cooled in oven slowly for 12 h and after that mixed with 1 M HCl to form HMn2O4. Adsorbent capacity was found as 10.5 mg Li/g adsorbent approximately and it was observed that as pH of the initial lithium chloride solution increases, the capacity value also increases. In another study by the same group [79], the adsorbent capacity was increased by changing the Mn/Li ratio to 1.5 and keeping the other variables constant during the synthesis. In the following study in 2006, the researchers investigate the application of the adsorbents in recovery of lithium from sea water by designing an adsorption column operating at 200 L/h [80]. After the column was filled with 60 kg of lithium manganese oxide, it was fed with 140 m3 of sea water in 30 days. Finally, the column was washed with HCl solution and after drying, 151.7 g of precipitated salt was acquired. This salt has a composition of 10.35 % LiCl, 38.3 % NaCl, 0.89 % KCl, 36.9 % CaCl2 and 5.3 % MnCl2. In another run in the same column for 150 days, the final composition was found as 33.3 % LiCl, 20.4 % NaCl, 3.3 % KCl, 8.2 % MgCl2, 13.4 % CaCl2 and 19.4 % MnCl2. The breakthrough curve gathered from the column was reported as in Figure 1.4 [80]. Figure 1.4 Breakthrough curve for 150 days operation Yoshizuka et al. published their last study on lithium adsorption in 2011. In this article, they integrated additional ion exchangers on lithium chloride separation process in order to purify lithium chloride more and get rid of foreign ions like sodium and magnesium [81]. The process started with feeding sea water into the adsorption column, filled with lithium manganese oxide. Then column was eluted 23PDF Image | SEPARATION OF LITHIUM FROM 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)
