Introduction Lithium is a light and reactive metal that is the principal component in one of the most promising forms of high-energy-density batteries [1–3]. Current technology for all-electric vehicles is based on lithium-ion batteries and electric vehicles are expected to gain an ever-increasing share of the car market, so lithium demand and production are expected to grow proportionately with vehicle demand [1,2]. In addition to use for electric vehicle batteries, lithium batteries are slated for used in grid-scale storage for intermittent renewable energy generation such as wind and solar [4]. Lithium is also a critical component for ceramics, glass, metallurgy, air treatment products, pharmaceuticals, and polymers [4]. Lithium is used to make alloys with other metals including lead, copper, silver, magnesium, silicon, and aluminum. The alloys most commonly used in aerospace

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.
