4 lithium ion-sieve was fabricated by electrospinning [62]. The as-prepared nanofibers exhibited a lithium adsorption capacity of 10.3 mg gā1, high lithium separation factors of 99ā5312, and minimal adsorption loss (< 4%) after ten cycles. Similar electrospun mixed matrix nanofibers dispersed with particulate lithium ion-sieves of H1.6Mn1.6O4 were prepared to achieve superior adsorption capacity and selectivity towards Li+ (Fig. 4) [63ā64]. In addition to the pressurised flow system and flow-through systems, a lithium ion-sieve composite electrodialysis membrane prepared by magnesium-doped lithium manganese oxide is another interesting lithium recovery technique [65]. The as-prepared membrane not only avoided acid generation in the electrodialysis separation process but also showed high Li+ removal efficiency with a removal rate of 1.44 mmol/h.

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)
